Dear brothers and sisters
I have decided to focus totally on my dreams. I have to make some big changes in my life if I want to succeed. I will be gone for a long period of time. I might be gone for 1 year, 2 years or perhaps even more. I am going to miss you all, especially the long term members (those of you who have been in the forum for more than one year). I truly mean that from the bottom of my heart.I thank you for your friendship and the support you gave me. I have the emails of some of you. Hopefully we can keep in touch.
I have enjoyed reading your posts and learned many things from you. Just like everyone of you I am a student of life. Every day I strive to get better than yesterday. And everyday I try to do my best to get more knowledge. I have realized that I know almost nothing when it comes to the wonders of the earth and the universe. I believe that "Learning is a never ending journey."
If I ever said anything that offended any of you, or hurted you, forgive me for my mistakes. I believe that it's human to make mistakes. And I am not a perfect, nor will I ever be. But I will try to do my best. Because that's the only way I can become the person I wanna be. Even dough I have achieved some of the things I wanted to achieve, this is just the beginning.
I want you to know that you are the most open-minded and good-hearted people I have ever talked to. "If you have a dream don't wait for some distant day to come."

You have unknown potential inside of you. You have the power to reach unbelievable heights.
"If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything."
I will continue to walk in the path of Islam, if God wills.
I hope I will see you again in the future.
Peace and Love
David.Goodbye Pal! handshake

On Behalf of free minds
I CAN'T SAY GOODBYE TO YOU
You say it would be better
If we stopped seeing each other
If you had only met me first
When you were free
'Cause now you've got commitment
I should not expect things from you
That you can't give to me
Oh, but baby, can't you seeI can't say goodbye to you
No matter how I tried
You're such a part of me
Without you, I would die
Deep, in the heart of me
I know that you and I
Were meant to be be together
I can't tell you goodbyeNeither of us planned
That we would fall in love this way
But since we did
Why should we be apart
Sometimes, some things happen
That can never be explained
Now, it's too late for me
I've already given you my heartI can't say goodbye to you
No matter how I tried
you're such a part of me
Without you, I would die
Deep, in the heart of me
I know that you and I
Were meant to be be together
I can't tell you goodbyeWho knows why we choose
When we choose the ones we love
Who knows why we do the things
We do when we're in love
I know that you're a decent man
And you try to do what's best
But how can I forget
All the feelings we have sharedI can't say goodbye to you
No matter how I tried
You're such a part of me
Without you, I would die
Deep, in the heart of me
I know that you and I
Were meant to be be together
I can't tell you goodbye(You and I were meant to be, forever)
I can't tell you goodbye........peace

salam david,
you did not tell us what you have planned to do apart from the vague "to focus totally on my dreams".
my guess (pardon me please) is you have planned for a solitude ("I will be gone for a long period of time. I might be gone for 1 year, 2 years or perhaps even more.", no matter how much demanding the word "gone" is on the imagination.
in our experience, we need such a phase in life, i.e. a break to take a look at what we were just now, to evaluate and reform ourselves as and when necessary. we couldn't agree with you more when you said "I have to make some big changes in my life if I want to succeed."
our practice must conform with the theories we hold to be the truth. both must walk hand-in-hand. and whatever we are today is the 'akhirat'/end of what our theories and routines were. if we were not happy with what we were just now, then we need to have a tweak in the theories and a change of routines before we could even dream of a change of future.
routine (darr) is the instrument of change, the one without which no alteration happens. so nothing will improve without a reform of ways (AAamila salihan). oftentimes, a break of routines (diyar) is required. otherwise we remain the person of yesterday.
therefore we are more than happy (with a tinge of jealousy though) for your brave decision. our prayers are always with you indeed, and may God guide you on the correct path, insha-Allah.
peace

but, we just thought that a period 1 or 2 years is too long for such a good-hearted and brave person like you. it will just be months, we hope. insha-Allah. -
Gosh I didn't expect this when I came back to the forum...it sounds like you are either going on a physical journey or as someone else mentioned, planning for solitude. Whatever following your dreams means I wish you the very best - may Allah keep you safe and guide you always. peace
@ afridi220 cute. hehe
@ Jack people on here may well focus on the negative but don't worry, people everywhere are doing that lol. I think it's actually better here! laugh

Salam...
I have changed my mind. I decided to come back to the forum. I realized that my dreams were too impractical, so I can not achieve them yet. I have to wait until the future. Because then, I will hopefully have more time and recources to achieve them. But I have not given up. I am just taking a break from idealism.
Ohh, by the way. Even dough I didn't achieve any of my dreams, I achieved one of my goals. I got a job that I love. A job that is in alignment with my values, my abilities and my interests.
I have missed this forum. And I am glad to be back.
Peace and Respect,
David. -

Nah, I don't miss boring people Like I said I missed the forum. I just missed the forum. You know, the colors and aesthetics of this forum ;D Didn't you know that I am a materialist hiding in islamic garment? Lol. Maybe I would have missed you all if you bought me a plane ticket to Miami. I deserve a vacation ;D
Okey, to be honest I missed you all. But only a little
I hope you are satisfied now nsws. So, do you wanna buy me a ticket? hehe.
