Living in Hope
English book, p. 7
By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan
FOREWORD O ften, I have heard people say that they find themselves at an impasse. All doors are closed to them. To such people I say that we may find that some doors are locked along the way, but there are always others that remain open and it is just a question of entering the right one to reach our destination. In the world of today, success lies within the grasp of those who are alert to the opportunities around them. Failure is the result not so much of a lack of opportunities but the lack of will to grasp such opportunities as exist, and to pursue one’s course with determination and energy. According to the creation plan of God, this world is a world of possibilities and not a world of frustration. God has created this world full of wonderful opportunities. Here, when matter perishes, it becomes energy; when darkness comes, a new light emerges from its depths; when one building falls, it leaves a place for another construction. So it is with events in the life of man. From every failure emerges the chance of new success for everyone.
