• 1. The Prayer and Spirituality

You know when you see people praying or meditating?

They seem so tranquil and spiritual.

Honestly.

This is what I needed. All these things I was chasing were not giving me pleasure. They were just causing more problems. But I thought they would give me pleasure.

Ever wondered why?

Because we are addicted to them. In my case, it was sex drugs and rock and roll.

This may not be the case for you. But for many of you, your ancestors were Muslim. So it would be in your blood.

But one thing is for sure.

It doesn't matter what religion your ancestors were. You will be guided if God wants to.

And more importantly, if you want it.
