Dear God,
You have given me an ocean of bounties that I do not deserve. You have given me the most beautiful friends, the most compassionate and understanding mother, brother, and sister-in-law. You have given me a tremendously beautiful father, please rest his soul in peace in the barzakh. Please shower your mercy on him as You are always showering Your mercy on us all. I feel so happy to be in a state of contentment and ease. Please preserve this feeling. Please make easy for me any hurdles that I must come across. I fear the state of despair and hopelessness for I have experienced it before. But it is amazing how you always bring me out of that state even when it feels like it will last forever. Please prevent my thoughts from roaming about and into past painful memories. Please help me to be optimistic and to look forward to positive things. Please protect me from Your Justice and Your Wrath and shade me under Your Mercy and Forgiveness. I have many, many shortcomings and deficiencies which I hope you will overlook and help me to improve in. Please make the path to attaining closeness to You easy for me. Please guide me to what is the right and best niche for me in this world so that I can help serve Your creations. Ameen.
