Gift Boxes from Allah

I have in my hands two boxes
Which Allah gave me to hold
He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black,
And all your joys in the gold."

I headed His words, and in the two boxes
Both my joys and sorrows I store
But though the gold became heavier each day
The black was as light as before.

With curiosity, I opened the black
I wanted to find out why
And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole
Which my sorrows had fallen out by

I showed the hole to Allah, and mused aloud,
"I wonder where my sorrows could be
"He smiled a gentle smile at me
"My child, they're all here with me."

I asked, "Allah, why U give me the boxes,
Why the gold, and the black with the hole?"
"My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings,
And The black is for you to let go……!!!"

So always be thankful to Allah for his blessings.
