When the Mighty Fall!

Dear Diary,

This is a true story:

He was one of the most respected, most admired people in his environment. He was respected for his manners and ethics that he showed. He was admired for his generosity to all those around him, and most of all, to his community. What we saw in him was the loving man to his family and friends, and espicially his children, and also the kindness to the strangers. He dedicated his life and health for his work. His friends devoted themselves for helping him keep his empire standing, to be the best in all times. They did not hesitate in giving him their lives because they knew what kind of a man he was. He was loved by all. He was an idol!

Everything was so quiet and peaceful. He and his family were happy for what he established so far, and they even hoped for more. His friends were with him all the way. He was at his top of his achievments when suddenly.. everything came to an end!

Yes, when he thought it was his ultimate, everything he had, everything he accomplised simply vanished! After scrutiny, it turned out to be that HE had some other plan in his mind! The same generous kind man was also rapacious! He infringed the trust that had been given to him by those who loved him and respected him. He cheated on every single person, including his "nation", his people, his family, and himself! He fell, and he fell hard! And when the MIGHTY falls, he takes with him the closest people around him. Those people who looked up to him went down with him as a price of their devotion and loyality.

He lived in castles, now he is living in the worst place on earth.
He was admired, now he is despised.
He was free, now he is confined!

***

Why? Weren't you happy with what you had? You had the whole world in your hands, everything you wished for was there down your feet, and you wanted more?! Look what "more" led you to. You broke the hearts of many people "your MIGHTY". Can you think of the way your children feel now? How about your wife, did you even think about her? And those who gave you their lives and been loyal to you, didn't you think that they'd fall when you do? You ruined their lives and you took them from their families!

I still cannot believe that all of this happened to you!

I hope Allah forgives you..
I hope this tragedy would go away..
I hope you are not what they said you were!
and I hope you gain your freedom someday..

I feel sorry for you.
