Love or Hate?

" ...And perhaps you love a thing
and it is bad for you..."
I'm not sure if I am supposed to laugh or cry about this but it seems like I'm more devastated than anything. I'm so sick right now. I feel like throwing up and having a super bad headache. So here's the story...
People close to me would have known that I am lactose intolerant. I can't drink milk and day by day, it gets worst. I can't have cheese nor milk. But the fact is I LOVE MILK. Or maybe, I did. I LOVE-D MILK. But it's so crazy because everyone on the internet are saying things like 'they have never met any lactose intolerant person who actually STOPS drinking it?'??
Okay, so back to the story... Last week, I kept drinking Farmhouse milk. My digestive system decided to kick me in the intestines and tried to kill me badly. It was WORST than period cramps because you can literally SIT on the toilet for 30 minutes. BY THE WAY, I am not exaggerating nor being dramatic.
So okay... I felt like I should stop drinking at all cause. So one fine day this week, my SMARTIE pants decided to grab a Marigold pudding which I didn't read that it was a MILK pudding. Yes, read that again once more. MILK PUDDING!!!!!!!!!!!

The same thing happened, my digestive system decided to act up and starts stabbing me from the stomach all the way down... So I told myself, "Okay, I'm going to fast for a day. And clear my digestive system and drank Yakult. Be cautious of whatever I eat." And guess what, this morning I decided to drink MILO which I thought would not hurt at all. I was wrong and this 'catastrophic' event has really taken a toll on my body especially my digestive system. I really hate any kinds of milk and in any form right now. I really get so scared to consume anything with dairy in it. Not even milkshakes/ice blended drinks etc.
It's funny because this reminds me of a sentence from the Quran, Surah Al-Baqarah Ayat 216, "Perhaps you hate a thing that is good for you, and perhaps you love a thing that is bad for you. And Allah knows, while you know not." And when I read back that ayat, it hit me right in my heart because nowadays I've been feeling restless and hopeless. I've been applying for jobs here and there but none got back to me. Till it makes me worry and changing my resume for so many times. I kept thinking, "You know, what's wrong? Is this normal?" I also see lots of recruitment agencies recruiting but I wouldn't want the bad history to happen again to me. Then I thought back again, "Am I fussy? What do I really want? Am I being so spoilt to not get out of my comfort zone?" And it gets me so stressed up and everything. But while all these are happening, I forget one of my biggest blessing and something I should actually focus on, baby CNQ. This baby was already something out of my comfort zone and maybe that's why I have never ever gave my 200% on it. Imagine from a cup of milk, I get to reflect on my whole life and really calm me down through tough times. Ma shaa Allah!
I hope everyone will make it and get through hardships. May Allah s.w.t grant us success and whatever we want in life and akhirat! Aamiin Aamiin!
