Has the Tsunami made you want to change your lifestyle?

Something I have been thinking about eversince I heard/read the news.

Upon hearing news of the Tsunami, did you make a choice to perhaps be a better person, live a better lifestyle, change old bad habits, or anything of this nature? Did it lead you to introspection? Do you have any justifications for why you think it occured? Do you pray more now than you did before?

Have you actually taken any steps to change, or does it remain a desire? Perhaps you are fine with who and what you are and it hasnt changed your perspective/attitude at all?

Feel free to answer any of these questions, or none at all if you wish.

Dont know if this thread will get any replies, but just wanted to ask, to see what guppies are thinking.

Thanks.

Sorry if someone posted a similar thread about this in the recent past, but I havent been around for months, so dont know. blush

I did change... i have thought about the tsunami disaster and its causes and it just makes me more and more sad as i think about it.... it is indeed a punishment from Allah(swt) and may Allah(swt) make us realize that and fix ourselfs :(
