Salaam,

I believe that each one of us have a purpose in life.  I feel mine is to treat children and alleviate the anxiety of mothers in general who worry about the smallest hiccup of their newborn !! 
The time I am not at the hospital , I try to work on my personal goals related to Islam and fitness. 
I believe that we do need to be keep sight of our ultimate destination.  The more I learn about our deen, the more blessed I feel to be born into Islam. I hope every day I can improve and be better Muslim than the day before. 
I almost feel the same way about fitness as well !  Health is a gift and I value it.   I am hoping to eventually be able to do a head stand or few pull-ups ? We will see !  Having said that , I have come to realize that fitness is a journey not an end point goal !
