How many good words do we lock inside & fear spilling out? How many nice feelings do we refrain from sharing; thinking that by doing so, we'll be stronger?! :(

I just read one of the most beautiful things I've ever read.. It came from someone who says it out loud whenever & wherever.. In the short time I've known her, I saw in her some beautiful stuff that you'd hardly get to see nowadays.. Well, my dear M. said: "My family is the reason I get up every day!!After 18 years, my husband still makes me laugh and gives me butterflies in my stomach when he smiles!!!!!" How gorgeous is that! MashaAllah :D

It's really good to live in peace starting from within yourself all the way out :) And that doesn’t come easily.. It comes after connection.. A real strong connection; with God, with yourself & with all that surrounds you..

And one of the best connections that I love experiencing, is connecting with the past.. Whether mine, or others’.. Last night, after talking about “our” national day, I started recalling all different things that happened on that day on each new year.. I remember when I was a bit younger, there was this roundabout -that was there for years- which was decorated in this simple way that always brought me joy.. It’s now no more than a memory that draws a smile on my face :)

One of the words that also gives me joy whenever it’s said is: “Labbayk”.. At a young age, our Qur’an teachers made this beautiful small ka’ba-like black box to teach us how to perform hajj.. God, what memories that day brings me! It felt like flying! Man, that’s my number one wish: Hajj! Khaaaaaaaloooooooooooo, I’m sooooooooo happy for you guys! You’re chosen, by HIM, from amongst millions; to be there this year, inshaAllah :D Mubarak inshaAllah uncolty :D

Labayka Allahuma labayk, labayka la shareeka laka labayk.. Inna alhamda, wa inni’mata laka walmulk, laaaaaa shareeka lak :D
Here I am at your service, oh Lord, here I am - here I am.. No partner do you have.. Here I am.. Truly, the praise and the favor are yours, and the dominion.. No partner do you have.. :D

Beyond words!

“Allah holds the master plan and it's already written

The pens are withdrawn, the pages are dry... it's written!

Looking back on my life

Life that's gladly been given to me

Open my eyes and embrace the smile

Given to you & I”

~ Outlandish ~

La illaha illa Allah :)
Allaaaahu Akbar :)
Alhamdulillah :)

And yet, there are words left unsaid..

P.S. Let's fast the "nine days" together :)

M O S H Y <3

Moshy is my childhood's 'best friend', with whom I learned more about the different colors of life..

But with time, & around the seventh grade we went our separate ways; the waves of life took her away to a new land & distance did come on the way.. After years, we talked briefly over the phone, without seeing each other.. And only last night, I saw her picture in her white dress, that one that every girl dreams of! Goose bumps & tears didn't leave me & thoughts & memories haunted me ever since! How? When? What? We're not kids anymore? I mean today, I was counting the exam papers & kids in my class, & mistakenly counted them as 32 while they were only 31! Was I considering myself one of them?!!!! Moshyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy got married! Wooooooorld! My Moshy got married! Habeebet alby!

~

I was thinking, you know, there is a nice trick I use sometimes to see more into people: I just think to myself, they were a kid once, easy sara, easy on them; they weren't born like so.. Seeing Moshy's eyes, they were the very same! With all the make up & what not not, I saw the same old Moshy! When did she grow to become a beautiful young lady living with a man all on her own? Am I looking like her? When did we grow so fast? You know what was the first thought that crossed my mind after seeing that pic? Does he know the Moshy I know? Will he take care of her? Does he know how fragile she is? My Moshy? Does he know that she is a great song writer? Did she tell him about the songs we sang together & about that delicate artist in her? Did she tell him how her house used to smell like? Did she tell him how good her dad took care of her & that he should do the same? Did she tell him that she's never been touched by another man & that she's as pure as the freshest bud? Did she tell him that she hates lies & that she's never lied & expects him to do the same? Did she?

~

All I can do now is pray & pray & pray for you Moshy.. May Al Wadood grant you both the joy that fills your hearts & may it pour out to the world that surrounds you.. May your love grow & fill our world with all that is gracious & blessed.. Amen <3

Remember Moshy? remember this:

One M loves S, Two S loves M, Three M & S, 1 2 3 I love you <3

** My Everything **

It's amazing how ........................ Isn't it? It always makes me wonder about so many things, & of those things: "do I really wanna know what's there waiting for me? Do I?".. Of course I rely totally on His Will, but something's always gotta give!

Ya Allah! You Are Truth! You Are Light! You Are My Everything! You know what brothers & sisters, it's pretty relieving having Him as your everything! IT IS!

Whenever I'm happy, I get this tingly feeling in my chest, coming right from my heart, & I always wonder if there's a physical theory behind it, & I don't even care now if there's one; 'cuz right now, that's how I feel, & it feels good! I wish I can share it with everybody..

This is exactly how I feel now!

Allahu Akbar :)

Their Nile.. My Nile..

Will I be able to drink from it anytime soon? Which land will carry me next? Where to? Questions that I never find the answers to in the 'teacher's edition'..

When someone gets real weak & you feel paralyzed & don't know what to do to help, look into Qasim's face.. Trust me, you'll feel joy hitting you right in the saddest part engraved deep down inside of you & turn it into a positive push.. A push that will help you fix things on the other

side that will eventually strengthen that weakness you couldn't help 'em loved ones with :)

Nothing goes to waste, ever!

Alhamdulillah..

"I heard this old story before

Where the people keep on playing for their metaphors

But don't leave much up to the imagination,

So I, wanna give this imagery back

But I know it just ain’t so easy like that

So I turn the page and read the story again

and again and again

It sure seems the same, with a different name

We're breaking and rebuilding

and we're growing

always guessing

Never knowing

We're shocking but we're nothing

We're just moments, we're Clever but we're clueless

We're just human, amusing and confusing

Were trying but where is this all leading?

We'll Never Know

It all happened so much faster than you could say disaster

Wanna take a time lapse and look at it backwards

Find the last one and maybe that’s just the answer that we're after

But after all we're just a bubble in a boiling pot

Just one breath in a chain of thought

We're moments just combusting

We feel certain but we'll never, never know

It sure seems the same, give it a different name

We're begging and we're needing

and we're trying and we're breathing

Never knowing

We're shocking but we're nothing

We're just moments, we're Clever but we're clueless

We're just human, amusing and confusing

We're helping, rebuilding and we're growing

Never Know

Knock, knock coming door to door

To tell ya that their metaphor is better than yours

And you can either sink or swim things are looking pretty grim

If you don’t believe in what they're spoon feeding

Its got no feeling so I read it again and again and again

It sure seems the same so many different names

Our hearts are strong our heads are weak

We'll always be competing

Never knowing

We're shocking but we're nothing

We're just moments, we're Clever but we're clueless

We're just human, amusing and confusing

But the truth is all we got is questions

We'll Never Know

Never Know

Never Know"
