Glowing device .

 It’s ironic sometimes we wait to learn things the hard way . We ignore the little messages hints and glimpses we get along the way . The little beeps . Modern day cell phone while meant as a convenience it has become such an inconvenience . When one think about it . The more time one affords to keep the convenience aside is almost in proportion to one’s own productivity in a given day . When our phones are glued to our hands how much of our brain do we get to use literally . Our eyes see the glowing screen and we use our fingers to scroll as one hand holds this device meant to be a means of convenience . As our fingers do the scrolling so do our eyes and our brain . Our brain is confused as it struggles to figure out what we are looking for . In the process of looking for what we don’t know what our mind it self gets deeper in to the confusion . Is there really something that meaningful we can find on this glowing screen or the real meaningful things lie out of the screen . For sure the screen holds its share of meaning but it is how we use our time away from this screen that determines almost what we get from this screen . As we all know 24 hours starts ticking as a day begins . 24 hours . Seconds into minutes and minutes in to hours and so goes our time . Modern times with all of its conveniences has made people busy but the question remains busy doing what ? We look at this glowing device when we are bored when we are happy one tends to do little with out it . Unless we keep this aside and look away from it our life gets in to a meaningless struggle as we look in to the screen for laughs useless texts exchanged as we backbite with out realising it . It’s a sad state .

There was a time people recalled looked up to owning a cell phone . I am sure people had no idea back then where it will take us . And look at us now .!  To end with today I learned a lesson the hard way . Be careful while writing a text it’s not that important and check throughly before you send a text . 

Ramadan day 16

 Its a Tuesday morning in Ramadan, Alhamdhulillah. The 

Second half of Ramadan going on. How much has our souls and hearts been cleansed during this Ramadan? Humans and all animals are subjected to cleaning and humans know that cleaning only js not enough we need cleansing from sins, namely repentance , we need to clean our hearts namely tazkiya. Each of us has different struggles , packaged with different levels of patience courage strength etc. some peoples strength and struggles are always not so obvious. Nevertheless their strength will not go without cleansing the soul if exercised with iman and patience. As children grow up and become young adults, their test papers get harder they need to think more they need to put things in perspective. Also it is the time to realise that human beings are weak and things do not always go according to our wishes and plans. That is what makes this life. Life is figuring it out sorting it out and getting organized what needs to be done for the hereafter . Yes life is all about realizing we are mere travelers . The world will measure courage and success . But everything is not always how the world sees it. Hence make every day a new chance to rise and grow to get closer to Allah SWA. Let every day be a day that you work on cleansing tour heart and helping others . Let every day be a day in which your thoughts have a place for others . Exercise love towards others . Pray for others . And let the angels say aameen and pray for your well being. Alhamdhulillah for a new day of Ramadan and a new day. We are not guaranteed tomorrow. But tor today Alhamdhulillah. 

Ramadan day 11

 May this Ramadan our tired souls and hearts be cleansed. May we gain more clarity . May our herts find peace. May we find a beautiful shifa. May we heal inside and outside. May we gain more confidence. May we learn to love one another. May we learn to make the most of each and every day of this Ramadan and our lives. 

In knowing nothing lasts for ever.......

Nothing lasts for ever...
A fact of life,
Nothing good or bad lasts for ever...
As a matter of fact!

Events happen in life,
we meet people in life,
for a reason,
and at times,
for a season!

they leave a message,
leave an impact,
leave a memory,
Sometimes a knock or
A lesson meant for a lifetime.

And then people are always
like travellers,
they come and go...!
And then leave a memory on the way.

We all are indeed travelling
and are travellers,
Walking towards and headed for the everlasting!
Some accompany us along the walk
In the path of life,
some hold our hands,
some just pave way
Some just leave a kind word,
either way as the saying goes,
"At the end of the day, we are all walking each other home."

In this temporary dwelling,
nothing is worth holding on to,
except for our good deeds,
everything else is meant to be detached from
Because nothing lasts for ever!

Even the beautiful rain drops,
Lasts for a while,
at times Just enough to nourish life and the earth.
Sunshine lasts for a time
To brighten life.
Such is life!

The worry that resides in our hearts,
the anxiety that lurks in our thoughts,
the doubt that knocks,
the sorrows of life,
is not here to stay,
especially when life simple truth is accepted!
Nothing lasts for ever,
and yes, not even cold November rain,

Such is life.
