If you're reading this, it means that you made it this year. 

It's okay if all you did was to survive. It's okay if you're still in the process of absorbing everything. It's okay if all you gain was hope for a new beginning. 

It's okay if you think that you were not productive enough for the whole year. It's okay if all you see was small progress. It's okay if you feel that you're not close enough on achieving your goals. What matters most is that you made it.

At this time, you may be tired, but please continue to be patient with yourself. You may be pressured with everything because of the weight of fulfilling your dreams, growing as a person, and taking care of your well-being. But, please do not forget to wear self-love and shower gentleness to yourself.

Continue allowing yourself to believe that everything gets better, and that includes you, too. Remember that to be patient is to know that there will always be a turn of time when it actually belongs to you.

Oh precious soul

- Oh precious soul,

I pray that Allah ﷻ heals your broken heart, and lightens the burdens that reside within it.

May you find that peace and contentment, wherever it may be. For I know that every crying heart, would do anything to have it. 🤍🌸

اک نشانی بھی فراموش نہیں کی اسکی

اک نشانی بھی فراموش نہیں کی اسکی

ایک بھی زخم کو آرام نہیں آنے دیا

اس نے اک دن مجھے ناکام کہا اور میں نے

خود کو اپنے بھی کسی کام نہیں آنے دیا

کسی کے لئے ہم عمر بھر تجسس کا پہلو بن کر نہیں رہتے

Mujhe logo ne apne rawaiyon se ye smjhaya hai k waqt hamesha aik sa nahi rehta, chahton main shiddat hmesha عمر bhar nae rehti

کسی کے لئے ہم عمر بھر تجسس کا پہلو بن کر نہیں رہتے

Koi hmare liye عمر bhar muntizir nae rehta , kisi ko hum se muhabbat aur dosti nahi hoti sirf tajasus hota hai

~ ہر تعلق کی انتہا بیزاری ہے ..

Jab inka tajasus khtm hojata hai tu rabty bhi khatam kr dete hain..

تجسس ختم رابطہ ختم ۔۔

Woh bat jiska gila tak nahi mjhy ..par hai

kay meri chah nae thi , meri zroorat thi 

وہ بات جس کا گلہ تک نہیں مجھے ۔۔پر ہے 

کہ میری چاہ نہیں تھی ، میری ضرورت تھی

To the lost version of myself 🥀

From being the happiest girl around, the one people mumble about. To the quietest version of a human being. 

I know you've been through alot, I know all yours pains and all your sufferings. I know you've been let down numerous times. I know your soul has plentiful holes. I know you've gave 100% of your efforts and got -100% in return. I know your life has messed up. But what else I know is, that you're unbreakable. You're unbeatable. You're unstoppable. Your smile is contagious. Stay strong. Be brave, have faith.

عدم یہ ضبط کے آداب کہاں سے سیکھے؟

تم تو ہر رنگ میں لگتے تھے بکھرنے والے

How often do we feel embarrassed

How often do we feel embarrassed the way our heart loves something, despite all our efforts to resist?

How often do we feel angry the way our heart becomes indifferent to something, something we planned to love forever?

That's how life happens to us, in the most strange and unexpected ways!

We think of having a full authority over our heart and mind, but we get it wrong. 

There are moments in life when you stand in awe, watching yourself powerless over habits of your heart.

And you keep wondering about where you went wrong.

And then knowing this beautiful reality that our heart remains in control of our Rabb!!

While we are entangled in the affairs of our mind and overhwhelmed emotions, He chooses us to love something that we never adored.

It is always Him who detaches our heart from several things that we longed for.

Only He is the turner of our hearts, and what a huge blessing it is!!

Otherwise, how could we manage our fragile hearts by our own?

 

May He turn our hearts to His obedience!

انسان کا ظاہر و باطن کتنا ہی یکساں کیوں نہ ہو..

انسان کا ظاہر و باطن کتنا ہی یکساں کیوں نہ ہو..

اس کے پھر بھی ہزاروں روپ ہوتے ہیں..

 کسی کے سامنے وہ دنیا کا سب سے سمجھدار شخص ہوتا ہے..

 اور کہیں ایک بگڑا ہوا بچہ..

کوئی اس کو پتھر جانتا ہے..

 اور کسی کی نظروں میں وہ موم کی طرح پگھلا ہوا..

ہمارا ہر روپ ہر ایک کے لیے نہیں ہوتا..

 اور صرف ایک روپ ہمارا مکمل وجود نہیں ہوتا..

 دھوپ اور بارش کے درمیان ایک قوسِ قزاح بھی بنتی ہے..

شاید انہی رنگوں جیسے ہیں ہم۔۔

صبح بخیر🌸

"Dear December,

"Dear December,

I'm lost…. Literally in these past few months I had a great struggle inside me, which was literally a storm, huge storm.

I kept asking myself, Am I late?? I saw different people around me starting their new lives, who got a job and who fell in love and I saw myself having nothing of these, I felt that I was late, very late, which arouse a huge storm inside me and indulged me in a sort of sadness and kind of depression and made me inquiring if I was late or my time hasn't come yet. 

But in the same time I felt that I had a voice inside my head which said "you are not late, you just need to relax and think in a positive way". I felt somehow satisfied, and knew that my time for having a job or falling in love will come sooner or later, I realised that happiest things will come even in our deepest sorrow or depression, that this is simply, LIFE.

Thank you dear self for understanding this fact, for assuring that we all will have things we asked for and wanted but we need to maintain our faith and patience. I understood this fact, I thought I understood it lately with heavy heart full of sadness and depression but actually, I knew it in the perfect time, I also knew that happiness is found in the very simple things and I have faith that I will be very happy and have everything I asked for."

 

اور اللّٰہ کے ہاں محبتـــــ کا اصول یــہ ہے

اسلام وعلیکم 🥀🖤

صبح بخیر زندگی 🙂

-" اور اللّٰہ کے ہاں محبتـــــ کا اصول یــہ ہے,

کہ جتنـــا زیادہ اللّٰہ تمہیــں پسنـــد کرے گا 

اتنا ہی زیادہ تمہیـــں

 آزمائش میں ڈالــے گا_" ❤️

میں نے تین دن کا بکھرا ہوا اپنا گھر پورے تین گھنٹوں کی مسلسل محنت سے سمیٹ لیا ۔۔

میں نے تین دن کا بکھرا ہوا اپنا گھر پورے تین گھنٹوں کی مسلسل محنت سے سمیٹ لیا ۔۔

تھکن سے چور میں چائے کا مگ تھامے صاف ستھرے کمرے کو دیکھ کر سوچ رہی ہوں !

بکھری ہوئی سوچیں کیسے سمیٹی جا سکتی ہیں ؟؟

بکھرا ہوا دل کیسے سمیٹا جائے ؟؟

پتہ کیا ہے

"دل پہ پڑنے والے پہلے شخص کے قدم بڑے بااثر ہوتے ہیں خواہ وہ شخص خود لڑکھڑا جائے لیکن قدموں کی مضبوطی ساری زندگی جوں کی توں رہتی ہے"

انیس بیس سال میں بٹنوں سے شروع ہونے والی میری محبت ایک اینڈرائڈ پہ ختم ہو گئی !

ختم ہونے کی وجہ 

بہتر سے بہترین کی تلاش تھی !

یا

عادتاً اور فطرتاً محبت ہونے میں فرق ہوتا ہے 

کچھ لوگ عادتاً محبت ہوتے ہیں کچھ لوگ فطرتاً 

وہ"عادتاً" تھا !

مجھے محبت پہ لکھے ایک لمبا عرصہ ہو گیا ہے میں لاکھ کوشش کروں تو بھی نہیں لکھ پاتی 

یا

شاید میں لکھنا ہی نہیں چاہتی 

مجھے کبھی کبھی اپنا آپ بڑا عجیب لگتا ہے میں ایک پل کسی بات کی تصدیق کرتی ہوں اور اگلے ہی لمحے تردید !

ابھی میں نے انگلیوں کی پوروں پہ گننا شروع کیا "انیس بیس اکیسسس_________ستائیں ؛

8 سال بہت چھوٹا سا عرصہ ہے ان آٹھ سالوں کو میں اٹھ صفحات میں سمیٹ سکتی ہوں لیکن ان آٹھ سالوں میں"محبت" پہ "خرچ" کئے اپنے جذبات کو میں آٹھ ہزار سالوں میں بھی بیان نہیں کر پاؤں گی !

میں نے ان آٹھ سالوں میں کئی "تہجد" بنا سوئے پڑھی تھیں :

دراصل جب آپ محبت کے مذہب میں ہوتے ہیں تو کوئی بھی مذہب آپ کو اس سے بڑھ کر نہیں لگتا !

کسی نے کہا تھا "آہ محبت تم ہر ایک کے لئے سرخ گلاب نہیں ہوتی"

میں نے کبھی یہ نہیں چاہا تھا محبت سرخ گلاب ہو

کیونکہ مجھے پتہ ہے محبت کی چھاؤں میں رھ کر گل سڑ کر بدبو زدہ ہو جانے سے بہتر ہے

بندہ ہجر یا دھتکار کی آگ میں جل کر راکھ ہو جائے !

ان آٹھ سالوں میں "محبت" نے مجھ پہ اپنے اور میں نے خود پہ محبت کے دروازے مضبوطی سے بندھ کر کہ ان تالوں کی اصل اور ڈوپلیکیٹ چابیاں بہت سے دریاؤں میں بہا دی ہیں !

دراصل مجھے اب محسوس ہو رہا ہے ہے ہم جیسے لوگ محبت کے لئے بنے ہی نہیں ہوتے !

ہم جیسے لوگ بس احساس کے لئے بنے ہوتے ہیں اور یہ چیز بھی ہم میں یک طرفہ ہوتی ہے !

خیر ہم جیسوں کے لئے ایک جنم دوبارہ لازم ہو جس میں کچھ بھی نہ ہو فقط محبت ہو !

اگر ہم اسی طرح ایک دوسرے سے ملتے رہے

اگر ہم اسی طرح

ایک دوسرے سے ملتے رہے  

درخت لگے راستوں اور

کنکریٹ کے فٹ پاتھوں پر

گھنٹوں پیدل چلتے رہے 

سفید بادلوں کو دیکھ کر خوش ہوتے 

اور اچانک امنڈ آنے والی بارشوں میں بھیگتے رہے

مضافاتی سڑکوں پر 

دیر تک بے مقصد ڈرائیو کرتے رہے

چائے خانہ میں 

کونے والی میز پر

رات گئے تک بیٹھ کر 

دنیا جہان کی باتیں کرتے  

اور خواب میں گم ہو جانے والی نظموں 

دوبارہ کبھی نہ مل سکنے والے دوستوں    

اور بے نام رشتوں، آدرشوں، محبتوں کو

یاد کر کے اداس ہوتے رہے

تو دیکھنا 

ایک دن ہم نظم بن جائیں گے 

Positive” feelings are never meant to be a trade off for the “negative” ones

"Positive" feelings are never meant to be a trade off for the "negative" ones. I believe that contrasting feelings can coexist but I also believe that what we choose to focus on can grow stronger and become the dominant emotion. Choosing joy or gratitude is never meant to invalidate the times we feel pain or are going through something difficult. The choice is just meant to shift our focus and move us towards better things. Lots of requests for Pooh bear and his pals so I may need to split them up over these next few weeks but here's little piglet…he may be small but he's definitely loved ❤️

Ironically, it has been a very busy day

Ironically, it has been a very busy day 😂 but I'm now laying in bed for a little before the next activity. Rest is important. It is something we think we do but many of us struggle with it. Whether it's getting to bed at a good time, putting our phones away and saving emails for tomorrow, or letting ourselves mentally put our worries away…rest lets us keep going. It's RESTores us. So, in any way you can today and however you need, find rest today ❤️

No one will understand when you choose yourself for a change

No one will understand when you choose yourself for a change.

Every time you choose yourself or your own peace of mind, 

You will be the bad person in at least one story, but the savior in yours.

Save yourself this time.

Losing a way that was the best for you in your thoughts might lead to alot and is quite upsetting

Losing a way that was the best for you in your thoughts might lead to alot and is quite upsetting, because its merely according to what we like and want but the reality that the rest other that is coming ahead is way more beautiful and everlasting, because in the end only things happen that are written in our fate, and when the Writer is the most merciful, how not our fate be the best of all.

-

Pray for the good days, the best for you and have patience wait for the right time and you'll  be blessed with the beautiful things inshaAllah.

میں آنکھیں موندے اپنے چہرے پر اَس کی نظروں کی تپش محسوس کر رہی ہوں

میں آنکھیں موندے اپنے چہرے پر

اَس کی نظروں کی تپش محسوس کر رہی ہوں

میں اَسکی آنکھوں میں اپنے لیے محبت محسوس کررہی ہوں

میں جانتی ہوں

وہ بند آنکھوں کے پیچھے چھپے میرے آنسوؤں کو دیکھ رہا ہے

لیکن ہاتھ بڑھا کر صاف کرنے سے قاصر ہے

میں آنکھیں کھولنا نہیں چاہتی

کہ کہیں وہ شرمندہ سا ہو کر نظریں نہ چرا لے

میں تا عمر اس لمحے کی گرفت میں قید رہنا چاہتی ہوں

کہ میں آنکھیں موندے لیٹی رہوں ,اور وہ نظروں کے حصار میں لیے مجھے تکتا رہے

لیکن لمحے کو آخر گزرنا ہے,ماضی بن جانا ہے

رات کے بعد دن کو آنا ہے

یہی فطرت ہے

اور فطرت بھلا کب چاہنے سے بدلی ہے

اور چاند بھلا کیسے مجھےتاعمر نظروں کے حصار میں لیے بیٹھ سکتا ہے

چاند کو بھی آخر سورج کی روشنی میں چھپ جانا ہے,گم ہو جانا ہے

کوئ آزمائش خالی ہاتھ نہیں جاتی انسان پر سے۔

کوئ آزمائش خالی ہاتھ نہیں جاتی انسان پر سے۔  کبھی صلہ دے جاتی ہے۔۔کبھی اللّٰہ کے ہاں مقبولیت دے جاتی ہے۔۔۔۔۔اور کبھی دعا کرنے کا سلیقہ دے جاتی ہے۔ اللّٰہ جو آزمائشیں بندے پر ڈالتا ہے ان میں سے کوئ ایک بھی انسان کو خسارے میں نہیں ڈالتی۔ زبان پر شکر رکھیں۔    اللّٰہ بڑا مہربان ہے✨❤️

لوگوں کی محبت🥀

لوگوں کی محبت کو اپنا غم مت بناؤ !!

پس لوگوں کے دل تو الٹتے پلٹتے رهتے ہیں ۔ 

لوگ کبھی بھی وہ نہیں ہوتے جو ہمیں نظر آتے ہیں. ہر انسان کے اندر کئی روپ بسے ہوتے ہیں ۔ جو موقع کی تلاش میں رهتے ہیں ۔اور موقع ملتے ہی باہر نکل آتے ہیں ۔۔،

کوئی سفاک 

کوئی مہربان 

کوئی ملنسار 

کوئی دھوکے باز 

کوئی دوغلا 

کوئی ہنس مکھ 

تو کوئی تلخی سے بھرا ہوا ۔ 

ایک لمحہ آپ کے ساتھ تو دوسرے ہی لمحے آپ کے خلاف آپ کو پتہ بھی نہیں چلتا کہ کون کہاں بدل جائے ۔ برسوں کے تعلقات منٹوں میں ختم ہو جاتے ہیں ۔آپ جتنی مرضی کوشش کر لیں آپ لوگوں کو نہیں جان سکتے ۔ آپ کسی کو جاننے کا دعوا بھی نہیں کر سکتے ۔ آپ یہ کبھی نہیں جان سکتے کہ بند دروازوں کے پیچھے کوئی کس حال سے گزر رہا ہے ۔ 

ہو سکتا ہے کوئی کتنا خوش نظر آئے ، کسی کی ہنسی کتنی ہی بلند کیوں نہ ہو ، وہ کسی ایسے غم اور تکلیف کا سامنا کر رہا ہو جو نا قابل بیان ہو۔۔

 لوگوں سے نرمی برتیں ،خواہ آپ کو جواب میں تلخی ہی کیوں نہ ملے ۔ درگزر کرنا سیکھیں ۔اور اپنی امیدوں کو صرف اور صرف اللّٰہ پاک سے وابستہ کریں۔❤️

اللّٰہ پاک ہماری عزت و آبرو، جان و مال کی حفاظت فرمائے۔۔😇

 دو رنگے منافقین ، چالبازوں ، دھوکے بازوں ، مکاروں ، ڈرامے بازوں ،حاسدوں اور جاہلوں کے شر سے محفوظ فرمائے۔۔

آ مین یا رب العالمین 🤲

The older I get the more I realize how being grateful for simple things make life beautiful

"The older I get the more I realize how being grateful for simple things make life beautiful: a cup of coffee, a smile on children's faces, clean laundry, waking up in the morning and just being in the here and now, not trying to figure out the whole life at once.

The older I get the more I realize how all the messiness in life taught me the most important lessons in appreciation and gratitude, and shaped me into a stronger, beautiful, perfectly imperfect person.

The older I get the more I realize that each day is a new beginning and that I have the power and right to choose my battles and attitude, even when I can't change the circumstances."

سمجھیے اس سے پہلے کے دیر ہو جاۓ

میاں بیوی رات کو اکٹھے لیٹتے ہیں، ایک دوجے سے ڈھیروں باتیں کرتے ہیں اور سو جاتے ہین، صبح بیوی اٹھتی ھے تو پتا چلتا ھے کہ شوہر نے خودکشی کر لی ھے۔۔اتنا قریبی رشتہ ھوتا ھے لیکن بیوی کو اندازہ بھی نہیں ھو پاتا کہ میرا شوہر خودکشی کا ارادہ کر چکا ھے۔

ایک ہی گھر میں سب بہن بھائی رہتے ہیں، بھائی گھر مین سب سے مل کر نکلتا ھے۔۔ سامنے مال میں جا کر خودکشی کر لیتا ھے۔۔۔ماں جائے، جو بچپن سے ایک دوجے ساتھ زندگی گزار رھے ہین، وہ جان ہی نہیں پاتے کہ ان کا ایک دل کا ٹکڑا اس حد تک زندگی سے مایوس ھے کہ اس سے نجات پانا چاہتا ھے۔

طالبعلموں کا ایک گروپ اکٹھا اپنا رزلٹ دیکھتا ھے، رزلٹ بعد ایک دوسرے ساتھ ہنسی مذاق اور ٹھٹے اڑاتا ھے، ان میں سے ان کا ہی ایک دوست گھر جانے کی بجائے نہر میں کود کر اپنی جان دے دیتا ھے اور ایک دوسرے کو جگر  کہنے والوں کو احساس تک نہیں ھو پاتا کہ ان کا ایک جگر اس دنیا سے جانے کی ٹھان چکا ھے۔۔۔۔

ایسی کئی جانیں، ایسے کئی انسان، جن سے ہمیں اپنی محبت کا اور بے پناہ قربت کا دعوی ھوتا ھے، وہ اپنی زندگی سے ہاتھ دھو بیٹھتے ہیں اور ہم اس ہاتھ میں پکڑے ھوئے موبائل فون کے ذریعے ہزاروں یا سیکنڑوں میل دور بیٹھے انسان بارے تو جان لیتے ہیں یا جاننا چاہتے کہ اسے کیا مسلہ ھے لیکن ہم اپنی قربت میں، اپنے ساتھ سانسیں لیتے انسان کے بارے نہیں جان پاتے کہ وہ کیا سوچ رہا ھے۔۔۔۔۔۔ذرا سوچیں تو کہیں ہم اپنے ان قرابت داروں کی حق تلفی تو نہیں کر رھے۔۔۔۔۔ہماری چاہت، ہماری توجہ، ہماری ہمدردی و محبت کے جو اصل حقدار ہیں، کہیں ہم ان کو اس حق سے محروم کر کے انھیں زندگی کی آس سے مایوس تو نہیں کر رھے؟؟ ہم سے ہر ایک ذمہ دار ھے، ہر اس انسان کے لیئے، ہر اس ذی روح کے لیئے جسے آپ کے وجود کی قربت و شناسائی بخشی گئی ھے، اس ذمہ داری کو نباہنا باقی ہر طرح کے عہدوں اور وعدوں سے زیادہ ضروری اور اہم ھے۔۔۔۔سمجھیئے۔۔۔اس سے پہلے کہ دیر ھو جائے۔۔

You won’t miss out on anything by going at your own pace

You won't miss out on anything by going at your own pace, You're not behind, Life's not a race. It can be hard to not compare yourself to your peers, Everyone has done it. Especially during periods when we are feeling like shit or when our self esteem has hit the wall. 

We are all different so don't compare your accomplishments, looks wins or losses in life to others. We all walk different paths. Your only competition should be with yourself and as long as the person you are now is even the tiniest bit better than the person you were the last time you compared your on the right path. 

What's meant for you will come 💙

The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said,

 The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The father is the middle of the gates of Paradise. If you wish, you can squander this gate or keep to it.” ❤️

میں نے بِگڑا وقت بھی دیکھا ہے اور اچھا بھی۔ میں نے وہ چیز بھی کھوئی ہے جو مجھے جان سے زیادہ پیاری تھی

میں نے بِگڑا وقت بھی دیکھا ہے اور اچھا بھی۔ 

میں نے وہ چیز بھی کھوئی ہے جو مجھے جان سے زیادہ پیاری تھی اور میں نے وہ بھی پایا جسکو پانے کا میں تصور بھی نہیں کر سکتی تھی،

میں نے ہجوم میں خاموشی دیکھی ہے اور تنہائی میں بھی قہقہوں کی آواز سُنی ہے۔

میں نے بہت کُچھ جیت کر ہارا ہے اور بہت کُچھ ہار کر بھی جیتا ہے 

پہلے میں اور اب میں بس ایک لفظ کا فرق ہے۔

"یقین"

میں پہلے وہ چاہتی تھی جو میرا دل چاہتا تھا اور دل کا کیا ہے دل تو بے وجہ چیزیں بھی چاہتا ہے۔

اور اب میں بس وہ چاہتی ہوں جو اللہ ﷻ چاہتا ہے۔ 

کتنا کُچھ کھونے کے بعد میں نے جانا تو بس یہی جانا کہ اُسکے فیصلے سے بہتر نہ زمیں میں کوئی شے ہے اور نہ آسماں میں۔۔ 

اور بس ایک وہی ہے جو نہ اچھے وقت میں اکیلا چھوڑتا ہے 

اور نہ بُرے وقت میں تنہا رہنے دیتا ہے۔

آپ جب اللہ ﷻ سے محبت کریں گے تو یقین کریں آپ کے لیے خود بخود معجزے کھڑے ہوں گے۔۔۔ ✨

Sometimes fate is like a small sandstorm that keeps changing directions

"Sometimes fate is like a small sandstorm that keeps changing directions. You change direction but the sandstorm chases you. You turn again, but the storm adjusts. Over and over you play this out, like some ominous dance with death just before dawn. Why? Because this storm isn't something that blew in from far away, something that has nothing to do with you. This storm is you. Something inside of you. So all you can do is give in to it, step right inside the storm, closing your eyes and plugging up your ears so the sand doesn't get in, and walk through it, step by step. There's no sun there, no moon, no direction, no sense of time. Just fine white sand swirling up into the sky like pulverized bones. That's the kind of sandstorm you need to imagine.

And you really will have to make it through that violent, metaphysical, symbolic storm. 

And once the storm is over you won't remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won't even be sure, in fact, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm you won't be the same person who walked in. That's what this storm's all about." -

When the going gets tough may I resist my first impulse to wade in

When the going gets tough may I resist my first impulse to wade in, fix, explain, resolve, and restore. May I sit down instead.

When the going gets tough may I be quiet. May I steep for a while in stillness.

When the going gets tough may I have faith that things are unfolding as they are meant to. May I remember that my life is what it is, not what I ask for. May I find the strength to bear it, the grace to accept it, the faith to embrace it.

When the going gets tough may I practice with what I'm given, rather than wish for something else. When the going gets tough may I assume nothing. May I not take it personally. May I opt for trust over doubt, compassion over suspicion, vulnerability over vengeance. When the going gets tough may I open my heart before I open my mouth.

When the going gets tough may I be the first to apologize. May I leave it at that. May I bend with all my being toward forgiveness.

When the going gets tough may I look for a door to step through rather than a wall to hide behind.

When the going gets tough may I turn my gaze up to the sky above my head, rather than down to the mess at my feet. May I count my blessings.

When the going gets tough may I pause, reach out a hand, and make the way easier for someone else. When the going gets tough may I remember that I'm not alone. May I be kind. When the going gets tough may I choose love over fear. Every time.

Sometimes, I look back in the past!! 🍂

- Sometimes, I look back in the past!! 🍂

And I always get hurt, that I have faced so many unusual things!!! That shattered my soul into pieces!!!

I have faced child abuse, and as, I was a kid at that stage, I didn't even knew what is happening with me!! Why they are doing this to me!! What's the reason behind all this!! But I was saved from a big harm!! (الحمد للہ)

From the beginning I was introvert! 

I couldn't share everything with anyone! 

I faced the worst things, I cried a lot!! 

I overcame all these things by my own!! 

No one has helped me to get out of that horrible situations!!! 

I have seen people changing into a stranger!!! 💔

They pretend to me like I'm nothing to them!! 

I always loved every person in my life selflessly!! 

But still I couldn't get someone who can understand me as I'm! 

I don't have any complains to anyone!! 

I faced everything and remained silent! 

All the situations are changed, 

I tried to forget all the things but I'm bad at this! 

But Alhamdulillaah, 

My Allah ﷻ has helped me to get out of every problem! 

Sometimes I think that!! 

If Allah ﷻ weren't here with me!! Where would I be today??

Even I may not be living my life today!

پوچھتا کون ہے

ہم اداسی کے محور میں رہتے ہوئے آخری لوگ ہیں

ایسے مصروف سنسار میں

بھول کر بھی ہمارے لیے

سوچتا کون ہے ؟

پھر کبھی یاد اگر آ بھی جائیں تو 

پوچھتا کون ہے ؟ _🦋

صبح بخیر ۔

‏کبھی تھک جائیــــــــں 

 کبھی ٹوٹ جائیــــــــں تو کسی کو کانوں کان خبر نہ ہونے دیں .

اور جو بھی دُکھ ہیــــــــں اپنے رب کریم کے حضور بیان کریں .

 ٹوٹے دل اور آنسوؤں کی قدر صرف اللہ کے پاس ہے .

 باقی تو سب تماشائی ہیــــــــں .

منزل سب کـی اللّٰہ ہـی ہـے .

محبت ،غـم، ازمائـش!

تـو سـفـر کـا حصّہ ہــے.

You see so much beauty in others but failed to see yours. You have something to offer too.

You see so much beauty in others but failed to see yours. You have something to offer too. You are beautiful. You are talented. You have potentials. You are your own version and definition of you. You are an art yourself, a work in progress, yet, never less, never incomplete—just being you, wholesome. 

You too deserve that compliment and positive adjectives you used to tell others. You just have to believe that you are amazing, not like any others, but like you.

Even if the world isn't giving you back the favor, just always be gentle on yourself. You can be your own positive attraction.

As you grow older and get to hold a grasp of how things work

As you grow older and get to hold a grasp of how things work, you will then see what really matters most. You will learn that it is not really necessary to let everyone in your premises just to feel that your existence is validated and just to feel like you belong in a particular crowd. It is okay if you had to cut some toxic relationship with people, or walk out and leave arguments that don't serve you. You should learn not to compromise your peace and happiness over things that matter less and over people who don't even care about how you feel. Your mental health matters a lot—be brave not to look back and just be on your way. Let them hear the sound of your footsteps fading away, let them and let go. 

Letting go is not always a loss.

-LET THEM LOSE YOU🖤

You need to let people lose you, let them go along with the crowd, let them believe what they want to believe, let them think that they can get better, let them sleep on your worth.

Because in due time, they will realise the mistake they made and it will be just enough time for you to accept that you're better off without them!!- 🕊️💙

دھنک کے رنگ دیکھے ہے نہ تم نے...؟

دھنک کے رنگ دیکھے ہے نہ تم نے...؟

ہاں وہ بلکل اُن  کے جیسی ہی ہے رنگ برنگے جزبوں سے لبریز چلبلی لڑکی.....!

ہر رنگ میں وہ اپنی کہانی کا عکس چھپائے بیٹھی ہے... 

رنگ اُسے اِس لیے نہیں بھاتے کہ یہ ہر خاص و عام کے لیے توجہ کا مرکز ہوتے.....

آہاں بلکہ وہ تو خود رنگوں جیسی ہے کہی شوخی کا جہاں کہی پھیکی سی....!

کہی اسکا رنگ تیز جزبوں کی دھوپ میں. اترنے لگتا...

اور کہی محبت کی ٹھنڈی پھوار پڑتے ہی نکھرنے لگتا....!

نکھرے رنگ خوبصورت ہوتے ہیں نہ...؟

ہاں وہ بلکل اِن کے جیسی ہی ہے.... ❤️

منزلیں الگ ہوں تو راستے جلدی الگ کر لینے چاہئیں

منزلیں الگ ہوں تو راستے جلدی الگ کر لینے چاہئیں۔۔۔ 

لمبی اذیت سے بچنے کا اک بہترین طریقہ یہ بھی ہے۔۔۔ جب آپ کو پتا چل جائے کہ اس رستے کے اختتام پر منزل نظر نہیں آرہی تو خود کو اور دوسروں کو جھوٹی تسلیاں دیتے ہوئے وقت گزاری نہ کریں۔۔۔ ہم یہ کہتے ہوئے چلتے رہتے ہیں وقت آیا تو دیکھی جائے گی لیکن المیہ یہ کہ جب وقت آتا ہے ہم سے دیکھا ہی نہیں جاتا۔۔۔۔

بنا منزل کا راستہ ازیت، مایوسی اور بیزاری کے سوا کچھ بھی نہیں دے سکتا۔۔۔

ENDURANCE – A PATH LEADS TO BOUNTIES

 Those who resides  in the heart are the ones who ruin the peace of the heart.

You might witnessed . The ideology of life is nothing but, here the loyal ones always receive animosity in response of their regardless love.

Then the poor owners of beautiful character often become impatient and asked their selves.

‘ Is this our destiny to remain at the sight of self-indulgent 

 people  every time’?

Referring  to all those beautiful heart owners hereby,

Why are you sad?

Why do you make your heart grieved?

Why you are having regrets regarding your utmost love?

You are beautiful in your own way.

 Your soul is pure.

Your intentions are clear.

You believe in spreading happiness.

You are an inspirational cup of tea in the days of Autumn.

You better know how to confront with indulgence.

Have you ever wonder , besides all those hardships and agonies why your heart still continues and blemishes to be an optimistic perso

The answer is pretty simple , all those struggles you have been through , all those hardships you have suffered, all those agonies and aches your soul tolerated were meant to make you a gem, a priceless and a precious  gem, my dea

‘This life which seems so fair is like a bubble blown up in the air

On one fine day , these all beautiful images and views of life will fade away

The luxuries , the lavish life styles , the aches , the hurdles, the melodies of nature will come to an end.

The only thing any soul retain will be their struggles and their rewards bestowed upon them by their lord.

So, don’t be afraid never lose hope , if the life is revealing the harsh realities upon you so you are a luckiest person because the contemplations are only for those who seek guidance and strive to be on right path.

Remember one thing that Allah has chosen you for TRIALS as he has promised to make things easy for you and all the eases are his blessings , indeed.

“This life is the TEST and TRIALS and the TESTS are TRIALS. Life is a trial, every time you realize that.

 It’s okay to be scared , it’s okay to cry, but giving up should not be an option.

They always say that FAILURE is not an option . FAILURE should be an option because when you fail,

 you get up and then you fail and then you get up and that keeps you going.”

(MUNIBA MAZARI)

Those who shattered your heart into pieces are the only ones who respond to your fidelity with their abhorrence.

‘Success is not final,

 Failure is not fatal;

 It is the courage to continue that counts.’

DISTRACTIONS

 

I still remember the days when my breath was stuck in my throat, the things around me, even though they were in their original state, seemed to be threatening, frightening me like a weird horrible Dinosaur. When a person despairs he is in worst state of losing hope, desperately. Then it seemed as if everything has stopped working fairly, now nothing can happen. The demoralizations prevailing inside becomes the worst enemies of humans sometimes and the hidden storms zinced the power of the mind. Every inch of ability to think and understand disappears gradually, as time went by a person was about to crumble and tremble in his own unsought battles. You know how painful it is to be crippled, to burn your own soul into ashes!

Then maybe such circumstances produces a right MOMENT to give some SPACE to your life in order to embrace your inner peace, to boost it up, to enhance & strengthen your mental health. When all you can do is to seek patience and believe in optimism, passionately.

But, what do you think? Being realistic, is it so easy to get yourself up , to make yourself patient , to deteriorate all the ifs and buts prevailing inside your mind imploring you to yell , to scream louder just to receive some sort of relaxation which is although a timely act.

You stumbled because if you want to get up again, you will start staggering. We humans are indeed so unpredictable creatures on Earth, even a person himself often fails to recognize his own emotional flaws and values. Has time ever stopped for anyone? NO, a big no here, TIME will never ever suppose to stop for anyone, it keeps going and life goes on. All we can do is to set up our own pace of life with speed of time.

Whether the time seems good or bad, fortunate or unfortunate, it is destined to pass.                              

Do you know why? So, that you may recover a little, following the rituals of not going on the distracted paths on which you got stumbled, onc

‘The same thing that they believe will be more effective than turning

It isn’t only a thought provoking inside your heart but the below mentioned sentence has a mesmerizing impact on wounded hearts, indee

“Allah passes man from the worst to the best

Keep yourself optimistic and rely on God before such cruel or harsh Pandora boxes reveals unto you. Try to return to your LORD and obey his instructions which are in best interest of human

When the servant obeys his will, then there comes a time when he will return to his own.

 The intellectual capabilities calls upon that man cannot even think the way things tend to be happened.

The Girl Next Bench

 

It was 8am in the morning, 8am again. Life has been pushed on a seat which was on a journey to hell. It wasn’t same as it was before, in late 2010. Those mushy, comfortable nights and cold mornings were what I wish today; well I don’t think I’ll get those days back ever, of course time machine isn’t here still. You know what’s worst? Loosing feelings for someone/something, the feeling before having something can’t be compared with the feeling after having them; after winning things you prayed to have, you feel different, you feel relaxed and happy. And it’s rightly said that we, humans, forget the real value of things right after having them.

So, it was an energetic, bright morning when I hard-pressed myself to a warm bath; well to be honest I didn’t last more than 10 minutes, as the water was icy. It wasn’t my first university class, but I had to go fresh and active to remain attentive and progressive.

You ever feel empty? Empty, calm and cold on a bike taxi? Well I do! Every time I travel from Bykea (bike taxi) in early mornings, I get this insane, abnormal feeling from the environment; it doesn’t feel home, but it memorizes me of the age when my beloved father used to hold my hand and take me to my school located near our home. Those soft, memorable days. Aahh!!! I still remember them, and not just remember them, but sometimes I allow my eyes to wash themselves out too when remembering those happy, tensionless, pure, joyful moments. I guess that’s where you come to know that you are alive, your inner self, your older self, and most importantly, real you and your soul are alive.

 This is where life and living matters the most, when you feel each thing you expect yourself to feel, when you don’t just see things from your naked eyes, but analyze them, see them with your vision, history and creating a mind map in your pea sized brain, connecting things to past memories, events and accidents. I guess this is where it matters all, your efforts, thinking power, those puzzling, baffled, mind disorientating thoughts. This is what’s important, in an upgrading and digitalizing world, old thoughts, you smiling on them, pushing your way to think more of them, recreating those worthy moments and putting your 100% in meaningful things is important. It may not sound lovely, but it’s definitely lively.

With all this, I stepped off the bike and handed over a 100 rupee note to taxi driver. And here it was! Start of a new and life changing journey.

I entered the light blue colored gate, and saw students wearing shoulder bags, teachers rushing to classes, and guards welcoming students, protecting the campus. It hit me as my school days. I could imagine little kids, a little playground and all these activities happening in late 2010. A cheerful smile on my face showed all; I guess that’s what we are, a cluster of thoughts, imaginations and fears and strengths, and a mixture of all. One can never understand other; how do you expect one to know other when you don’t even know yourself properly.

Limits

 

Humans nowadays have limited themselves to a very great extent. There is only a minority of those who actually push themselves, who know that there are no limits. We can go as far as we want but we have only one life to do that. Humans are duped & misled that they forget their real limits. They are limited to society’s standards, they are limited to just earn money & forge a livelihood out of it & that’s all. But that’s not what we were made for, that’s the truth we don’t understand.

Humans were supposed to be happy for real, not just put a happy facade in front of society & then weep in solitude.

They were supposed to go after their passions, their dreams, their ambitions, etc but what they are doing instead, is killing them.

We were supposed to be happy about others’ happiness & support each other but what we are doing is the opposite.

This is one reason why there are many people who are depressed & despondent. Whenever someone gets up to follow their ambitions, they are immediately bombarded with questions & criticism & what else.

The world today is really going into self-destruct mode, there is so much to write about the interim condition but the mind can’t process it. There is so much to reconstruct & mend but no one knows what to start with…
