I WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL

You have always made it through. Look back and see exactly how everything aligned for the better before. You must believe so deeply in miracles. You must believe that better days are coming for you. Feel this within yourself. No obstacle shall stop your vision. No challenge shall weaken you. You are too strong to give up to doubt and fears. You must stop letting your own self stop you from your own greatness. 

The mental chatters, the overthinking, and the self-judgement can be replaced with unwavering faith, positive thinking, and the hope of what if miracles can happen for me. 

What if things suddenly shifted in a positive way? What if you made peace with your own self and the current situation instead being controlled by it? What if you took all your mental and emotional energy and focused on the things that can happen for you. 

Start lifting yourself up from within. Start being your truth; a powerful unstoppable spirit that can overcome any adversity. You are so powerful. Too powerful actually that's why it's humors to see you even for a second entertain a thought that's any less. I'm guessing you're supposed to remember. This is your reminder. 

Reclaim yourself today. Own your truth today. Believe and dream today. Imagine a better world, a better life, a happier you. You know that's possible right? I'm sure you're smiling right now and that's your spirit reigniting. 

Once you accept and claim yourself you'll start to feel, think, and live differently. You'll start to be impacted and impact others. You'll start living in your purpose and flow no matter what you face. 

You'll always remember how powerful you are and that will carry you through anything. You'll look back soon and just be thankful. 

Gratitude will fill your life because you know life is all a collection of moments where you're learning, transforming, transitioning, celebrating, and sharing your creativity. 

You are greatness and I hope that adds more light into your life today as you begin to shine yours.

Everything in this mortal universe has beauty. We humans are the main ingredient in the universe we are living in.

Everything in this mortal universe has beauty. We humans are the main ingredient in the universe we are living in. Sometimes, we think so less of us and agree ourselves with this idea that everything except "me" is perfect. We are in confusion and don't accept that we are born beautiful. Everytime we drop ourselves in a barren field where we find ourselves full of flaws and even with no support.

Who's interrupting our peace of mind to just tell us we are not good enough? Who's telling us that we are born black or brown, deaf or dumb? No one but people. 

These days we are changing ourselves so that people love us. We are changing our hair styles. We are changing our names. We are changing everything that our parents and siblings love.  But on the same time, unfortunately, we are ignoring their love and affection for us. 

"Accept the glorious mess you are".

Feeling a little 'blue' today...

Do you ever feel like we're not supposed to admit to that?

Like we are supposed to always wear this "happy mask?"

Not ever show vulnerability or weakness or pain?

Or a faith that wanes.. even, ever-so-slightly?

I know I have felt that way many times...

Put a smile on.. don't let anyone see your 

bruised heart, or weary soul.

I think it is a huge disservice to everyone

to act like life is always good and easy and perfect..

Life is not always any of those things.

Life is sometimes messy and ugly and hard.

And unfair.

But ~

It is definitely okay to admit that.

We are just imperfect souls trying to live in an imperfect world.

Things go wrong sometimes...

But isn't it nice to know that it's okay to say it out loud?

"I am having a hard day" or "I am sad" or "I feel overwhelmed";

"I feel lost"; "I don't know how to fix this"; "I need help"; "I need your prayers."

Someone told me once that it was wrong to verbalize these feelings.

They said it was complaining and complaining is a sin.

Do. Not. Agree.

Complaining is a lack of thankfulness. Thanklessness is sinful.

Expressing that you "feel blue" is admitting that 

you do not have every situation under your control. ~

It is admitting you need the encouragement of your spouse or friends.

It is admitting you need to lean on God.

You need wrapping up in your Papa's everlasting arms.

How would anyone else have the courage to ask for help

or seek an understanding heart, a listening ear, a strong shoulder...

Or seek God.

How would anyone have the courage to ask for prayer.

If no one ever let their mask slip down.

When we hide our faces behind the façade of

a perfect and beautiful mask ~

Do we not deny God's power to work in our life

and the lives of others?

God help us to have the courage to be real.

She didn't know which direction she was going in, or where to turn.

"She didn't know which direction she was going in, or where to turn. All she knew was she needed to be near him. Yes, need. 

Not, want. There's a difference. A 'Want' is something you desire and crave to have.  A 'Need' is something you view essential and important, maybe even for your survival or inner peace. She NEEDED to be near him. He was her peace to her turmoil, her calmness to her storms, her quiet to her loudness, her safety and security... to her unpredictable, treacherous emotions and thoughts whirling inside of her. He was her steady within her chaos.

 When she was with him, everything drifted away like a fog dissipating over a lake slowly in the late morning. He was her home. Her other half. He felt something was wrong even when he wasn't with her. What a connection they have. Unlike any other she ever experienced. He was also her romance and passion she found in no other. He took rise to something primal and deep awakenings inside her. He fed her Victor Hugo and Fitzgerald during the day, then Hemmingway and Poe at night. He showed her his darkness like no other, and she showed him- hers. He saw the raw open side of her she never showed anyone.

 And for once, she was totally comfortable with that. He's still the only one that gets to see all the sides of her. And vice versa. So two worlds collided that may never have been meant to be, but fit perfectly within their puzzle pieces interlocking so tightly, their bond was unbreakable. This wasn't any ordinary love by all means. This is a love that could start wars with what they feel for each other, and constellations being named by the Gods to keep them eternal."

Maybe she was waiting to be found. Not in a physical sense. In a more essence sense

"Maybe she was waiting to be found. Not in a physical sense. In a more essence sense. Spiritual sense. Almost cosmic. She wanted to be found for who she really was. She wanted someone to see through through facade she gives everyone. To see how she's really feeling and thinking. She could be all smiles, laughs, and her outgoing, friendly, bubbly self. But lift that linen sheet off. You know the one. The one with eyelet lace on the edges. 

White, but a little ivory in some spots from discoloration from the sun. Lift that off, and you'll see the broken sad girl she is. Trying hard to smile, be kinder, and make people laugh so they don't feel how she feels. If she can make someone's day a little brighter, that's better than how she feels. 

She didn't ask for all the trauma. She never wanted the losses that cut deep. But they happened. And they changed her as a person. You'd never know it though, or realize it. But he does. Oh, he does. He sees through it all. He sees she's trying too hard. Too hard to be normal, trying hard so people don't view her as a burden. Trying hard to be the best at her job working with children.

 Going above and beyond the norm. Trying hard at home, keeping up with the house, kids, daily routines. She does it like a pro. Managing everything like a tailored CEO. You would never expect anything was wrong. Well, that's not true. Maybe you'd notice something slightly. Like a hint that something is off. You would never think under that 'have it all together' exterior, that there's this person crying and silently screaming from heartbreak. Drowning in her own abyss. As I said, he knows. He sees through what she's doing. He knows her too well. Her looks, her breathing, her gestures, the words she chooses. He can just tell. He's the only one she can be real with. Her ultimate real true self. She doesn't hide anything from him. She can try, especially when she knows he's having a busy day and she doesn't want to add more stress to his day, but he knows. He can just feel it. 

And he doesn't want her to hold anything back. He's there for it all. The good, the bad, the ugly. All of it. Isn't that what real deep love is? That type of love that says....'Come to me as broken and raw as you are. Give me your light and dark. Give me your happy, loving, comical self, BUT don't forget to show me your depression, anxiety, and longing for your normal self back. 

Your other girl lost. Show me that too. Don't just show me the good. I need to see everything. Be there for it all. Be there for you in all these versions of yourself. The highs and the lows. And I will be the one picking you up, supporting you, and holding you so you feel loved and safe. I'll lead you to the bed, where you just lay in my arms as I hold you tight, and you cry silently over God knows what, you may not even know, and you don't have to even tell me. But I'll hold you tight until you're not tense anymore, and go limp in my arms, letting it all slip away. Because you're safe. Safe with me here. Safe to be your true self you keep hidden away from the world, and try not to let anyone see. But you can be free with me. Because I love you that deeply. 

Now and always'. And he did. Truly he did. And she felt all of that from him. He didn't even have to say those words. She just felt it within.  Like a passing vibration from his soul to hers, from his mind to hers. So you see....she didn't need to be fixed. She needed to be loved for exactly who she is right now".

Self Realization :-

Few years ago,I've witnessed death of a closed one.Since then,I connected myself spiritually to Allah.I was the one who'd loved listening to loud music all the time and going to college concert with friends years ago.Few days back while I was there in foodfestival, I saw people around me going Crazy in the concert crowd,dancing on those beats,I felt how shaky our emaan is.

I just wanted to run from there.I was worried about my namaz.I want you all to look within yourself.Self Realization is the first step.Imgine young people keep on missing Namaz and stay there till midnight enjoying food n concert in these food festivals what if anyone dies there, how shameful it would be to be presented to God when his last moments were not the moments of saying kalma or shadah but his tongue was uttering those useless lyrics. How grave will welcome us if we die in such condition. Have you ever imagined? What would Allah thinks that the person has forgotten me and he has gone mad over the temporary world which he'll leave one day.Be a learner and say Istighfar for all those small sin.

Whoever goes there for food festival will be attracted towards that concert.You might say that this is just few hours of enjoyment and that's it.But for me these things are beyond our thinking. I know the plots of shaitan; with the passage of time everyone can now attend such concerts and there's always a huge crowd..Remember the greater fitnah comes after the smaller ones. Imagine how horrible our future would be if we kept ignoring small sins.

There's always a war withinn myself too.Its very difficult to keep our faith firm when social media limelight and the judgemental people opinion around makes the emaan shaky.We should try to take small steps towards Allah and set our priorities clear.

Friendship is such a beautiful yet bizarre thing

Friendship is such a beautiful yet bizarre thing.  In life, we make thousands of acquaintances among which the tiny little fraction is what we call our friends. 

If I've understood one thing about friendship so far, it's that it's not a business. We don't do things for friends expecting they would do the same in return. We do them because we want to. We want to because we are confident enough that the person on the other side deserves it. We trust them. We know, if someday we need them, they would be there putting their everything into it.  

However, once that trust is broken, it can't be revived. Betrayal rips our heart apart. After that, our capability to trust is lost. T.S. Eliot once  wrote, 'Unreal friendship may turn to real, but real friendship, once ended, cannot be mended.'

Sometimes even you don't know the reason behind your own unhappiness

Sometimes even you don't know the reason behind your own unhappiness, your own salty ocean of tears that suddenly start flowing without informing or asking just like an unwelcome guest, your decreasing level of serotonine, your unintentional changed behaviour, your lack of energy even though you are physically fit but you feel like there's something missing from inside. 

Seems relatable? If you can relate then congratulations you have all the symptoms of not being a mental case but a human being. We can have days full of festivities and sorrows. Even we can have days when everything seems perfect but still we feel that something is wrong. 

When these feelings of uncertainty hit you then instead of getting yourself used to with that numb soul try to find what exactly is the thing that is bothering you, where exactly you have gone wrong. Is your connection with your creator good enough? Or it's just like a last leaf left waiting for sudden cool breeze to vanish its existence? Or it's like a blooming flower that needs constant watering? Are you watering your flower of faith? Or are you procrastinating your care for it?

After finding your answer don't sit cuz it's your first accomplishment towards peace. Now work harder and harder to make your connection and faith in Almighty more and more ginormous. 

This is the way to eternal peace!
