My wonky walk

A song in my heart
A tune in my head
Oblivious to the world
At my own pace I tread.

Things aren’t as bad as they seem

God does not put every bird’s food in its nest. Is that how the saying goes? Oh well, something like that.

It explains a lot of things – like why we have to work hard to earn a living, study hard to be successful and make sacrifices now to gain better rewards in future.

When problems pile up and there seems to be no end in sight, it is worth remembering that Allah knows my plight. Therefore I shouldn’t fret or panic or get stressed out. I must have faith that things will work out. I must have hope. With all that, I must continue to do whatever is within my limits to ease my dilemma. Allah helps those who help themselves. If I don’t work on my problems, it is not correct for me to expect a solution to land in my lap.

I ought to treat every phase in my life as a learning experience for the next phase. What I do today is for tomorrow. What I do in the Dunya is for the Akhira, Insha Allah.

Smile Through The Tears

Smile through the tears smiley_face_sad_face_hologram_tongue_ring.jpg
Face your fears
Have confidence that
You’ll emerge victorious

Bend not to peers
Nor care about their leers
Of your ability
They know not a thing

In Him Who Hears
Have faith, my dears
Stray not
Hold on, I plead

Our troubles He clears
In answer to prayers
From what I have seen
I speak

Life in this world
Isn’t eternal
Each day that passes
Just a page in your journal

Work for the Hereafter
Where true bliss does await
So we shall not regret
When it is too late
