Yes.... After all...!!!!!


                                          Yes.... After all...!!!!!


Yes... I am born today,
Today is my day,
I deserve whole world's happiness today,
Because its my birthday today,
I wait for 364 days every year for this day.
Said he, with a spark in his eyes,
Met him on this very day,
Started off to know him from this very day,
Because he was born this very day.
I chum up with him, like everyday,
I make him laugh, he makes me happy,
like everyday,
Our actions are entirely same,
People would say that this is lame,
But I say we are made of the same clay,
Close to each other we always gonna stay,
His motive, to seek happiness for evey soul,
My motive, to seek bright smile, but not foul,
He is finding himself along the walk,
I am finding ray for him to keep up the walk,
So many shades of grey, yearns my soul and tears me apart,
A verve of delight for him, is all I want never to depart,
Complacent in the mob,
Melancholic when all alone,
Catena of tapers, shook him to the soul,
Blast of happiness converts to stagnation all at once,
When trails of flashback struck him at once,
He wants to be happy, so do I for him,
After all "he" is "me",
After all he is my own " shadow self."

I am my own Inspiration

"I am my own inspiration. I honestly don’t know what I would’ve done without me ." That may sound bold, but if you knew the nights I’ve spent crying into my pillow—aching quietly while the world slept—and the mornings I still showed up like nothing cracked… you’d understand. If you knew how many times life tried to break me into pieces, and how I calmly gathered each one and turned it into something beautiful,  you’d understand why I walk with quiet strength now. Life , this four-letter word we throw around casually, carries galaxies within it. Joy and grief. Surprise and stillness. Storms and sudden sunlight. It isn’t one emotion or one season, it’s all of it, layered like brushstrokes in a portrait we’re painting every day. We often wait for clarity to hit like a lightning bolt. Or worse, we brace for the worst just when hope peeks through. We climb high with joy when something works out, and then fall harder when it doesn’t. But maybe we need to stop swinging so wildly ...

Think You’ve Wasted the First 20 Days of Ramadan? Read This Before Tonight.

Twenty days of Ramadan… gone. I blinked and suddenly we’re here. The third Friday of Ramadan. When the month began, I had a clear picture in my head of what my Ramadan would look like. I had goals... real goals. I was going to wake up regularly for Tahajjud, read the Qur'an slowly with reflection, make long thoughtful duas, and keep distractions away as much as possible. I imagined a calm Ramadan where my days felt intentional and my nights felt deeply connected to Allah. I thought Ramadan would slow life down. Instead, life kept running and I kept trying to catch my breath. Work kept moving. Responsibilities stayed exactly where they were. Sleep schedules became unpredictable. Some days felt like a blur between suhoor, work, iftar, son's exams and trying to gather enough energy to make it through the next day. I kept telling myself I would slow down tomorrow. Tomorrow I would read more Qur’an. Tomorrow I would sit down and make a proper dua list. Tomorrow I would catch up. ...
