My Two Cents

Allhumdolillah! I am at a much better place since my last post with series of lab tests, utlrasounds, a mammogram and some other really scary tests, and a gut wrenching anxiety of results. I am doing well thankfully everything was clear except low iron levels with vitamin d3 deficiency. These deficiencies are now on their way to recovery. It is worth noting that I have been struggling with intense brain and physical fatigue since 2019 but not a single doctor was able to identify my problem. Once somebody is diagnosed with depression or anxiety then every health issue they complain about is looked from the psychological lenses. Nobody asked me to check iron, vitamin b12 or vitamin d3 deficiencies even my mum who is a dermatologist always assured me that I am fine and this weakness is just a phase.   It was a phase alright, it engulfed almost 8 years of my life pushed back my career and research ambitions.  This is not the case alone with me but there are many people who silentl...

Busy–ness & Expediency vs. Love

I apprehend that I might have somehow gave an impression of being very busy lately as I am most of the time inactive on facebook and lazy with other modes of communication but the truth of the matter is that I try my best to keep myself active. Busy as well as being creative and productive with our time I think is a sheer blessing, therefore my day routine is almost moving from one quarter of an hour to another with many chores and at the end of it all when I sit in front of this 14’’ screen and put my heart out to all of you is the most wonderful climax I could imagine to my day. Although I was also busy in the past; nevertheless, it was only to meet my own requirements and lift the burden of regular life. Life could become a miracle with magnificent outcomes when you surrender it to the Higher Power and let Him navigate every moment, hour and day. This is what happens to me when I am tired, I speak of things which have significance for me only and I overlook the fact ...

Patience & faith, two sides of the same coin

I miss reading my books, there are couple of them which are lying in my room waiting for me to pick them up, to smell the fragrance of pages, to cherish them with my eyes and allow them to enrich my senses. But the paucity of time or my inability to mange it properly is the main hindrance and whenever I would get some free time I just become a couch potato. Concentration is such a fragile entity that if not handled carefully it could vanish into thin air. So is the case with me tonight, there are couple of things on my mind and I am becoming impatient to connect and resolve them. However, there are some delicate matters which are better handled if you do absolutely nothing to resolve them- just wait patiently and watch everything to fall into its place. Patience is very much a crucial ingredient in the recipe of life as it also another side of faith. Faith on an Unseen Power or Energy; faith on the instinctive feeling and the resolute faith that the wish shall be fulfilled. Although ...

Day 131

Appreciation especially when come from a close quarter is beyond any well-celebrated achievement award. Acknowledgment of our efforts and the sincerity with which they are conducted would always keep one in high spirits. Its once again midnight and I am as usual pass my due bedtime, I don’t understand that the more I struggle to get things done within my schedule the more they go out of hands. I need to give a serious thought to all this and be absolute about them but dearest ones if I continue anymore in this drowsy state which I am in, I fear that I might fall asleep on the keyboard because now the words in front of me are becoming blurred. Its only your presence and love which invoke in me this commitment. So be there always. My love & a very Good Night. Sonya. (Day 131)

True riches

Is it only with me or the rest of you could also sense the ephemerality of days. It was Monday only yesterday and then there is another one and Fridays arriving within two days. Beside an hour which I dedicatedly spend on watching my favourite TV shows most of the day I keep on running from one point to another.   However, these days I have the contentment that the time I spend is worth every moment where I am either learning something new or being effective and worthwhile for others. Being of any service to others is such a phenomenal experience and the fact that there is no monetary gain involved does not effect the quality of the work. I for one has worked relentlessly for many years as a lawyer, had power, worked with some of the Bigs of legal as well as the business world and earned few bucks as well but honestly none of those above things gave me any peace. I use to be exhausted, bitter, short-tempered and always on guard with most of the people I met.   And now when the...

Day 129

Thank you all so much for the special messages of love, encouragement and appreciation for me and our little blog here. It is so wonderful to have the presence of so many amazing individuals on the blog and with such perseverance. I once again thank all of you for taking time from your busy schedules to visit this blog and for the immense love which you have shown. I pray that the little family or tribe which all of us have created through this platform may prosper for all the days to come and so shall all of you. Ameen!! Monday has once again approached and so as the timetable for the coming week. Waking up early in morning then attempting to do any form of exercise and finally getting ready to embrace the beauty and warmth which the rest of the day would bring into my existence requires proper planning as well as thorough discipline. Although I seriously wanted to hang out for a little longer but then the midnight beckons me to sleep. So I apologize for the brief post today and ho...
