Love is in the air....


I do not know the reason but I just wanted this to be my tag line for today. I am so grateful for all the prayers and love which I am receiving these days. Some of my family members are performing Umrah these days and their prayers are enveloping me in sheer love.  

         If you listen carefully to your heart and focus on your feelings you can actually experience people’s prayers for you. It is magnificent when your kith and kin love you; nevertheless, it is a blessing when people genetically unrelated to you have compassion for you.    
       
We all have a very bollywood oriented idea of love- where a dashing boy meets a beautiful girl, they sing and dance, get separated by the harsh world, boy fights the villain, get back the girl of his dream, again sing and dance, and live happily after.

Love has different meaning for all of us. For me love means happiness, health, prosperity, forgiveness and accepting everyone just as they are without the the compulsive need to change anybody. 

And honestly speaking this acceptance really eases the life.

We all behave foolishly at some point in our lives, when we act impulsively without foreseeing the long-term consequences of our actions. Sometimes we do certain things believing that it’s all for fun, a pastime but little do we know that our little fun can get us by throat. 

After realizing the seriousness of our fun what we are left with is the feeling of embarrassment. Our pastime, our fun sometimes get the power to haunt us for an eternity.

This world is really a tiny place and we never know whom we would meet the next moment; especially in the hour of our need. So lets pray that we may be blessed with the opportunity to atone for our mistakes and the wisdom to always act with integrity and grace. Amen!

Have a wonderful weekend...

Be safe, have fun:)

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS): What It Actually Feels Like

Wow! It feels nice to be back to my favourite place in the world, my blog, my love. But today it seems that the world has rotated 360 degrees. As I was trying to figure out how to tap into this new world order I thought the best way is to ask my Higher Power to guide me through. And what a better way to do that, other than recite a prayer ‘Dua Istikhara’ a supplication used by Muslims to seek guidance from Allah before making a decision. If we just read the translation of this supplication: “O Allah, I seek guidance from Your knowledge and power and ask You from Your great bounty. Surely, you can do it, and I am not. You know, and I do not, and You are the Knower of the unseen. O Allah, if You know that this matter is good for me in my religion, life, and end, then decree it for me, make it easy, and bless it for me. But if You know that this matter is bad for me, in my religion, my existence, and my end, then turn it away from me and turn me away from it, and decree for me what is g...

3 January 2019

After fighting with an alien cat in my dream, I am awake at 1.30 am. It all is followed by a futile effort of building a sleep pattern of 9.30 pm to 6 am. Alas, not all wishes come true at once. No problem I will keep on working. Being a really smart gal I have messed up with my sleep-wake cycle long ago, and today when I accidentally opened Rujuta Diwekar’s video on cortisol on my facebook page- I realized what has been going on with me.  For all of you who are not aware that I am a distant relative of Kareena Kapoor Khan and Rujuta is the link who tied  Kareena and me  together. You all must be wondering why have I never discussed this earlier, why I took so long to disclose my bond with Kareena. Let me explain.   Rujuta Diwekar is a God’s blessing for all the fools like me who for some stranger reason believe(ed) that going on USA or UK-based diet programs would make us patla (thin/ lean). It was Rujuta’s eating desi ghee and daal sabzi ch...

The Telecom Bill That Slipped Through While Pakistan Looked Elsewhere

While we were all mourning the petrol price hikes and drowning in the chaos of inflation, IT Minister Shaza Fatima Khawaja quietly tabled the Pakistan Telecommunication (Re-organisation) (Amendment) Bill 2026. Most of us didn't even notice. The bill amended the 1996 Pakistan Telecommunication (Re-Organization) Act. It redefined certain terms and replaced Section 27A on Right of Way with a new Section 27B. What sounds like routine legislative work is anything but ordinary. This bill grants state-backed authorization to telecom companies to take over any private property or land and install 5G infrastructure including mobile towers and fiber-optic networks wherever they please. No consent required. No negotiation. Just entry and installation. The astonishing reality is that this draconian bill which grossly violates the fundamental rights of Pakistanis was approved by majority vote in the National Assembly on June 11, 2026. Not a single member objected. Nobody raised their voic...
