To Clarity and Macrame!



I am excited today. May be its natural to feel excitement after taking two cups of strong coffee or may be the events that unfolded today are thrilling me. Whatever it is I am thankful to see things clearly now and have a perspective. 

But more importantly it is healthy to take a step back from your life, from the routine things & thoughts and simply watch yourself from a distance.

Trust me, when you move yourself out of the ordinary, extraordinary becomes visible. Albert Einstein said that time and space are illusions, ‘you there – me here’, is only the limitation of our eyesight. Beneath all distances we are all one, so intertwined-knitted together that we do not even know where one ends and the other begins.  

I have received an incredible email today, the content of which I want to share with all of you. However, I need to get the permission of sender of this email first before I could go on and share some bits of past and how amazingly this is truly a small world.

This was a good weekend and I happened to rekindle my love story. Yes I am in love with this amazing Gentleman, he is sincere, honest, very simple, but extremely intelligent and yes he has understated charms. I met him almost seven years ago and the moment I saw him I knew that he is very special and we are going to be together for a long time.

For the past few years we were not on much friendly terms but this last Saturday, I went to him and apologized for my past behaviour and also asked him if he could give Us another chance. The good part is that I have the blessings of his parents, especially his Mom and his Grandmother who loves me as their own.

I was invited for dinner by his Mom and he was sitting in the other with his cousin, we didn’t talk much but by the time we were having deserts he had a problem. The macramé curtains of his room got stuck in the chair on which he was sitting, playing a chef of a big restaurant. There I heard him saying ‘Sonya Khala! what am I going to do now, Mama is going to kill me...’

I sat down with him and together we both got the macramé out of the chair, and then seeing the right moment, I apologized for not visiting him regularly. 

You see from the time he was born till he was five we had a great friendship; but for the last couple of years I was unable to visit him frequently, so he was really angry with me.

Many times I tried to talk to him and my friend also tried her best to convince him to mingle with me, but all in vain. However on Saturday, when I said that I am very sorry for disappointing him- he quickly forgave me, and I knew that I got my little baby Mustafa back. 

He is seven now Masha Allah, an absolutely adorable child and I love him. And Sadia, this wouldn’t have been possible without your help.

Love xoxo!

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...

Magic or Miracles..continued

"Sadia Saleem   Another good one...ur blogs have always uplifted my spirits in some way, but this one being totally different gives us a small grasp at just how powerful our Almighty is...our praises are just a measurement of our faith in Him and our worships are a manifestation of that measurement...ur blog actually took me in d flashbacks and I remembered when we actually landed up at a babas astana for d sake of fun...at times those carefree days are deeply missed       keep up the best work    " This one is especially for my best friend Sadia who has always shown me her love, appreciation and encouragement. And of course, how can I forget all of you for always blessing me with your affections. Sadia and all of my Dear Readers, I thank you so much from my heart for responding so beautifully for my post “Miracles & Magic? I wonder…” .
