To uncertainty..



Eid Mubarak to all my wonderful readers with many prayers for your and your loved ones’ health, peace & prosperity...

Many times I sat in front of my computer to write something but I was unable to, I picked up projects which had to be completed at almost similar dates. When mind is engaged in one direction it becomes difficult to focus on other avenues, so the blog was abandoned for few weeks.

I always want to share positive and encouraging thoughts but today I cannot do so. I am sad and afraid today not for myself but for a dear friend of mine, she taught me so many things in life.

Healing, peace of mind, knowledge are all amazing the gifts she has given me, and as I write this post she is fighting a battle for her life. The heat wave and the weakness from fasting took a toll on her health, and like many other residents of Karachi she is going through heat stroke and all our prayers are dedicated for her health and well-being.

These days I am trying my best to restore my confidence and faith in life. If we look closely, we realize that everything is uncertain around and within us. And uncertainty is the mother of all fears and anxieties, especially if the future is concerned.

I don’t have any wise words to make peace with the circumstances, but I gather all my courage and pray for the best outcomes. One way of gathering courage, as I have learned, is by talking about my feelings and thoughts. It is always better to let your emotions and mind find a ventilation, let that energy come out of the body.

Once that heavy, dark energy flows out of the body- it is always replaced by light peaceful energy. It is not an exception but it is the rule, this is how the universe works; however, facing and letting go of what is bad and unhealthy is a great task.

Working on ourselves with a desire to become the best version of our self is the true purpose of all human beings.

Many prayers.

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…” . AND Thank You Allah for  this  amazing opportunity to write this blog. It is so true that how ...
