Hope

As she walks down the path,

In the dull sun-set light,

Wondering where it all went wrong,

What was the mistake,

Her hair in a lose hair tie,

Her face bare of all the gloss,

Her eyes pale,

Questioning herself she wandered around,

Thinking of her past,

Leaving so many scars,

But somehow, somewhere in her heart,

Hope still lives,

Keeping her self intact,

Keeping her sane,

It's hope that still lives.

Self-Obsession.

Assalam O Alaikum And Greetings fellow people!

How are you doing? So.... Its been long since I posted anything. I am back in Karachi now Alhumdulillah and basically lazing around (reason for no-pictorial-post) and sleeping and eating. So I decided I should interact and post something, how ever small it may be.
This is a self-obsessed post which means you will get to know some completely random facts about me.

• I love Great Britain's accent. I can literally sit and listen to them all day.
• One day, I would like to visit Turkey and Australia and Venice.
• I LOVE roaming around the house in my PJ's.
• My favorite T-shirt is the biggest one I have got (and the softest one).
• When something is super nice I use the word 'best-est' for it, which, I know is completely wrong but... I use it anyway.
• I shiver really bad when surprised.
• I dont say out loud what I feel but I write, which is more intense then saying out loud.
• I love having those deep, intense and meaningful conversations with some of my family members and my best friends.
• I write random stuff and expect to read it after years and laugh on it, but what happens is, when I read my old stuff now, I get embarrassed AND say this alot 'Seriously?'.
• I get obsessed with colors for a while and in that while most of the things I have are of that color. These days its Royal Blue by the way.
• I LOVE kids.
• I REALLY DONT LIKE airplanes, flights, airports. I hate goodbyes. I dont like long, boring flights (they dont even serve nice food most of the time)
• As much as I say I love food, I dont eat as much.
• My best friend has crazy plans for my future.
• I love recieving letters, like, hand written letters.
• Hand-made things attract me more then anything else. It is a gesture of the fact that a person is so caring they made something for you themselves.
• I cry even during animated movies like Lion King. I cry while reading too. It looks like my tears are just waiting to come out!
• I love when I get to watch a really cool series with my family. We've watched so many together like One Tree Hill, Grey's Anatomy, House MD and Castle.

That's that. Hope you have a good week and a great weekend!
Sending Smiles your way! :)

Eid Mubarak

Assalam O Alaikum fellows!
A very hearty Eid Mubarak to you all. This Eid I realized something more. Eid without home is no eid at all. I miss home alot more now! But I will be returning soon!
Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful Eid!
Dont forget to pray for Ummah that is in severe pain these days. That is all we can do for them!

Hopes, Omens and Amusements

Assalam O Alaikum and greetings!
                                                        How are you all doing? I am doing great. I am in Saudi Arabia these days and this is an amazing place truely. A pictorial tour might come to your end when I go back to Karachi, Pk in august. As for now, I am enjoying my time here.
                           The thing that influences me most are words. Words spoken or written are very influential though in my case written words are huge and important. Usually when I cant communicate something directly, I'd write it down for that person and you guys actually have seen that example here on the blog. I read the book Alchemist By Paulo Coehlo long time ago and Omens were discussed profusely in it. Now I am experiencing this strangely amazing thing, I am thinking a negative aspect in my mind or I am feeling dishearted or low, somehow words, strangthening-words show up, somehow they do. It is someone's whatsapp profile picture, A verse from Quran on facebook, a quote picture on facebook or just somehow words pop up and it's just so... strange and.. beautiful. One example that I could tell you all is I keep a really small paper below my mobile cover and my cover is transparent so I can actually see the paper beneath it easily. I write things to myself that I think if I ever read would give me positivity, some people call me crazy for doing this. The line I wrote on that paper is: 'Tomorrow will be yours... Don't give up'. I'd lost that paper when I came here. Now I was thinking how I try getting over one bad thing and the second comes up and how I am just tackling it and stuff and I look at the floor and I see this paper which has these words: 'Tomorrow will be yours... Don't give up' It's the same piece of paper I thought I lost. And I am JUST AMUSED. I am awe-struck wondering Has this been happening since forever or am I so late to notice? Anyways I picked my paper up stuck it under my cover again. See, the thing is Never lose hope. I know in my heart, God Almighty has been sending those good omens, letting me know, He knows and understands. I feel blessed, Alhumdulillah! & fellows this is just one example I have given you, there are numerous happening that I don't even remember.
                                I know, things happen, you loose people, you fail at things, alot of stuff goes crazy bad, but hey, dont lose hope! Times will change, things will get better, they might never be the same again, but they will be okay. Perfect just comes once!
I know I got a lot of catching up to do with you all and I am sorry I interact alot less then I used to. I litterally find it hard to share things now, which is odd. I dont know how but during this last paragraph something bumped into my mind. You all writers out there know, when you are writing something, you have a specific tone, voice for it and then somebody is reading something written by you and they are not reading it like that and you go thinking in your mind: Man! They got it wrong!! LOL It happens with me. I write something and I read it in one particular way and then someone else reads it in entirely different way and I say to myself: They killed my thing!!
Anndddd this brings me to thinking if you even got my joke or not!
                             Alot of times I try being cooler and think of scheduling my posts but as soon as I write one I just can not wait to throw it out there and get y'all's reviews on it and the page views and stuff! I don't even know if it's 'cooler' to schedule a post or not.. Err.. I just wrote it, just like that!


I guess I talked alot. So for now, I am going away. Hey! Ramadan is appraoching, So Ramadan Mubarak\Ramadan Kareem to all my Muslim fellows out there. I hope and pray you all make most of it and get great rewards for all your deeds and get to enjoy a fabulous Eid! Don't forget to pray for the Ummah,specially for the Ummah in trouble (Palestine, Kashmir and others).


May ALLAH grant us all Emaan!

Proudly Presenting: Changing perspectives on Muslim Women

A student in the US made a video for her project, which shows my blog giving out the message that Muslim women are not caged, that we are as free as we should be. I realize this is a greater opportunity than I thought, Social media makes more difference than it seems like, it changes perspectives and thoughts of many. I will try bringing up more positivity and goodness about Muslims and Pakistan so that people would know, we're good folks as normal and as humane as we should be!

Hey, Facebookers

To everybody who is here through my status,
Boo yaaahhhhh!! :D
Yes, Here this is, my place.
I know it's a bit too late to be telling you (soon-to-be-two-years Precisely)
But I have never been a very open person. I have always been shy and reserved about my writings and drawings. Before you point out a mistake, do know, that I am still new at this. Before you say its good.. well.. go ahead and say because I know I am awesome! :D
Thankyou that you dropped by, mushkil waqt mein wesay bhi apnay hi kaam atay hain, aap logon k anay se meray pageviews aur khoon dono bohat barhay hain, Shukriya! :D
Aur ye k itni casual posts main yehan kerti nahien hun, yahan meri shakhsiyat khaasi mukhtalif hai, Magar for you... :p
Now that you are here, explore, I hope you all will like it, not that it is extra amazing or that I write real good. But only because this place is created with hope, dreams and love.
Enjoy!

I see you

When passes a shadow, thats full of light
I see you.
When I sleep, in my dreams,
I see you
Every passing moment, every passing day,
I see you.
In pictures divine, back in the sands of time,
I see you.
When the dark covers the light, when nothing comes to sight,
I see you.
Not a word, not a tear, not a cry,
But, its all true,
That I see you.
I see you smile, I see your pride,
I see you, even in the times not so bright.
When after a tiring day, I lay on my bed,
Giving me hope, I see you.
When things go wrong and people fight,
Helping me up again, I see you.
My tears have dried, cleared my eyes,
I feel you near and I see YOU!
