a collection of thoughts.

[sunnymehr3]

the past is always an interesting door

the all too familiar scent of a once upon a time history what could’ve been, could it still?

i catch myself in a second’s trance of delusion

i catch the thought just as quickly as it entered,

and smile, bittersweet, at the blessed encounters that were only written for me.

for even if it hurt a past version of me, my expectations only heightened

and for that, i am eternally grateful. <3

رَمَضَان مُبَارَك

As the blessed crescent draws near, I reflect upon intention, praying this is the year it fully translates into action.

I let the reminder ring, that even tonight could be the end of this journey.

May our hearts be enveloped in divine Mercy. Fall so deeply in love with the Creator - and watch as every other affair falls into place in a most perfect array.

heartfelt conversations with my Creator, for i’ve come to learn that there is truly nothing Greater. As i speak with the Greatest, i ponder upon how foreign the noise of this life can be.

.رحمة

As much as I wish I could have it all, I wonder if that satisfaction would still allow me to lower my head to the Almighty. As much as my heart aches from the trials of this life, would achieving peace in this dunya truly content my soul?

Perhaps Allah knows that if I were to have my every desire fulfilled in a temporary world, I would never be able to achieve the fulfillment my soul receives when my sorrows and regrets meet His mercy in sujood. The sweetness of His Divine Mercy, amidst the chaos of the world that surrounds me. It is a comforting feeling, then, to know that trials associated with a temporary world can promise me peace in a permanent, eternal abode.

میراث

The only permanent promise bestowed upon us is death. Every interaction, moment, memory, and behaviour leading up is, in itself, entirely temporary nature. The all-encompassing guarantee of death remains, so what impact would we like to have before it is too late?

“When you become accepting of everything, you stand for nothing.”

[sunnymehr3]

حقیقی

The truth is, we will only ever know a version of every soul we encounter. Give the benefit of the doubt and rather, hold the utmost expectation of authenticity from yourself.

For only your intentions, actions and reactions remain under your control. Focus on your growth, and watch as all else beautifully falls into place.

[sunnymehr3]

دعا

perhaps we go thru moments of pain

and remembrance of those in pain,

because they are in dire need of our duas.

so make that dua,

and rest your heart assured

for the matter is with the Divine:

beyond the control of mere worldly distress.

[sunnymehr3]

فرض ادا

Parts of me are not mine in entirety, for the marks left by significant souls have fostered a version reigning with an unparalleled beauty. Parts of my heart, now softened and renewed. But other fragments turned dark, a due effect of the harsher realities presented by a temporary life. So each day becomes a journey, as I work towards softening these flaws, just as my heart was cared for and understood. And regardless of what love is written for me, I will continue bettering my individual self. For looks too, will fade some day soon. But the beauty of the soul, illuminates through in timeless eras: now and beyond.

يقين.

Why is it that you so often find yourself standing in your own way? Why is it that you allow past versions of yourself to cloud your judgement? Why is it that you believe you’re so undeserving; though your Lord’s instantaneous blessings serve only to prove otherwise?

These doubts constitute diseases of the heart. Self-doubt so strong you undermine the blessings and talents Allah ﷻ has provisioned for you. Your potential is unimaginable; free yourself from the shackles of underestimation. Know your worth, so these clouds of doubt cease to take their advantage when trials afflict. Your Lord crafted you perfectly - out of divine love, beyond admirably.

So stand firm, even as the earth beneath you seems to crumble. Stand with certainty, for your numbered years in this life hold the potential to bless your eternity. An eternal abode forever reigning in permanence, securing a contentment this worldly life could never promise.

It's okay

to feel drained, this temporary life wasn't purposed for our mere leisure.

to have your heartache, for the void only Allah can pervade.

It's okay to regret -

because the goodness of your soul is reminded

that only your lord is oft-Forgiving.

It's okay

to let your silenced tears fall into Allah's grasp

for He is our Sustainer, the One to promise ease

even as trials rage louder.

[sunnymehr3]

محنتی

Striving through the struggles, trials and tribulations will always be worth far more than settling for what's available. For you realize the worth of all that your Lord has blessed you with. Strive towards what you're deserving of, and watch as unimaginable blessings unravel just for you.

Loss is perhaps one of the greatest tests upon the character of man. We spend years upon years strengthening our character, polishing our skills, aiming to become our better selves as we strive towards accomplishing our goals and aspirations. Yet, that moment of loss, the very moment of unpredictability can leave one's life shaken. A forced removal from your accustomed comfort zones, as your delicately aligned playing pieces topple over.

It is this breaking point which can truly reshape one - for better I hope, but momentarily for worse. Will you find the beauty in redirection? Or encompass yourself with regrets of a life which has now passed you?

Focus on what is in your control. For the faults of yesterday amount to mere memories, but a better tomorrow is dependent on now.

بابا

Happy Father’s Day,

to the one’s we never met.

to the one’s who passed too soon,

to the one’s who live on in our hearts.

Happy Father’s Day,

to the one’s we wish we knew,

who play a role in our lives - yet we question if they’re alright.

Happy Father’s Day,

to the Father’s who have lost their own.

Who’ve faced too much trauma, but brighten their smile with each passing day.

Though some sacrifices we may never understand, let our names and character beautify their struggle for generations to come.
