Despite the heat, despite the storms, despite the haze and despite the hail,
YOU never left me.
YOU gave me strength.
Though my heart alternates between turmoiled & still & I could go crazy facing all these weathers these past months, YOU have shown me & pushed me to take bold steps in taking ownership of my life & self-respect. I now trust no one, not even myself with my heart but only YOU.
What ever grand plan you have for us, I am just thankful that in these troubled times I have learnt that what best to do is to return my heart to YOU, the Best of planners & the Turner of hearts.
Guide us to the straight path - The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray. (Al-Fatihah: 6-7)

letting go & letting God guide tis lil heart
Something I read today that was so resounding to me right now.
Left me weak with helplessness but fortified with love & blessed feelings.
"Allah gives us gifts, but then we come to love them as we should only love Him. We take those gifts and inject them into our hearts, until they take over. Soon we cannot live without them. Every waking moment is spent in contemplation of them, in submission and worship to them. The mind and the heart that was created by Allah, for Allah, becomes the property of someone or something else. And then the fear comes. The fear of loss begins to cripple us. The gift—that should have remained in our hands—takes over our heart, so the fear of losing it consumes us. Soon, what was once a gift becomes a weapon of torture and a prison of our own making. How can we be freed of this? At times, in His infinite mercy, Allah frees us…by taking it away.
As a result of it being taken, we turn to Allah wholeheartedly. In that desperation and need, we ask, we beg, we pray. Through the loss, we reach a level of Sincerity and Humility and Dependence on Him which we would otherwise not reach—had it not been taken from us. Through the loss, our hearts turn entirely to face Him."
Bless Yasmin Mogahed dear Lord, for her da'wah puts stillness in my restless heart.

Goodbye Multiply...
HELLO!
It's a fresh start here in the blogsphere as I have finally exported all what I needed from Multiply as it changes its direction to cater for e-commerce in the Sout East Asia. Albeit the lil hiccups here & there, well I guess a change might be refreshingly good! So here's a lil homage to my ol homepage...no longer lost in that Wonderland....
For a start, I do love my new customised blog look! Haha! It's customising frenzy again after years of getting things all nice and cosy there in Multiply. For such a person who indulges herself in photography, now I have to find some place else to stash & share my photos!
I'm not gonna get all stressed out over tis, honestly i'm much more crazy busy jugglin all the great stuff goin in my life, somethin I couldn't quite proclaim earlier tis year...I thought 2012 was about to just erode my life wastefully but somehow with a twist of fate, the year seems not likely to end on a pathetic note! I have been creatively active & social & it makes me feel Alive!
Alhamdulillah! Wheeehoo!
