Trial and error

Not for a moment do I regret the heart ache.
It taught me my strengths and my weaknesses..
It opened my eyes to human nature.

I don’t regret my loving.
Everything came full circle..
Not in the way I had imagined, But it did.

At the darkest of moments,.
I learned the most profound.
At the lowest of all lows..
It made me recognize that special kind of light.
In the end I found the one

It was through trial and error and I’ll always be grateful.

An opinion

I feel that our Creator (God, Allah, or whatever name you recognize to identify Him), provided several books of Revelation which are specific remedies to life and co-existence among nations. Of course I’m referring to the un-adultered,original revelations/books.
I don’t feel that you could possibly take the wrong remedy, but I feel you can take the wrong dose. Sometimes our judgement gets the best of us, and we end up overdosing. Sometimes less is more.

I wish that we could see that the solutions are many. Show more love and compassion that we’re all taught;  embrace each other for as much as we are different, we are all one and the same; ultimately and hopefully meeting at the same destination.

Lord knows

You may not see what it is I do from day to day, on a daily basis, But I assure you I get just as tired as you. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty. My hands are dry, from washing them all the time. I care for another person's well being as if it were my own life to live. Al the while I push away the fatigue and try to find a way to make you and them smile. I try to listen, motivate,support and inspire. My family is all I have and it's all I want, and I do my best to make a home... a home. Some days it looks easy, but I assure you it is not. I may not get a paycheck, But my reward is with God. You may not see what I contribute to society, But I am certain of God's knowledge. Its not always easy standing firm like a pillar for those you love, when you feel like you yourself, need to scream. But, what good would that do? Who would listen?  I may not respond to emotional outburts, But Lord knows how I listen. Its not what you say, But how you say it that's important.
Lord knows what is in my heart of hearts. Lord knows what I can not convey in this little post. Lord knows the peace and tranquility I desire. Lord knows my intentions.

ALLAHU ALIM.

To live

We all just want to live don't we?

But what happens when things get in the way of your living your life comfortably as you would like, or desire?

Some accept the dirt they stand on.

Others have no qualms about stepping over you..

Its a nasty climb to the top, ain't it?

If only we could change our definition of what it is to live and be a human being...

I'll continue to dream.

Hot headed

Few words of advice.

Life gets hard, don't allow yourself to take it out on those you love the most. Your family... However and whoever  you may define your 'family' as.. Blood relatives, friends, ect. If you don't treat those relationships with care, you'll begin to see those relationships deteriorate. Emotions are real and there's no sense in hiding them, But there are sensible ways of expressing them. A little effort, will go a long way. God willing.

Business

Do,learn and experience things because you're doing what you love and enjoy. Don't allow yourself to become another person's business embarkment or safety net. You are not a tool, you're another human being.
I've learned many the hard way that family and friend relationships do not mix well with business. There are more often than not, strings attached. There is some personal gain in the recruitment. This here is where I draw the line... I much rather keep to myself.
Nurture skill and talent within' yourselves and not through the use of other people to get a step up. Especially from those you call family and friends.

Why not

By His grace He made you and I as we are. So why in this world, isn't that enough? To Be and feel content. To love and accept others without strings attached. To appreciate someone purely for their existence alone. No expectations, no obligations. Just simple love and happiness.
