When we awake every day from the night's repose , our humanity returns and we begin again to seek happiness . Some days it is harder to find .. so we can simply ask for its vision . When our eyes are meant to find it , from His planning, it will be there in front of us.
Our job is to ask, persevere with faith and certainty that IT is there .. around some corner. Let us never be in despair ..even if the road looks bleak at the moment . TODAY is a PRESENT for us to open up..minute by minute and find the JOY within it . As we walk the path today , be jovial and face the tasks in levity ... when our thoughts are light so too will be the chores .
Aging in grace will come to us with this attitude ..knowing that the final rest is good for all those who seek HIS countenance . Keep the faith and let your little candle burn bright for all to see HIS power.

Eid ul Fitr 1431 (2010)
Every year Ramadan visits our homes and gives us the opportunity to refresh and reactivate our RUH ( spirit) and find the depth of LOVE that we feel for our RAbb . Once more , this JOY of seeking and finding HIM is appreciated ... as we are weak spirits , we humans all trying to find our way to meet our Master again in the Hereafter.
The lessons this year for me : surrender more sincerely to HIS daily plan for me ..allowing the grand scheme of things to surface at the end. Disregard the worry button every day and allow the faith to lift and carry me up and through the crises. Reach out to learn from those wiser than I ..in faith and submission. Serve JUST where I am placed each day ! Bow down in humility , accepting the winds of change and bend with them . Seek repentance daily . Never look down on another's condition ..only to give them support to rise up.
Allow the patient "button" to be turned on every second of my life.
Grow in wisdom and grace daily with these previous ingredients .

Ramadan Kareem
Ramadan is a blessed visitor into our homes ..giving us a chance to re-focus our priorities and face HIS design directly. Ask to know His will ... you will then feel secure in whatever you are doing . With this friend and ally beside us , we can look in the mirror and see whatever we have become . If there is a need to change , then see that too . Ask for support to make the change and go forward.
The quest for purification this mon th is foremost ... doing whatever we have strength to manage ..fasts, extra prayers, good deeds, Zakat ,reading extra Quran , honorable intentions with those with whom we fraternize . Help whenever we can ...as we are able. Reach out to see other's plight ... remembering the Quls of gratitude for them and us .
As we face the final Judgment , we can know that what we have done for Allah's pleasure only, will stand beside us and support our final Journey to HIM . Believe in that premise ... accepting HIS forgiveness , mercy and hope for a good outcome for us at the end .
RAmadan is a great friend , who visits us annually ..giving us a chance to rectify our path ... please dear God, Our Rabb , help us to see clearly your wish for us . Let our Love for you reign supreme as we face the future journey.
These last 8 nights now are a great chance to make duwah, read Quran and HOPE for good outcomes . AMIN !
