*Best EID Gift ever*

*Old friends are like rain drops*

Refreshing and Invigorating!

*شکر*

آج میں بھوت خوش ہوں. الله تا'لا نے آج مجھے وہ سب کچھ دے دیا جس کی میں سالو سے دعا کرتی تھی. شکریہ. اے خدا تیرا بھوت بھوت شکریہ. جتنا بھی شکر کروں کم ہے. آج میری ساری فکرات دور ہو گیں ہیں.

*Why did you lie?*

"What season of the year do you like?" Kids ask such easy questions, I think as I look into the little eyes. "I like winter." I reply thinking how easy was that!!! Ready to go on to another easy question, I  leisurely twirl a strand of my hair.
"Why not summer?" hmm thats easy too. "because its too hot." I say. 

"But isn't there even one thing you like about summers?"

"well.....I DO like going back home and also the vacations ofcourse." 

"Aha! so you like summers too." 

"I guess..." now this is a good self revelation.

"and spring and fall?"

"erm.....well...now that I think of it, I DO like the colorul trees in fall and flowers in spring."

"uhum. i knew it!"
  "Knew what?"

"I knew you were lying when you said you like winter!!! Why did you lie?"

"Can we go back to the easy questions?" 

*Nothing I would change*

There is not a single thing I would like to change about my life today. For I just realized that It is perfect as it is, even with its many imperfections.  It's not with money, or perfectly tailored jobs that you find happiness. It is not with husbands with perfectly straight teeth or with children well mannered; also not with untarnished silverware or with a cottage near the sea side. I will tell you where happiness reside. and I will tell you now. It resides in taking a moment to close your eyes and feel wind pass through your hair. It is found in gold that sun scatters everywhere. To the rich and to the poor, the same amount. With a chance of equal happiness should we make the best use of rain and our backyard. It resides everywhere if we look through eyes of a child.Wonder dancing in our eyes, Faith in our decisions, Hoping for the best, Praying to the only One who is able to provide (Allah), and above all Enjoying whatever Allah has given. Being Grateful is the only way to have all the riches in the world.

*First time for everything*

I can't believe it. He talked to me very calmly for the very first time! I guess there is a first time for everything. I am soooo Happy. Finally, things are moving towards betterment. Finally things would be as they should be. 

*This is it*

The campus looks awesome when the weather is cloudy outside. When I look outside my window, I can't help but think, "This is it."  This is what I want to do for the rest of my life. The univ campus is SO beautiful and amazing!!! It reminds me of fairy tales and romantic love stories. =)

* winking cloud *

I promise it was winking!!! Okay - in order to make you understand the whole thing, I should start from the beginning. So there I was, minding my own business....walking as usual to the University Hall to get something to eat when I look up at the sky and there is this cute cloud, blatantly winking at me!!! can you imagine!!!! I was flabbergasted and I think I blushed a little too =)

*New Template*

I was getting awfully tired of the old one. :)

*Yaadein*

Log toh aatay hain, chalay jaatay hain

Dunya ka dastoor yahi

Tum usko magar dhundhalne na do

Uski yaad ka diya pighalne na do

Rakho ge gar yaadon mein ussay

Toh har baat uski ho jayegi amar

Gar jo sochoge usko sham o pahar

Paoge usko tum paas bhar

Magar yaadon mein nami dekho lana nahi

Kisi ki yaad ko gham banana nahi

Yaadein toh khoobsurat hoti hain

Jeenay ki ek tamanna, ek lau hoti hain

Unse muskarahat dekho aa jaane do

Yaadon ko amar tum ho jaane do
-Sana

*Manzil kahiN nahiN*

Manzilain toh daurh aati hain, raasta khula rakhna

Ek band darwaze ki aarh mein khidhki khuli rakhna

Ahat na ho jiske aane ki, aisi cheez hai takdeer

Uski roshni hi uske aane ki aamad battiyati hai

Who roshni bhi toh magar, tabhi chann ke aati hai

Jo band darwaze ki aarh mein, khidhki chuli nazar aati hai
