Season of Colors

So it's that time of the year again.  Cardigans, warm socks, big mugs of coffee and hot chocolate, nice quiet evenings by the telly or curling up to read a nice romantic novel, salting the driveway, waking up early to shovel the beautiful glistening snow in the early morning moonlight. Before we welcome Winter to our doors we must first welcome its best friend, Autumn.  I love Autumn mainly for  how crisp it feels in the morning and the bright vibrant colors the leaves change to.  I love watching my kids excitedly collect big gigantic leaves in all sort of colors and sizes so that we can make our Fall collage.
 I like hearing the wind howl at night as it blows the leaves to and fro making all sorts of noises.  The colors that this season brings is just breathtaking, it makes you take seconds out of your days and evenings to marvel over God's creations...makes you realize that anything and everything is possible. And Fall brings with it a season of new beginnings, the beautiful thing about beginnings is that you don't know what's ahead of your journey but leaving your faith in the one above never fails to put your minds at ease.. Welcome Autumn!

Tears

When I see her tears, her pain why do I ache in here? Is this justice? If the burden of both tears and pain were her, what justice would that be? Were her tears and her pain to be mine, justice would be done The tears welled up from her heart. I made her cry.  When her tears stream down here why do I ache in here? She says I don’t understand anything.  If I never understood anything, How come I understand what I am and what she is ?

Project Akhirah

This week I had the honor of learning more about a new Non profit organization still in its early stages yet has been successful beyond words; this charity is called Project Akhirah. A very close friend and sister of mine, Amina Farah, first reached out to me to discuss Project Akhirah and her volunteer work with this incredible organization. Project Akhirah is very new and thriving and looking to get the word out of what their organization wishes to accomplish. I decided why not write a blog! I’m always looking for reasons to sit back and type away. Project Akhirah is a Non profit organization set up in 2013 by a group of young Muslimahs’ in hopes of making a difference in the lives of the less fortunate, those whose lives are laden with poverty and suffering.  However each of the girls were personally affected by the crisis in Syria in particular and felt it a responsibility to help towards this cause. As a group they had made pledges to raise enough funds to donate to the ...

In Laws

This is absolutely ridiculous! Of all the days to be stuck in traffic it had to be today. I still needed to get home and start on the desserts. After two weeks of planning a sensational menu, taking meticulous notes, going through the shopping list countless times, I’d forgotten the most important ingredient, icing. I’m normally very calm and collected but for some reason since I’d woken up this morning I had this horrible knot in my tummy. My husband and I were meeting the girl our son, Jai, was wishing to spend the rest of his life with. After a year of courtship he’d finally come to us to declare his love and wishes to marry the girl. We’d decided it’d be best if both families met and took it from there and they were coming today!  The knucklehead in front of me was beeping his horn for probably the tenth time in the last ten minutes with no avail. After switching on the radio to traffic news this 10 mile traffic jam made sense. There had been a two car accident up ahead,...
