The journey I will definitely miss...

I was convinced that I am the greatest daughter and you are the best father we had for each other. You are no longer with me now…

At this point of my life, I realized that I really love you. I regretfully acknowledged that I have taken you for granted. Because I know, I don’t have to work hard to make you love me because I am your daughter. Your only daughter. Thank you for making me the person I am today.

I wish you knew how much you meant to me. I wish you realized that the last seven days we were together were the most special moments in our life. Allow me to mourn your loss. Struggling to accept the fact and to believe that you are no longer here with me. There is a part of me resenting myself for not to comprehend your needs, for not be able to know you deeply. But I know that it’s meant to be this way, it’s destined to be like this. It’s the reality I have to accept.
  
I wouldn’t be able to shower you with worldly luxuries anymore, I wouldn’t be able to share with you anything anymore, but one thing I’m sure is you’re always in my heart and I will make sure you will be poured with my sincere prayer for your eternal happiness.

I grieve your loss, I miss your presence, I love you gazillions, but Allah loves you more.

Strong Little Soul {Tribute to all unprivileged children whose childhood being affected by humanitarian crisis}



You still can draw a smile as though you have all the happiness
What can I search within me
You still can laugh as though you never suffer and grieve
What can I learn from you little soul

Yet you’re smiling as though life is so perfectly beautiful
How can I be like you little soul
Yet you’re smiling as though being denied is blessed
How can I be alright when ignored
Yet you’re smiling as though starving is an option
How can I waste my blessed food
Yet you’re smiling through the rubble of shelter
How can I not be grateful for a house that I have

Your smile makes it looks easy to trail the path
Would I learn anything from you little soul
Your smile melts the heart
Would I able to touch the bliss

Little soul of pure dignity
Leave the fate to Allah’s hand
Pleased and happy with the provisions of Allah the Exalted

Tears welling up my eyes
Everytime I think about those little soul perilous journey of life  
I’m nowhere near your strength but I pray Allah grants me well

Why can't we live in peace?



This question struck my mind. Why can't we live in peace?

Why can't we live in peace, so that Rohingyan no need to flee from their homeland.

Why can't we live in peace, so that Palestine would have their country to themselves.

Why can't we live in peace, so that no human being been deprived of their rights to get basic needs, education, freedom.

Why can't we live in peace, so that all efforts made to seal the peace pact could be channelled to create value to life.

Why can't we live in peace? 

Aren't they tired of being greedy?

Aren't they tired of fighting?

Life…a roller coaster ride



Now and then I feel I’m in the deepest ravine of darkness
Now and again I feel I’m at the highest peak of happiness

Every now and then I endure the pain
Every so often I enjoy every gain

There are times I feel scared
There are also times I feel relaxed

Those are matters life has to offer
Whose hearts with courage will stand stronger
