it’s just so incredible to me how people’s souls are so distinct and so specific. everyone has their own energy and it’s very particular and there is such a huuuuge variety of people in the world….there are all sorts of interactions, all sorts of connections, all sorts of reactions. you’re touched by so many souls and it’s all very valuable. there are people who heal you. there are people who click so well, just right. there are people who make you feel like you’re on fire. sometime you’ll be met with disdain. sometimes people will not be able to see you. sometimes people will be intimidated by you and you’ll feel bad about it. and then someone will show and they won’t look at you that way. they’d be so laid-back and cheerful and you’d know they are incapable of misunderstanding you or judging you. because your souls just get each other. because they bear a certain lightness of being. and your whole world will change - just upon being touched by a soul. wow. i swear this is real.
i enjoy all sorts of people and they’re infinitely interesting to me but also…there are those special someones that i will never forget encountering. some connections truly change you forever. or more like they make you expand more into yourself? it’s like people are always the same. their souls - they are distinct and specific like i said. that’s one thing i really love about people - they just are who they are. i used to hate it, i used to pretend it’s not true, it used to make me rage. but at the end of the day people are just who they are. and this is not a limiting belief, mind you. some people see it as setting limitations, putting them in a cage. but being who you are doesn’t exclude growth; quite the contrary, it requires growth. i feel like it all depends on what we feed ourselves (or what we’re being fed). love helps us expand, fear helps us restrict. both can be useful and can be a part of the process of growth. growth is not just expansion. after all, we are all shapes and colours and these things require a limitation. how can you have a shape if it’s endless, without borders?
anyway. i was thinking about how i met my best friend. i mean we didn’t get close the first time i landed eyes on him but there was still this strange feeling taking over me. and when we actually had the chance to share more than a few words, i….i was saved. like, his soul, it instantly reached out for mine with such beautiful, entrancing ease. i felt comfortable and i never, ever felt comfortable. i felt normal. i felt like i’m not scary or weird. this warmth of his, this kindness…i will never forget this to my dying day and probably beyond that. we often talked about the beginning of our friendship and how we felt back then and i know he felt the same way, i know we saved each other. idk. i’ll never get over this. i’ll never get over his soul and our connection.
and i’m so very thankful for all those connections i’ve had. like. souls. souls exist to be touched.

“kids these days are always on their phones, kids these days never go outside” ok how about kids these days have less freedom of movement & access to public spaces than any previous generation, forcing them indoors, forcing them to rely on electronics, when many would prefer to be outdoors hanging out with friends

There I was again tonight forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place
Walls of insincerity
Shifting eyes and vacancy vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you
Your eyes whispered "have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette starts to make it's way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks, like passing notes in secrecy
And it was enchanting to meet you
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonder struck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
The lingering question kept me up
Two a.m., who do you love?
I wonder till I'm wide awake
Now I'm pacing back and forth, wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say, hey
It was enchanting to meet you
All I know is I was, enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonder struck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonder struck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
This is me praying that this was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name, until I see you again
These are the words I held back, as I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonder struck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonder struck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you

To whoever is going through a tough time recovering from an unhealthy relationship:
1. Don’t doubt what you did. It’s easy to think, “I’ve made a terrible mistake!” About your separation/divorce, but you did it for a reason. You choose your own sanity and happiness.
2. It’s okay to be sad. Allow yourself a good cry if you need it, or several. Pour your heart out to Allah (God) in supplication. Cry to your family and friends it’s okay to not be okay for a while. (It doesn’t make you less of a man or woman to express your feelings... in fact it’s healthy).
3. Stay out of contact. You might be tempted to call or text them, just to check in. Resist the temptation and try being alone for a while. Remember it’s better to be single than in a toxic/abusive relationship.
4. Love yourself. What happened has happened. You can’t go back and stop yourself from marrying them, nor can you go back and try to change them. You can move on from this.
5. Remembrance of Allah (God) is not only a safe haven from the problems and worries of this world, but it is also the short and easy path to achieving ultimate success.
When you remember Allah(God), clouds of worry and fear are driven away, and the mountains that make up your problems are blown away.
“Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest.”
(Qur’an 13: 28)
To the degree that you remember Allah (God), your heart will be calm and cheerful. His remembrance carries with it the meaning of total dependence upon Him, of turning to Him for aid, of having good thoughts about Him, and of waiting for victory from Him. Truly, He is near when supplicated: He hears when He is called and He answers when He is invoked, so humble yourself before Him and ask of Him sincerely. Repeat His beautiful blessed names, and mention Him as being alone worthy of worship. Mention His praises, supplicate to Him, and ask forgiveness, healing and tranquility from Him: you will then find – by the will of Allah (God)- happiness, peace, and illumination.
“So Allah (God) gave them the reward of this world and the excellent reward of the Hereafter” (Quran 3: 148)
-Qasim Rafique
