Oh Allah, I thank you for the ability to be patient in my circumstance 
when others are unconcerned
Oh Allah, I thank you for the wisdom to know better
when others show thoughtlessness
Oh Allah, I thank you for the little disabilities 
which help me to understand others' inabilities
Oh Allah, I thank you for the small heartaches
when compared to others' greater disappointments
Oh Allah, I thank you for the courage to persevere
when others' make things more difficult
Oh Allah, I thank you for supporting me
when others' have let me go
Oh Allah, I thank you for the umbrella which shelters me from the rains
when others' don't care how wet I get
Oh Allah, I thank you for the use of one leg even when the other gets tired each day I go up many stairs
and others' only ask me if I am alright
Oh Allah, I thank you for revealing secrets so I know better next time 
when others' promises are broken
Oh Allah, I thank you for hard times which increase me with knowledge 
To survive every day
Oh Allah, I thank you for the tools and knowledge which I use each day
Oh Allah, for every good there is an "un-good"
Oh Allah, for every positive there is a negative
Oh Allah, for every yin there is a yang
Make me balanced in and out of my day and night,
Through my life;
In my future that I shall become
The balanced person equipped with strength, knowledge, wisdom, courage and fortitude to be a role model for those less fortunate than myself
For the sake of unconditional love for humankind.

Ramadan 24, 1438H

Assalamualaikum warahmahtullahi wabarakatuh. Assalatu wasalam ala sayyidina Muhanmmad was ala alih.  Bulan Ramadhan yang sempurna sudah mau berakhir. Ummat menjemput kedatangan malam Laylatul Qadr: sebuah malam yang disebutkan yang lebih berkah dan punya pahala yang berlebih2an; pahala berganda ; malam dimana malaikat Jibril dan semua malaikat2 lain menurun ke Bumi untuk melihatkan manusia dan mendoakkan kita. Ini ialah kepercayaan ; iman dan deen seorang muslim / mukmin. Dengan kesadaran ini kita punya harapan. Dengan harapan kita inshaallah meningkatkan keimanan. Allah zal Jalalu tidak pernah mau melimpahkan kepada manusia sesuatu, selain rasa kasih cinta; sebab itu muslim2 seluruh dunia merasa ketenangan bulan mulia ini. Kalau memang ada di tempat2, yang dalam bulan Ramadhan yang tidak nyaman , masih berperang ; artinya mereka sendiri menjauhi diri mereka daripada kegembiraan yang Allah Subhana Wa Ta'ala hendak memberikan.

Aims

Although I am afraid Although I may feel weak Although destiny has been written  Nothing prepares for it’s trials  Although I may have knowledge  Although I may be courageous  Although I have my principles  Nothing but faith can lift me Although  I dread what future holds  Although life’s path is blurred Although my aim is apparent  Nothing but my self can take this road  So,  when this path is trodden Slowly will I venture  The care and caution I will use  In time I will be beholden  To experience which age has brought That will guide me towards my haven  ~lorrainenur@2018 Seems inspirations are starting once more. How I have missed it’s presence. 🌹
