Finding Self......


Being the only female from the family to take out steps from home for education and career had already put so much responsibilities and limitations on me....
Being tied in the unwanted knot was more hurtful....
Took decisions that made the family doubt on me and my intentions...
Followed my dreams of being independent and clever enough to not rely on any person...
I failed, I tried again but I never left the path....
I do not know how this courage took place in my heart...
But this made me the strongest person...
In last few days, I faced a cruel side of life, more cruel than before...
No-body knows what I am suffering from...
Family, friends, even the soul mates are un-aware...
This time is really crucial for me to know myslef..
I am discovering that, there are times when you alone will be walking and no-body will be able to give you company...
There are times when your parents, siblings, and the loved ones will not know your inner feelings, the feelings in the depths of despair...
There are times when you will be crying alone but you will not need anyone anymore....
I am finding my various sides, one side is so much strong that hides the despair in smile,,,the other side is so weak that cry’s out loud lonely....there is one side that does not want to move on....there is one side that wants to forget everything.....there is one side that thinks the bravest decision is made now....there is one side that thinks the life is over now,,,,
In all these mixed feelings I am finding a new self....
I feel my few questions are being answered...
Nobody but myself is helping in it....


The bond between me and my God........


So many times I got angry at my destiny
So many times I clung to my wishes that I never spoke of anything else.
Thousands of times I claimed my fate for the worse that happened.

I am amazed to see my diverse feelings at various stages of life.

I got distanced with God for couple of months in 2019. Leaving prayers, disbelieving in Dua, not following rules or ethics of religion. I had so much anger that I left the path that my ancestors have taken for centuries. I wanted not be one by choice. Then I observed in me unacceptable behaviors like rudeness, harshness, disobeydance, anger and many mixed feelings that made me away from the soul and the creature of that soul.

I was never the person that I had become at that time. I blamed everything on others and told myself that I am the victim, had survived from worse. I wished that if God would have listened my wishes and duas then present would not have been so much difficult.

Then suddenly a time came when it truly happened, my biggest wish happened to come true. I was flying in the sky. I slowly returned to my regular prayers, again believing in duas, obeying the rules (some). This was normal for me because I thought things are always predestined.

I wonder why we human beings blame everything to God and destiny and let themselves free?

Well a few months later after my wish came true, I witnessed a kind of proud in my behavior. I was surprised, I was not that one, and I never wanted to be. This was the time when I consciously thought of my intensions. I started concentrating on my intensions that were they fine or they are evil.
Then again I concentrated on my prayer and meditations, with a strong belief that I would be changed, I would be again humble and down to earth. That was achievable and I did.

But in near past something worst happened, and this time my feelings are changed. I have started spending more time in prayers and meditations, this helped me to find out myself. The journey through which many people travel, has to be traveled by me too. I believe that, God is beside me, no matter if even my parents and family members do not know about it. There I take a sigh of relief and my conscience is relaxed that whatever happened to me is because of me, no any external force is blamable here.

We human beings are very contradictory in nature, we love to be successful and that credit is all ours, but a single failure is always blamed to be God's wish. We get angry at God when things do not happen according to our will, but we never give credit of our happiness to God. Something that is good is always human's will, something that has negative effect is always a curse/trial by God. 

These kind of feelings are natural but we can control them by asking ourselves that where we did mistake that lead us to the misery? Where we did not give enough efforts that did not lead us to success? What was the wrong decision that we made in rush that put us in difficult situation? 
These questions can save us from blaming God or any other external force. 
God never wants his humans to suffer, he loves 70 times more than a mother, then how come a mother can want her children to suffer?

This is what I have understood and that have made me consciously aware of the decisions that were wrong, that miss-guided me, that rose disturbance and restlessness. 

I believe, humans get what they do or give efforts for. God never is the source of hurdles, He might think better for us but not less. 

I am full of repentance, I am full of hopes too. Many a times human needs to fall to see what their original place was, where they came from, what their value was then and how they have come to achieve whatever they have now. This kind of practice will always make them grateful, they will never curse their destiny. 
Few bad experiences teach the most, and that is why I feel those bad experiences made me close to God. I feel He is listening to my cry’s, I feel He is surely with me every single second, I feel He is looking after me when no-one knows what I am feeling or suffering from, I feel comfortable in the most uncomfortable feelings of despair. 

My trust in God is making my bond strongest with HIM. I feel the blessings are up on me and on every human, we must be grateful for that.

World is same every where


World-7 billion people living in it, is same everywhere for you.
You change places, you change your company of people.
But the ultimate of human nature is yet same throughout..
The desire for material things...
The hope for better being....
The lust for fame....
The need for change....
All these aspects of humans are never gonna be old fashioned....
Either I or you are all same...
With a bit of denial or acceptance.....
You love when you are being admired...
You feel good when you are being liked....
You have energy when you are being celebrated...
You strongly believe in yourself when you are given the lead
You treat your success as a victory...
You consider others mistakes as misery...
You do things according to your will...
You feel disrespectful if anyone else does this...
You say you are different from others...
But you have the same egoistic behavior...
This is how I am...this is how you are....
No matter where I and you live....
No matter what I and you believe...
I have found world same in a small village, as same in cities...

Poetry by Akash Ansari

اسين بس رهياسين اڌورا اڌورا
‘‘آڪاش انصاري’’

نه ڪي عشق آتش فشان ٿي اڀاميو
نه ئي ديپ دل مان اوهان جو اجھامو
نه سورن جي شدت کان شولو بڻياسين
نه سگريٽ جو ڪو ڦلو ٿي ڇڻياسين
دکاسين، جلياسين اڌورا اڌورا
اسين بس رهياسين اڌورا اڌورا

ڦاهي جا فندا چمڻ کان به وياسين
۽ دنيا جا ڌندا ڪرڻ کان به وياسين
نه تون ئي ملين ۽ نه ڪنهن جا ٿياسين
هتان کان به وياسين، اتان کان به وياسين
مرڻ جي مزي کان به محروم ٿياسين
۽ جيئندا رهياسين اڌورا اڌورا
اسين بس رهاسين اڌورا اڌورا

دکن سان به دل پنهنجو رشتو نه ٺاهيو
سکن ۾ به من کي سڪون ڪو نه آيو
کلياسين ته خلقت جي دردن ٿي روڪيو
رناسين ته دنيا جي نظرن ٿي ٽوڪيو
نه خوش ٿي کلياسين نه رنج ٿي رناسين
رُناسين، کلياسين اڌورا اڌورا
اسين بس رهاسين اڌورا اڌورا

طارق ٿي دنيا تياڳي سگھياسين
جهان جو به جھنجھٽ نه جھاڳي سگھياسين
عمر اڌ اڻ کُٽُ عبادت ۾ وئي
۽ باقي بُتن کان بغاوت ۾ وئي
خدا به نه مليو نه ان جي خدائي
اي آڪاش جندڙي ايئن وئي اجائي
۽ ڳولها جي رڻ ۾ رلياسين اڌورا
.......اسين بس رهاسين اڌورا اڌورا
