Not affected

People always comment my height, and lately it’s getting on my nerves. Why do people give me their opinion about my height? It’s really annoying! I am a tall girl, one could say, but that doesn’t mean that I want to be shorter, know what I mean? Today at school, some girls felt sorry for me, because I’m tall. Ridiculous, is the only word I could use to describe that scenario. I am content with my body, and I think everyone else should be to. We are all created differently, and are all beautiful in our own way.

My height, always on your lips

You always comment and tell me your little tips

Telling me that I’m either to tall or to skinny

but I am truly I Content In this body

You try to bring me down

But you end up looking like a clown

This girl right here

Loves to be tall, and will adhere

Not interested in your opinions

Cause they’re toxic like scorpions

Luckily I am immune

Because I have opinions too!

And they mean more to me

More than you could ever see!

The Sahara Desert

Ever since I can remember I have always wanted to see and “touch” the desert. Just imagine the massive sandblocks everywhere! It’s like a giant sandpit. I'm so fascinated by deserts and every time I see a picture of a desert, I feel inspired and excited. In a book called The Alchemist, the author Paulo Cahelo describes the desert like an old wise lady. And ever since i've read the book, I have always considered the desert as an “old wise lady”. There’s something so magical about the desert. It’s like it’s filled with secrets ready to be explored. Most people I talk to are very sceptical by the thought of traveling to the Sahara. Their response is always something like; “ Ehh... Why would I go there of all the places in the world? I will probably just get bitten by a scorpion or something”. That sounds so ignorant if you ask me. It's one of the world most fascinating places, in my opinion.

I hope that one day InshaAllah, I will get the opportunity to travel to the Sahara desert.

Will I Make it?

For a long time now I have been writing poems to let whatever feeling in me out. I know it sounds kind of crazy, but these poems mean so much to me. So I think I will be sharing one of my poems with the world to night..haha…if somebody even knows about this blog…but lets not go there. I hope this particular poem may have some affect on someone, it is a very uplifting spirit poem. Whenever I meet negative people that tell me I CAN*T do what I want to, I read this poem to myself…weird I know..But then again what is normal?

Here's the poem ;)

I look up to the sky
And wonder why
People’s sayings matter to me
Leaves turning yellow
And I feel so damn mellow
Why do I care?
I am me, and me is wonderful
I shall make myself rise up to the sky
And when I reach the top
And will stay there and fly around forever
And peoples saying will no longer matter.
People only want what’s bad for me
But it is me, who’s going to show them
How hard I work and with the help of Allah Subhana Wa Tala
I am capable of achieving anything
So just stop your sayings
It doesn’t matter to me
I am strong and you can never take my hopes and dreams away just because you want it for yourself
I am strong
I am determinated
I am ME.

Thought Alarm

A couple a days ago, I came across this video on YouTube. It is a nasheed about death, in Arabic but with English subtitles. It really puts things in perspective (well, at least it did for me)...We’re so caught up with our daily lives all the time, that we sometimes forget what the REAL purpose for us being on this earth is...I mean what is our education or job going to do for us when we’re dead? We’re so caught up with making money all the time, when in fact we should be more concerned about our prayers. I deeply recommend everyone to watch this video, and I hope it will be beneficial :)

Here is the link to the video;

Randomness

Just made this blog..i don't really know what i will use this blog too, but i think this is a really good way to keep my thoughts clear..know what i mean?

Life is complicated and challenging. But lets keep in mind that Allah (swt) is with is us with every breath we take, every step we make and every second that passes by. Let's try to just leave things to Allah and put our trust in him.
