The hyderabadi answer to “sh*t _______ say”
if you understand urdu, you need to watch this, <3
~ a reason to live.
the only reason necessary.
[[I’ve got mail! Literally.]]
Growing up, I used to envy the letters, packages, gifts my parents and older siblings used to get. It always used to make me want to grow up enough to start receiving my own packages. However, with life now being filled with the cyber medium, my wishes seldom come true. All
I ever get in the mail are bills ;P.
The few times I have gotten something in the mail, I rush to open the contents, no matter what it is.
Today, ironically, I received mail!
With my heart doing a crazy little beat, I swiftly opened it to see a sweatshirt from one of the most sweetest people I have had the opportunity to meet.
Although we met less than 4 months ago, we’re officially in the gift phase.
~ and what an amazing gift. If I was destined to “celebrate” Valentine’s day today, I’m glad it is to celebrate my love for the Alhulbayt; it is also a great reminder to myself, that if I will ever choose to wait for anyone, let it only be for Imam Al-Mahdi (ajft)!
<happy sigh>
[[When all you do is pray]]
Today is 14th February..
Wait, don’t stop reading, for I am not going to complain about my love life, but rather the love people lack for other humans. Precisely a year ago, in Bahrain, the first peaceful protest occurred during the Arab Spring Revolution. A year is relatively a short time for change, but after many deaths, many injuries, many unfulfilled opportunities the hope has not died. Walking perhaps towards their martyrdom, thousands chose and continue to choose to be the change.
Despite the constant belittlement of their actions, for “Bahrain has one of the best Arab economy”, Shias in Bahrain want acknowledgement, they want equality, and they want freedom from oppressive tyrants.
As someone so far away I feel so helpless. I wish I had a bigger part, I wish I could do something. All I do is pray. I hope this is enough…for now.
