....Maze!
The Big City leaps forward...
never waiting for the slow travellers..
Truth isn't a word here..
It's all money,lust,brands & fame!!
For a person who stands against all this
is indeed termed an 'outcast'
Why should we always go with the flow?
Why should we dance to others tunes?
Why cant we make our own music??
She started seeing the fake face of the Metro from the auto driver,who greeted her at the Railway Station, charging her hundreds of rupees extra,by taking the longest route possible!
Then in the form of the landlord where she rented out a place,who doesn't bother if a tenant is screeching with pain or not ,but indeed needs the payment,within the exact day!A day later would mean extra fine.
She saw the ugly face of fake friendship in the plan of a room mate who tried to get emotionally attached to her,yet she dint realize that she was being utilized ,day in & day out-of money,of books ,of 'time' and was the target of a greater ' devious' intent.
Then in the form of fellow hostelite,who cut her vein to profess her undying love for her boyfriend.Does the blood split strengthen relationships!?! Rather doesn't it show an underlying insecure relationship?
The fake feeling rebounded all around her!In the way of 'vegetable seller' who sold everything for Rs.5 extra from the norm!
She was shocked by the friend,who glared at her with green eyes, every time she got professionally awarded or recognized!
In the style of the Receptionist at College,who charged her under the table for every certificate that had to be signed by a Higher Authority.
Yet....

She loved the big city!
For it's zest and zeal...
For its multi ethnic crowd...
For its breezy mornings..
For its beautiful evenings...
For its mild winter showers...
For its beautiful gardens!!

Calls to The One Above!
Quest for knowledge,that is beneficial
in this wold & in the Hereafter Akhira
Quest for greater Iman & Ihsan
Quest for the meaning of my life
Quest for my purpose
Quest for stability and strength
Quest for love
Quest for joy & happiness
Oh Allah,when adversity strikes me
Help me remember that YOU donot burden
a soul beyond that which it cannot bear
& to believe wholeheartedly,'Tawakkalthul Ala-lla"
Oh Allah,when You bless me with
personal & professional success
Help me stand firmly on the ground
and to say 'Alhamdulilah' always
Oh Allah,when the shimmering lights
of 'Dunya' glare me away from You
Help me recall that this indeed is ephemeral
and that I am just a traveler here
Oh Allah,everyday when I learn
about the Human Body
Help me retrospect on Your Power
and the Powerless beings,we are
Oh Allah,when I am surrounded
with the people I love-family & friends
Help me 'call to mind' that
I am Blessed,surely
Oh Allah ,increase my Taqwa
Help me be closer to YOU
Associate me with people who will
guide me in the Right Path

.....Spotless Days! :)
- monthly tests,term exams and finals were like the end of the world
- an A+ placed you on top of the world
- every festival meant the entire family would be around to celebrate
- shopping for Eid was a family event
- school was a place, loved and hated to go
- you waited for the lift bell to go 'ting' and then the'juggling of the key' sound ,outside home signifying that dad is coming back from work and he most often would have a chocolate to brighten up your day
- you wear the new dress & U go to Daddy and he says, ' U are looking absolutely amazing!' & u feel on top of the world,again
- Tuesdays were a much awaited day coz Young Times came on Tuesday.
- the entire family comes for 'Honor's Roll' function at school & U were one of the recipient & yet again u feel on top of the world
- weekends meant ,going to Wakrah,to meet Aunt ,Uncle,Molutty,Samu and Salu
- going to school on thursday was a happy event,coz Dad would come to pick up from school and U go could go back in the AC car (compared to the rickety bus in the hot sun) and he would often have goodies in the car
- friendship meant wearing the same 'heart-shaped' pendant
- buying a new set of 'Faber Castell' color pencils gave the sense-of-ownership-of-literal -treasure
- 'Heidi' was the most favourite cartoon
- getting the 'class-leader' badge was a thing of 'honour' indeed
- Summer vacation was eagerly awaited so as to get back to India for hols and meet all the extended relatives,cousins and family
- 2 new pair of dress was absolutely necessary before going for hols,one to wear while going & other while coming back & Mom would say,'it's as though the pilot wont allow U in flite widout a new dress!'
.....a TIME of carefree days,innocence and love!!
Till Next,
Fly High! :)
