هِدُوءَهُ، أَينَ الهِدُوءُ بِشَطِّنَا

أَينَ المَسِيرُ إِذَا أَتَينَا سَاعَةً،

كَي نَستَعِيدَ الذِكرَيَاتِ لِرُوحِنَا

هَلْ يَلتَقِي مِنَّا الخَيَالُ فَنَهتَدِي،

نَحوَ التِئَامِ جَرَاحِنَا وَفُؤَادِنَا

أَينَ السَّبِيلُ إِلَى انتِهَاءِ وَجِيعَةٍ،

تُطفِي لَهِيبَ الشَّوقِ مِن أَعمَاقِنَا

وَتَزُورُنِي بَعدَ الشَّدَائِدِ هَدأَةً،

تُرضِي الفُؤَادَ وَلَا يَثُورُ حَنِينُنَا

وَرسَائِلُ الأَشوَاقِ تَبقَى حَيثُمَا،

كَانَت رِيَاحُ الذِكرَيَاتِ تَجِيئُنَا

أَينَ الَّذِي يَرضَى الفِرَاقَ وَمَا بِهِ ،

مِن وَطأَةٍ لِلرُوحِ تَقصِمُ ظَهرَنَا

أَينَ انكِسَارُ المَوجِ بَعدَ هَيَاجِهِ

أَينَ انقِطَاعُ المَدِّ بَعدَ شَقَائِنَا

Assalamualaikum. Please do whatever you can about this.

The other day my children and I were driving, and we saw an unhoused man. He had on multiple layers of clothes, he was pushing a shopping cart and carrying a lot of bags. I was vibing out to my music, but I happened to hear my children talking about the man; and to be honest they weren’t saying anything too crazy about him. However, I was annoyed with them. So, I cut them off and reminded them…

   If I have three magic genie wishes, my first wish would be for everyone on Earth to embrace love. Imagine what it would feel like to wake up in a world where no one had to suffer from loneliness or despair. A world where love is the guiding principle in every interaction and decision. Imagine a globe where every human genuinely loves one another. Just think about it for a moment. Love isn’t…

Hey there, lovely humans! It’s Tina here—your friendly neighborhood girl trying to navigate this wild, unpredictable ride called life. Today, I want to share something that’s been on my mind lately—a little experiment I did, just to see who’s really got my back when the chips are down. Spoiler alert: it’s a lot more complicated than I thought. So, I did another one of my experiments—yep, I’m…

I was visiting family last week with my eldest, since she and I both had breaks from our usual daily responsibilities and neither of us had seen visited this family in awhile. Overall it was a peaceful, relaxing visit, but as I waited for our plane to get to the gate, I realized that there was another theme throughout the visit – the sharing of stories. Revisiting memories has always been an…

What makes a good leader?
