صبر - شکر - ایمان

Everything else needs to stop.
It’s my time to hold, breathe, nurture.
On purpose…
Refusing to take this quietness for granted.
It reveals itself, accompanying my attention in silence.

صبر - شکر - ایمان

It’s gonna be alright…
They tell me that in few words, remind me of my purpose - they’re faithful, lovers, caregivers, believers. They never abandon - it’s my blood.

There’s something irreplaceable, something special that my heart holds for my loved ones - those who are away, physically… yet their vibrations are so strong that even being far from each other - we know of each others hearts.

I admit, it’s almost impossible for one to replace and forget the tenderness we fostered while we had nothing but each other, true old friends, true brothers… I live by the power you send thru calls, messages and sometimes dreams! My brothers I live to see you all soon again, in one place.

قوالیاں نال چاے - بس رہن دے مینوں یاراں جوگا…

There’s something in the water here, I don’t know what it is? I do sense it though, whatever it is, it lingers in the name of fear, shit is contagious.

Doesn’t it feel like a dream already?

To me, it does…
A dream that manifests itself, whenever it desires. A dream to hold space in the name of love, empathy, togetherness, tolerance, acceptance, compassion.

You all turned our home into this utopian promise - worshipping peace in the face of chaos outside & inside our environment. You all adorn SAMAA سماع with peace, love and kindness - it feels like that it’s almost a necessity to take time from our hectic / heavy days to heal in togetherness, to strengthen ourselves with light we all possess.
It is a dream, our dream… you all bless this dream with life. We’re forever grateful.

I look inside myself; everything that I ever wanted, I am already that…
Or is that YOU? It must be you الحمدللہ, weaved into my very own soul. It must to be you, I see no image of my own as my eyes close when I look inside myself.

﷽

That’s how you appeared today.

Spoke to a loved one on the phone back home - I asked him how he was? he told me he missed me… told me he remembers my laughters - 3am over Anda Paratha انڈہ پراٹھا, Qawwali, and Chai. He reminded me of my simple self, so..

That’s how you appeared today.
