Salams, Eid greetings and Hi! In a way, celebrating Eid with family and friends is also a way of taking a break. Somehow, when you attach ‘fun and smiles’ to any ‘work’ then it automatically becomes fun and relaxing. Yes, there is some ‘work’ involved with Eid-ul-Azha, as all Muslims know. Lots to do. It …
Eid Mubarak Everyone! Ramzan and Eid is over now. In spite of everything, and the sad fact that mosques were almost closed, quite surprisingly, it still was a good Ramzan. It was free of all distractions like the iftar parties and lots of shopping trips for Eid . We realized for the first time, that …
Assalam-o-Alaikum, Everyone! This post is dedicated to each of you, who read my blog posts, and follow me on Instagram and Facebook.

I’m like that. I mean, quite a lot. What about you? Are you the same too?

Assalam o Alaikum to you all! We are half way through Ramzan, the month of fasting for Muslims. Here in Islamabad it is from around 3.30 am till 7.07 pm. So it is 15.5 hours. I know it is up to eighteen hours in other parts of the world, like in Seattle. Surprisingly, It has …
All of us go through times when we feel we are stuck in an ‘impossible’ situation. It feels like a dead-end in life. You need someone to talk to. Someone, who is not judgmental. Who will listen to you with empathy, and offer the best solution. With time, I’ve gathered mentors in every field of …
Self-talk is a way of controlling your own thought processes. To find ways to use your thoughts positively to protect you, instead of harming yourself. It is a vital process in self improvement, and for success in any matter.
