SPREAD the LOVE







Sometimes, a wave of senseless depression hits you out of no-where. A song, a scene in a movie can trigger your emotions and suddenly silly tears are dancing in your eyes for no reason.


Yesterday, when I was just about to be sucked in in one of these occasional emotional roller coasters, my mobile beeped declaring an incocming bb msg.


It was a sweet msg from a sweet friend whom I haven't seen in a long while. Saying stuff that made no sense really but it oozed love and affection. And suddenly, I felt rejuvenated. I was smiling while a shy red glow warmed my cheeks. I tell you in a flip second, my mood completely changed, and the day became instantly better :)


الكلمة الطيبة صدقة


So I ask you all now, to take out your mobile, and send sweet nothings to ppl around you. NO BROADCASTS PLS. Just simple sincere words. It could mean the world to someone ;*

In-between




Ko7 Ko7 Ko7 ..
Ghbaar ghbaaar...
:D


Maskeen bloggy mn ziman 3annah. I 've been travelling and haven't stayed much in Kuwait after Ramadan. Life is steering us in this unexpected direction where there are alot of cross roads, and all u can do is el-estikhara, choose one and go through with it and praying it was the right path.

Oh and Taiba,
Thank you sweetheart for your email.
You are THE BEST :*

For lack of inspiration, I thought i would share this with you all. I received an email more than a month ago, and quite franly I was disgusted. 7aram the girl who sent it to me wanted some help but my tongue was tied and my heart was heavy with the weight of her problem that I didn't know what to say.

I couldn't publish it then, because it was just the first week of Ramadan and i felt if I did, I would disgrace the spiritual nature of this holy month.

Anyway, here goes:




hiii glitterr... shu a5barek?
hows ramadhan treatin u so far? lol i dnt feel it here e9ara7a.

Maby a6awel 3laich, bs i need some advice bs msh 7aggi.. for my friend. im trying my best to help her bs she's not making things easy for me.. fa madri walla.

see, my friend S, who comes from a very strict shia family unfortunatley fell in love with A, a sunni. A is also my cozin, tara he introduced me to S and we become really good friends after that.

Anyways, their relationship started when she was 15 ou ohwa 18, online, bs soon online turned to txtin then to calls n then to meeting up and eventually they fell in love.

They dated for 7 yrs, breaks ups happened fnu9, bs they always always returned back 2 each other. They made a very very sweet couple. Their love was something u would see in movies. they never let the shia sunna thing come in between them. He wud support her beliefs, and she his.

It wasnt long b4 proposals started coming S's way and she wud keep refusing, bs there was a specific guy her parents wanted her to say yes to, someone from a good family and a close cloooseee family friend, her mom was like ull embarres us etha gelti la2... So S out of anger just told her enah she was seeing a guy. That alone was a huge sin in the parents eyes ou the fact that he was a sunni good they didnt get a heartattack.. El mhm her father beat her wayed, took her car keys, phone, laptop away from her. She wasnt allowed to leave the house '3air weya her bro or parents.. Naturally A was trying to get in touch with her ou ma kan gadr cuz he didnt know what had happened fa he called me, i found out ou getlteh and he was soo upset!! he cudnt believe enah he was the reason for all this, and he didnt want to see her suffer.

For a while i became their messeneger until shway shway S's situation at home became better and she got a chance to speak 2 him. he broke up weyaha, gaal enah maleh daa3i u go thru this weya ahlch, and its not going to work.

I saw A everyday ou sheft enah he was like really really upset, and she wasnt willing to move on. she wud call and txt him bs he wudnt reply back thinking that wud help. And when that didnt help he just went ahead and marrid someone else.

3ad u can imagine 7allet S, she went into depression for a while, and then like 6 mnths later she was like 7atta ana ill just say yes to the guy, and she did.
fa they both got married.

Al7een the prob isnt this :P the above was bs el introductin...
After S got married, by like 9 mnths wela shay, we were sitting in a coffee shop ana ou heya and out of nowhere she's like i miss him.. can i call him? is it ok for me to call him?. ofcourse i tried talking her out of it, but S is S, wayed 3needa.. she went ahead and called anyways.. i dnt knw if his hello, wela the fact that he said her name, or just cuz she heard his voice,, bs as soon as he answered the S started crying like baby. Her next line wasnt i miss u, wela how are u, wela how is ur life, wela ur happy.. Seeda she's like i wanna see u!!

I screamed NO, and if A heard it then im guessing he chose to ignore it becuz the next thing S said was the "parking lot of Hayat". She closed the phone, got up, and left.

Its been 2 yrs now, and they're still meeting up!
Its hard to reason weya S, cuz her husband isnt the affectionate type, plus he's never around.. always on business trips or meeting... but A's wife is adorable wayed wayed 7booba... i think i can knock some sense into him.. bs u knw he's the type of guy etha ur saying something correct, he wud lsn 3dl bs as soon as u say something that he finds hard to believe.. he'll lose interest and ask u to stay out of his life.

and i told them etha they wanna do this, then why dnt they get a divorce and just get married to each other. bs they're like la its not gonna work ou its easier this way.
Now S is pregnant... ou a7la shay she's like "im pretty sure the father is my husband"
PRETTY SURE!!!!!!
not sure.. pretty sure.

I didnt know they had even reached to this extent.. and i dnt knw waht to do anymore..
shud i just give up wela u think there is a way? I can't just stay still and watch this happen around me now can I ???


Any advice?
