When I began writing this blog I “hoped” to write regularly. But time and life left my hopes hopeless. Kismet had a gift for me, which I was allowed to receive only on another land. Compensations for a prayer.
… lands changed and hearts changed… fears changed and dreams changed… life changed and blessings changed…
I ended last year, fearing “the soul-collector” but here I am, with the grace of Allah, beginning the new year with new hopes and dreams. Through it all I was reminded of the old cemeteries that I have enjoyed visiting in the past.
In matters of “light and darkness” one cannot help but think of cemeteries… After all it wasn’t only the carved coral tomb stones and mausoleums that fascinated me. The subtle battles between “life and death” that goes on in there, intrigues me as well.
I am sorry to have spoken in riddles. But all the words sums upto one sentence; “Here I am… once again!”
Today I begin a new journey – until I am halted again – hoping to continue my “laafenn kurun”. Thank you all, for your support and kind words. May you all have a blessed year ahead. And don’t forget to keep your smiles alive.
