Forgive him who wrongs you;

join him who cuts you off;

do good to him who does evil to you;

and speak the truth even if it be against yourself.

- Inscribed on the Prophet (SAW) sword

kindness

Dear Freiends

It is said that kindness is the greatest Wisdom,
And here`s a story to know how a single kind word travels..

Drop a PEEBLE in the water: just a splash, and it is gone;
But there's half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on and on,
Spreading, spreading from the center,
flowing on out to the sea.
And there is no way of telling where the end is going to be..

Drop a PEEBLE in the water: in a minute you forget,
But there's little waves a-flowing,
and there's ripples circling yet,
And those little waves a-flowing
To a great big wave have grown;
You've disturbed a mighty river just by dropping in a stone.

Drop an UNKIND WORD, in a minute it is gone;
But there's half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on and on.
They keep spreading, spreading..
spreading from the center as they go,
And there is no way to stop them,
Once you've started them to flow..

Drop an UNKIND WORD, or careless: in a minute you forget;
But there's little waves a-flowing,
and there's ripples circling yet,
And perhaps in some sad heart
A mighty wave of TEARS you've stirred,
And disturbed a life that was happy
As you dropped that unkind word.

Drop a WORD OF KINDNESS, just a flash and it is gone;
But there's half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on and on,
Bearing hope and joy and comfort on each splashing,
dashing wave till you wouldn't believe the volume of
The one kind word you gave.

Drop a word of KINDNESS: in a minute you forget;
But there's gladness still a-swelling,
And there's joy circling yet,
And you've rolled a wave of comfort
whose sweet music can be heard
Over miles and miles of water
just by dropping one kind word..

I also believe that "Kindness is the greatest Wisdom"
and here are some Wisdom words on this subject :

* Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
~Mark Twain

* Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.
~Plato

* The kindest word in all the world, is the unkind word unsaid...
~Author Unknown

* Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
~Leo Buscaglia

So don`t wait for people to be kind and friendly,
Just show them how...
and I`m sure you would..


Have an awesome weekend..

Addiction By Atif Hussain

The voices in my head
Screaming so loud I can't hear
Logic has long since fled
This chaos inside of me


It's like a drug I need
Coursing through my veins
Keeping me on high alert
Numbing me from anything else

The pain from your words stings
But at the same time I need it
Just to be able to understand

That I mean anything to you
It's like an addiction I can't break
I just keep coming back for more
Letting my heart suffer time and time again


The consequences evaporating
You tell me I'm worthless and

I believe you because I need to
In order to understand the fact

I'm just a human being
Imperfections make me beautiful
Or so I've heard sometimesI'd like to listen to you say those words

Of pure spite to help remind meI have sinned by being human
For this I deserve to be remindedOf all the imperfections that made meInto the person I am today

life..

My life a stage and I a puppet,
Strings in the hand of fate— the authority,
The fingers play with the chains of life,
And I walk on my path to destiny,

The hand pulls the strings and I,
Resist it; deny it, with virility,
I cry, I yell, I rebel, I plea,

I withdraw again helplessly,
And the magma erupts within,
To break the chains vehemently,
Desire to steal the forbidden joys,

My hands are cut mercilessly,
The chains tighten and pull me,
Oscillate me in kingdoms of ecstasy, agony,
Crushing my feelings, slaughtering my dreams,

I fall a victim to infinite vagaries.
I shout at the hand that reigns,
Bleeding, I ask for a moment of mercy,
Visible to me is than my decree,

My life captured by catalepsy….

the eye..

The eye is always associated in traditional cultures with light and spiritual perceptions. According to ancient beliefs, the eye was not a passive receiver of light, but rather a source of light.

It is believed that such was the power of the eye that certain creatures would have magical powers in their eyes. It is the case of Medusa in Greek mythology that would petrify anyone that would look at her. In Ancient Ireland, Balor, the king of Fomorians,, would use in the battlefields his bad eye against his enemies.


This belief in the bad eye gave rise in many cultures, especially Mediterranean ones, to many amulets supposed to protect people.The positive connotation of the eye is nevertheless wider and thus the eye is associated with knowledge and by extension with the power of foresight.

But the access to this type of vision – that goes beyond the mere appearance of things - is usually achieved by the sacrifice of this very organ.

The wise man Tiresias, Apollo’s priest, was blind. The Scandinavian God Odin also gives one of his eyes to the Giant Mimir for knowledge.

In Christianity the All Seeing Eye of God is represented inside the sun of a pyramid – which means that God sees all everywhere and always.

I asked this week to friends to stare a blank wall – what do you see?


In my case, I’m used to stare to a blank wall or a candle – but I don’t try to empty my mind because this is impossible. I rather try to follow my train of thought on what happens inside of me and I’m not entirely conscious.When I wrote the post on staring at the blank wall, I remember I was trying to think about songs, then about the name of the artist, at the same time I was thinking about of the plumber that had to show up in order to fix something in the house. Then I started to thinking about useless things and then I felt like having a coffee – but I still had two minutes to go. So these two minutes took an eternity and then I tried to make time run faster. This is when I get distracted and think about nothing. Then, all of the sudden, you realize that three minutes of your life have passed.Having said that - meditation is quite interesting. If you do that every day, for only three minutes, if you relax and try to calm yourself by starring at a blank wall or candle, or even closing your eyes and say to yourself “I can spend 10 minutes of my life in silence”

then you will see how things will improve. Because you unconscious mind goes to your conscious mind and somehow you start having intuitions that once were buried and now you can see.

Rainin..

my moment of solitude, this moment of rain,
silence ventriloquist, and the initial aroma,
touches the earth, with love and ardour,
the fragrance that dwells in this divine aqua,

I envisage at the splenduour of God’s envision,
this drizzle, this rejoice, the freshness, the culmination,
frankinsence of love, the ecstasy imprisoned,
soaking in rain, profundity of my imagination,
this night so dark, yet so brilliant, so effulgent,
luminiscent my soul, an emblem of glee,
the trees that embrace, this state of seduction,
the mystical liberty, mythical, the sense to be free,
I am immersed in rain, wash my torments,
falling on my self, playin with the air–fragrant,
wash my sins, subject my sighs to erosion,
erotic prognostication, majestic navigation,


a wolrd of merry, delightful predicitons,
travelling with this rain, to a zone of oblivion,
abone these shrines, this earth, domains of agination,
to a world of joys, radiance, self satisfaction.
