Random Thoughts!!

"You should imagine everyone whom you see as better than yourself, even though someone may be obedient and someone else disobedient, since it might be that the obedience of the former is the last of his acts of obedience while the sinfulness of the latter is the last of his sinful acts."
"Know that the hearing and eyesight are two open doors; whatever enters through them reaches the heart."
Let time pass by, and do as it wishes;
Be strong when the decreed is delivered to you.
Wail not for your afflictions in the night
For, worldly miseries are not everlasting
When calamity strikes, face up like a man
And let your traits be that of forgiveness and fidelity
If your flaws are plenty and are manifest
And your wish is that they be concealed
Know, that forgiveness hides every fault
And how many flaws are veiled by generosity!
Neither does agony abide, nor happiness
And neither bad-times nor times of joy and comfort
Never should you seek to humiliate your enemies
Because the desire to disgrace them is in itself a malady
Do not expect forgiveness from a miser,
The parched do not quench their thirst from fire
Your sustenance will not diminish by neglect,
And it will not increase by exertion or by more toil
When you have a heart that is satisfied, content -
You will be like the one who owns the whole world
And those who have entered the sphere of death
The earth cannot hide them nor heavens
Surely, the land of Allāh is vast, but -
When misfortune strikes, the air becomes stifling
Let the world betray and deceive every moment -
No matter what; there is no escape from death.

and he told me to throw a stone into the water.
He told me to watch the circles created by the stone.
Then he asked me to think of myself as that stone.
He said, "You may create lots of splashes in your life but the waves that come from those splashes will disturb the peace of all your fellow creatures."
Remember that you are responsible for what you put in your circle,
and that circle will also touch many other circles.
You will need to live in a way that allows the good that comes from your circle to send the peace of that goodness to others.
The splash that comes from anger or jealousy will send those feelings to other circles.
You are responsible for both."
That was the first time I realized each person creates the inner peace or discord that flows out into the world.
We cannot create world peace if we are riddled with inner conflict, hatred, doubt, or anger.
We radiate the feelings and thoughts that we hold inside, whether we speak them or not.
Whatever is splashing around inside of us is spilling out into the world,
creating beauty or discord with all other circles of life.

I had leisure, so what did i do?!
I checked the computer to see if I'd heared from you.
I used to walk out to a box to retrieve mail
But I'd rather get it instantly than wait on the snail...
Checking my e-mail is always fun
I usually get a joke or greeting from someone.
I feel so blessed because on the other end I know I've connected witha a friend.
When I have had a hard day and need to share here I can find a friend who will listen and care.
And to this friend I hope I've let them know that I am always there for them also.
Isn't it a strange kind of bond we form?! It isn't like the ¨norm¨.
But where is it written, face to face we have to be for you, to be a very good friend to me?!!
That little joke, or note, or even just a simple ¨Hi¨ Could be like a ray of sunshine from the sky.
So my online-pals, this is dedicated to you for all the smiles you have made anew
May our friendship continue to grow and the warmth we feel continue to flow.
