          Day 5 Eid and Formal

Not only through fashion tips on how to cover your beauty whilst still being stylish or showing us new ways of wrapping our hijaab but inspiring us through unity. Making us realise that sister, somewhere out there at this very moment there's a hijaabster like you, that's strutting her stuff in utter confidence so embrace your hijaab and don it with pride because it represents your honour.

the PRICELESS things

Every now and then I sit myself down and do some introspection of every aspect in my life. Simply to see if the track I am on is still the correct one. What I have found was that I am always in a hurry to get to the next point and never appreciating my present. Yes yes, you've guessed correctly. I tend to be a workaholic but that's just for the greater good I tell you :). So a couple of weeks ago Allah (God) blessed me, by allowing me to stumble into someone along this weary but exciting adventure I am on, called life. This person gave me so much valuable advise. One of those advises was CHILL! Yip you've read correctly. "You always so overwhelmed". My reaction to this was obviously "how dare you tell me that!". And the person replied:" CHILL!"
A few days later I'm on the pc doing research and I come across a verse in the Quraan (muslim's Holy book) in Surah Al Israa (17) verse 11
{And man supplicates for evil(when angry) as he supplicates for good and man is ever hasty}
AND MAN IS EVER HASTY.....?! is repeated in my head like a voice when its echoing in a cave. This is me, the warrior chick :) in my head say's. I was shocked, suprised and filled with contentment as  I read this verse over and over again. Then CHILL came to my mind and I couldn't do anything besides giggle loudly followed by subhaanallah. Since then, I've tried to CHILL. I am still new at pacing myself and still have a very long way to go. With this person's valuable advise of CHILL alhamdullilaah( all praise is due to Allah) I have found the priceless things in life. Funny enough it seems like the simplest things in life that we think should just be are the priceless ones.

Here are some of the priceless things in my life that I would like to share:
1. I AM A MUSLIM
2.I'm loved unconditionally by most people in that are in my life and that has been in my life
3.I am lucky enough to live in a country that's weather sometimes tend to have mood swings. This simply means that I can feel the warm rays of the sun tingling on my skin for a while and then gradually a cool breeze creeps up soothing the prickly sensation of the  heat on my skin. Sometimes instead of a breeze there would be a light drizzle that some how has a pleasant scent.
 4.So far I have been able to get up every morning with a sense of security and not fear for my life as I step out of my front door.
5.Not only can I dream but I have the means to live my dreams or at least try to live my dreams.
6.I literally love food!I eat like there's no tomorrow-why is this priceless...for a  week and a half I couldnt eat anything besides mashed Potatoe due to my wisdom teeth. My mouth ached so badly I couldn't even sleep. When I ate the only thing I could eat(mashed potatoe) took thirty minutes to eat and I couldn't really taste anything.:(

I've managed to find the price things in my life, so whats your's?
