Life has taught me that god does have our best interests at heart, that most tiems the biggest favors fate does us is not giving us what we yearn for and that in the end everything does turn out moderately well. Keeping this in mind while I accept whatever is in store for me at times I YEARN for what the heart desires even if its probably not worth the struggle, I do wish for some people who are definitely not worth my time and I do desire what is so not worth my attention J humans and I specially are perverse in that manner.

Having said that, may things turn out well and FAST! A very happy eid to everyone celebrating tomorrow. May It bring all that you desire in ways that make it worth your time and more. To a day of laughter with loved ones and more, have fun!

And just when I had written the closing line, I recall how I was always on the backfoot when foreigners would ask why we couldn’t even agree on a single eid day till someone wise pointed out that allowances for variations is just a small example of what makes islam the religion of peace and tolerance. After all if we think about it what could be more tolerant and ‘live & let live* then making allowances and giving every local witness the benefit of doubt when it comes to celebrating the biggest muslim festival. To diversity in all its forms…..
