If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands. :)

mood: Happy happy happy
craving: mango ice tea from Caribou with my best friends. It's delish. *drool*

Salam Alikom (Peace be with you)  to all my Muslim readers and Hello to all my non-Muslim readers. 
 
First of all, I just want to thank Om Abdullah for having all us girls over yesterday, we had such a great time (like always.) You always know how to brighten someone's day.. :) My house next time. :)

Yesterday's dessert.. Thanks Aisha, it was delicious.

Second of all, I am really happy I almost have 200 followers. It makes me happy that there are people out there who find my blog a little bit interesting and from time to time come and read what I have to say. :D Please comment and let me hear your thoughts, opinions and anything else you have on your mind. Let me get to know you, like you have gotten to know me. oxox's

Now, let's talk about being happy. 

Have you ever asked yourself what real happiness is? I'm sure you have..  My mom always told me, "To find real happiness is within oneself." If you always only do everything for the sake of our Lord, then nothing can affect you, unless you let it. It would really change things in your life for the better. Anyone who chooses to be happy, can be happy. You don't have to have money to be happy; it doesn't matter, as long as you focus and know, no matter what, you can control how you feel. 

Some things that make me happy are:

A house to call home



spending a lot of time with my family.





Living next door to my in laws. 

talking to my dad 

those one million calls back and forth with my best friends

Girlie get together s. <3 <3 <3 *the BEST*

seeing my son and daughter interact with each other <3 *what a great feeling* 

hugs & kisses from my kids



My husband thanking me for being "me". 

A message from one of my MSU sisters.. Just because. 


seeing people happy. 



being Muslim

Sweet messages on my bbm.

A cuddly puppy. 



worshipping Allah (God) 




The list can go on and on and on. Y'all get the picture? 

When I am down and out I remember this list and I can't help but smile. Who can be sad when one is so truly blessed. Being blessed doesn't mean you have a million dollars in your pocket or a fancy schmancy car or  you can get anything you want. 

Being blessed is having, Allah (God) in your life and all that He has blessed you with. Having a great family/friends who love you for who you are. Having food on the table. That's what's being blessed is. If you're struggling with any of the above things, just know: God will not let you down. If you don't have the perfect family, know there is no such thing as a perfect family. We all have our struggles and faults and we have to overcome those struggles. How do we overcome them? The only way would be ask Allah (God) for help. That would be the ONLY way. No other way. Ask and you shall receive. He is the oft merciful. The compassionate. He is the one that I am living for. Let's all count our blessings. Be grateful. This is a reminder to myself and then to the rest of my sisters and brothers, out there in this big universe. 


I want all my readers to know, the reason for me making this blog, is to put a smile on your face. When I do that, I'm happy. When I see my husband read my entries and he's smiling all the way through, that makes my heart happy. I feel like :)))))))))))) 

Know that anything you are going though, it will pass. Another door will open. Be sure of that. 

Tell me, what are somethings that make you happy? I wanna know, I care. :))))))

Final whisper:  take time to love yourself. BE HAPPY.

A prayer for you.

mood: busy as a bee
craving: to relax

Salam Alikom (Peace be with you)  to all my Muslim readers and Hello to all my non-Muslim readers. I've been very busy these days. God's willing, I'll be back to posting on my blog, but for now, I am a busy bee. Life happens. <3 I pray that everyone is doing well. Until I get back to my regular blogging, here's a prayer for my readers. Have a blessed day and week. 





O Allah (God!) You are my Lord. There is no deity except You. You are my Creator and I am your creature. I try to keep my covenant with You and to live in the hope of Your promise as well as I can. I seek refuge in You from my one evil deeds. I acknowledge Your favours to me; and I acknowledge my sins. Forgive me my sins, for there is no one who can forgive sins except You

اللهم أنت ربي, لا إله إلا أنت , خلقتني وأنا عبدك, وأنا على عهدك ووعدك ماستطعت, أعوذ بك من شر ما صنعت, أبوء لك بنعمتك علي و أبوء بذنبي فاغفر لي, فإنه لا يغفر الذنوب إلا أنت

Allah (God) ! I seek refuge in You from worry and sorrow. I seek refuge in You from impotence and sloth, from stinginess and cowardice, and I seek refuge in You from the burden of debt and from being humbled be men

اللهم إني أعوذ بك من الهم والحزن ، وأعوذ بك من العجز والكسل ، وأعوذ بك من الجبن والبخل ، وأعوذ بك من غلبة الدين وقهر الرجال


O Allah (God)! Grant health to my body. O Allah (God) grant health to my hearing. O Allah (God)! Grant health to my sight. There is no deity except You.

الله عافني في بدني ، اللهم عافني في سمعي ، اللهم عافني في بصري



final whisper: Ameen, wa sally Allahuma ala sayedina Mohammed wa sallim taslima katheera.. AMEEN!
