How many…?
How many smiles have you smiled? How many tears have you cried? How many memories have you created? How many nights have you slept? How many moments have you relished? How many dreams have you made come true?Do you measure your life by how many years since you were born, or by how many days you’ve actually lived?

يا قمر
ليش يا قمر.. فرق الزمان بيننا و سرق منا الحنان؟
ليش يا قمر.. حبيبي إبتعد و تركني في دنيا مالها أمان؟
ليش يا قمر.. أنا وحيد أيامي ما إلتمت حوالي غير الأحزان؟
ليش يا قمر.. خليتني بهالدنيا عليل و تركت دموعي تمسح من على قلبي دمي السيلان؟
حياتي.. ما صار لها معنى أنا جسد بلا روح متروك لغدر الزمان
إنكتب لي أعيش بعذاب وحيد.. محروم.. و ولهان
ليش يا قمر.. وين راح الامل وين راح و تركني حيران؟
ليش يا قمر.. قلبي إبتعد ما ترك لي غير ذكريات الزمان؟
ذكريات ما لي غيرها هي دم جسدي العطشان
بها باواصل المشوار على أمل يرجع لي الحنان
ليش يا قمر.. ما اقدر أوصل لك و ألقى عندك ألامان؟
هذا حالي و ما أرجوا منك يا قمر غير إنك تخرجني من دنيا الحرمان
من دنيا ما أقدر أعيش بها دونك.. يا بئر يروي ظمأي, أنا عطشان

3eedkom Embarak
While the rest of the world celebrates “3eed el 7ejaj”, el 7ejaj themselves are still in Mecca finishing their rituals. Between rammy el jamarat wil 6awaf wil sa3ee, they’re still a couple days away from ending their Hajj journey.To all 7ujjaj Bait Allah: “Allah eridkom bil salameh inshAllah o yetqabal a3malkom o 6a3atkom. Ya36eekom alf se7a o 3afya.. Kil 3am winto ib5air ya asas hal eid!”
To the rest of us out there: “3eedkom embarak o ja3al Allah ayamkom sa3eeda.. yen3ad 3laikom bil 5air inshAllah..”

The Moment
For those of you who read and/or commented on my last post, the answer is “The Moment”. That one moment in time that we don’t notice and don’t pay enough attention to. The moment that we don’t appreciate nor realize its true value.We waste time like it’s endless. We watch tv, chat online, check email, blog, nap, and the list goes on and on. When’s the last time you turned off the tv, put down the newspaper, or walked away from your computer to just read some Quran or pray rak3atain for God?
How many times have you picked up the phone and talked endlessly with friends? How many times have you sat there and sms’ed back and forth? How many movies have you waited on and ran to see? How many moments did you waste instead of going to see a family member or sit and talk to/with your parents/siblings?
There are so many things we could use our time for better than what we’re doing. When people tell you “Live each day as if it was your last”, I tell you, “Live each moment as if it’s your last.. cuz it just might be!”

It’s Gone!
Did you feel that? It just passed right by you. You didn’t notice it? That’s a shame. You blinked and it went away.Guess you weren’t paying attention. No, it won’t come back. You should’ve taken better care of it when it was here. Guess you got so used to it, you didn’t even notice. You should’ve thought about it at the time, not after it’s too late. Yes, it is too late.
Want to try again, without messing it up this time round?
