Of revolutionizing reminders.

All thanks and praises be to Allah for the lovely and beautiful Ramadan; it's here again to greet us. It is always a surreal feeling, no matter who you are and what you did - this holy month could never not give you the warmth and awakening that we all truly need.

The fact that it's finally here, kinda caught me off guard because my goodness, how time flies! It's already June. I purposely put up a small calendar on one of my walls and I kept it open at the January tab, where I remember telling myself that in no time, June will arrive and guess what, it's here.

Let's return to the past few days; my big event is finally over and once again, alhamdulillah it was a good one and everything was on track. My plate is literally empty right now because we haven't started discussing the next issue of the magazine, hence my ever so positive vibes in this post. Such a clear space in my head and heart right now, it's so overwhelming, but definitely in a good way. My weekend was so packed, spent it meeting my loved ones as Sansan's family was here and Dedek's too. So blessed to be able to see familiar faces after a night of infinite strangers talking to me (well, I know some of them already since they are recurring guests but you know the drill) so yes, I'm so happy that the weekend is way past me now.

Another good news is that I've finally found a new house. It's really hard to bid goodbye to the current one because ugh, too many memories but I'm not going to write about that just yet as we are all in the midst of packing things and clearing the house so let's just pray that it can all be settled by this week.

I'm so so so happy that Ramadan is here I don't know how else to say this; despite the little tinge of sadness that I feel every now and then about not being able to fast with the whole family but this is not the first time for me and since we are going to celebrate Eid in my hometown this year inshaAllah, I'm not going to dwell too long on it. Ramadan is no less beautiful indeed and I must always remember that.

A perfect month for everyone to be what they really wanna be (I'm not speaking on behalf of everyone but I believe this is how everyone feels) and such a perfect month to free ourselvea up from all the bad things in our lives. Sometimes we completely forgot that our hearts need a constant healing but oh how merciful He is to be sending us Ramadan to remind us and ease us all. May the month be a blessed one for each and everyone of you, may we no longer be attached to the worldly desires after this and may everything leads us to the One and Only.

Ramadan Kareem, everyone!
