En Route Denmark

I am all ready to get on a flight to Denmark where I will be catching one of my best friends. I'm so excited for this little trip, because it was planned back many months :) I hope to catch you guys later and blogging is not going with me :) I'm happy and I'm smiling. I found a wonderful quote picture on web but could not find the actual source. Hope you'll find it inspiring.

Have a happy weekend,

Iqra

The rest is still unwritten

Yesterday it was raining over here. In morning it was raining, then it got sunny and now again it's raining over here. Weather over here is always unpredictable. In one moment its sunny and next moment it will be rainy. Same is the life we are living, in one moment it is perfect happy and next moment you have to decide between things. Life is always like this it starts a new chapter for you and then pen is in your hand, it is up to you how and what you write. 

Looking that it's raining is one of my favorite feelings. I feel comfort in the rain. When rain drops fall on my face and body it makes me feel more alive.

Feel the rain on your skin

No one else can feel it for you

Only you can let it in

No one else, no one else

Can speak the words on your lips

Drench yourself in words unspoken

Live your life with arms wide open

Today is where your book begins

The rest is still unwritten

I Q R A

Sometimes

I just really miss my mother . . .

With love,

Iqra 

Baby you're a firework, come on show them what you're worth

May be you're reason why all the doors are closed

So you could open one that leads you to the perfect world

Like a lightening bolt, your heart will blow

And when it's time, you'll know

Katy Perry - Firework 

This song is such an inspiration for me. I never heard this because it was in the hot billboard charts but because of the amazing lyrics. I've heard this some more than 100 times and it always gave me a new inspiration. 

I believe everyone can be a firework, it's all about igniting the spark inside you. It's how you think about your goals and make them happen. "Do you know that there's still a chance for you, cause there is a spark in you ? You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine. Cause baby you're a firework, C'mon show them what you're worth"

Are you having any inspiration in life that let you going ?

  

Keep Smiling,

Iqra

 

Red Zone

We all heard the statement like "5 Minutes Left"

Guess where we heard it ? Off course taking an exam :) My God, it is the time when brain shudders, blood curdles and arms tingle. I can bet nothing is worse than the moment you enter 5 minutes Red Zone. I still have to enter these red zones for another year or so. 

Ahh, that reminds me about the sleep one used to have in exam days. Every time you sit in front of books, the fatigue just floods your internal system gradually closing down all parts of your body. Pain lunge at eyelids forcing them shut. But in next moment you realize that you need to study and therefore concentrate on books and notes. And within next few minutes the words on books become blurred, then the yawn, the body starts screaming of tiredness. And next moment you realize its time to obey the body and there you go straight on bed :P

Did you find yourself in same situation during exams and study ? I guess YES :P

Night Night,

Some of the most adorable necklaces I have ever seen in my life. I badly need at least one of them :P Which one you like ?

Tuesday is teasing me. I am not feeling well, might be because of this cold cloudy weather and the cool breeze. I need some sunshine. How is at your side ?

*Smiles*

I Surrender

Surrender - Whenever I read this word I just want earphones deep in ear, eyes closed and just wait for Celine Dion to hit the high note "I Reeeeeeeeeeach to Youuuuuuuuu"

Cause I’d surrender everything
To feel the chance to live again
I reach to you
I know you can feel it too
We’d make it through
A thousand dreams I still believe
I’d make you give them all to me
I’d hold you in my arms and never let go
I surrender

Right here, right now
I give my life to live again
I’ll break free, take me
My everything I surrender all to you

Handwritten Letters From Loved Ones

There is always some association and emotions attached to handwritten letters. We are overwhelmed with this electronic media and hence forgot to write such letters in long time. A letter from someone special could be tucked under pillow unlike email. A friend of mine shared a wonderful website with me. I read many wonderful letters over there. I am sharing one of them over here. Hope you will enjoy. 

It was in June of 1998 that legendary comedian George Carlin married Sally Wade. Tragically, just two days before their tenth anniversary, he passed away. Below is one of countless love notes he wrote to his wife.

Transcript:

SALLYBURGER,

If you took THE NUMBER OF SUB-ATOMIC PARTICLES IN THE UNIVERSE and multiplied that number times itself THAT MANY TIMES; and then added the total number of MICRO-SECONDS since the beginning of time, times itself; and then added 803—you would STILL have only the tiniest fraction of A BILLION-BILLIONTH PER CENT of the amount of love I HAVE FOR YOU.

Love,
your candle partner,
the romantic Mr Carlin,
your eternal flame.

Have fun,

Thank You :)

I am here with some Thank You notes for the first time. Though from many days my bestie Mehreen was saying me to start it but I was incredibly lazy in this matter. Finally, now I made it for you guys. I felt so happy writing them. Every minute there is so much to be thankful for!

 

Sweet Dreams,

Oh, the revolving mind

Many of us has experienced that their life has taken an unexpected turn. All of sudden everything change, perspective change, people change, the paths to destination change and head starts spinning. I don't know if it happens with all of you or I am the only one facing this situation.

I think about the girl I used to be, then I think about the girl I want to be. Why I can't end up thinking kind of girl I'd be. People changed me like they change anyone else. Sometimes people change us for good and sometimes for bad. And finally we say "It's life, it always take turns, it's bad and good at the same time". Sometimes one person alone leads you to bushes or to the wonderful meadows.

I know soon things will be as they should be. So I am high on this, taking on fresh courage and soon I will have a brand new tale saying All is Well, All is Well !

Have a high weekend,

Iqra

MAY - Please be good to me

May 2010 - May 2011 one whole year is passed. I am at new place, new people, new places. Though I feel quite comfortable and happy that my life is taking the path it's supposed to be. But I am facing May with same situation with no employment to speak of.

Well, its said go where you can get best of things for yourself. I'm happy with my decision, I feel good, I'm exploring a new country, new city. I'm enjoying just being me. I know it seems tough when you are unemployed but I know I'll find a job eventually which will pay off all tough times.

SO might be where I am right now is where I'm supposed to be !

Hope you all had a great weekend behind you :)

Smile its Friday

 

So finally we are hitting the weekend. Everyone is going to have a rest from tiring week. Now days no one is free, no one can say that week was just chilled or so on. I wish all days could be as generous as Friday's are :) Lately I was thinking we all have lost so much of us in this world. Every day we loose some portion of us, some good things of us, some bad things of us. What I feel is we lost so much and gain less. I don't know how much I am correct in saying this. Should not we think as what we need to get back in our lives ? When I think this way I have a long wishlist which goes on and on. Are there anythings you guys need back in your life ? If so, share with me. I'd love to read them :)

I have been boring for the longest time which is not working well at all. We should enjoy the beauties of life, no matter how down you or me are. Ahh, I am trying and trying. I need to go and relax at some peaceful place, I won't mind some water and sun though. "Dear God, take all these worrying thoughts off my mind till Monday"

 

 Have a relaxing weekend all of you !

Take care,

Iqra

Love being WOMAN

Hello beautiful ladies,

I love you all out there :) I am here to say few words which might make you think in different direction. Many of us think that we are not gorgeous, smart and other insecurities like this. Don't ever think that you have to settle with someone because he might be someone in long time to show some interest in you. I believe and I am sure that there is going to be someone who will truly love you for YOU. Girls are always beautiful in their individual ways and I love being woman :) 

Because I am soft and have long and silky hairs :P

Because I have been given an honor to give birth to another life.

Because I can tolerate utmost pain and hardships and I am stronger.

Because I can multitask, can manage a home and beside that have a career too.

Because I can be Dad's princess and Hubby's queen.

It's awesome. marvelous to be a woman. I heart it :)

Love ya all,

Iqra

Dedicated to boys

I was watching a video clip and it made me laugh like crazy. A couple was shown sitting on bench and boy didn't left any stones unturned to make her girl smile and tell him actually what had happened. But girls are girls indeed. You will never be able to know what actually had happened, and if something has really happened or not *Smiles* Girls are like this, Dad's princess and Hubby's queen. I can't stop myself sharing some of the common sentences said by boys and their replies from girls side :P Enjoy it ;

Relax honey and tell me what happened: Who you are to tell me to relax han ? You have no idea why i am upset and from which situation i am coming out. Even if you were with me that time, you won't be able to get what i am suffering. So stop saying me relax.. Poor boy thinking what to say now.

Everything gonna be alright, believe me: Ya you just have these words to say, never thought of how everything would be fine at my end. And don't bother to ask now that what had happened, because now the time is gone.. Poor boy thinking what happened and how come she gonna tell me so that i can help her.

Sweety i love you: Ya after all what had happened you just have the words i love you and thinking that you have done the best. So now everything gonna be fine just like movies? But mind it we are not actors of movie, come to some real world.. .. Aahh :-( What to do now.

Sorry, it was all my fault: Listen your sorry does not work with me. Saying everything and then just getting away with SORRY, IT WAS ALL MY FAULT. Do you actually think i will let you go away like this ? :-( Gosshh what is my mistake and what i have done, why i am saying sorry.. yuukkkhhh 

I am not going to write more of them because I guess boys know all of that:P Loollz

Doodles,

Iqra 

Pray, Because ALLAH always listens ..

Dear ALLAH, Today I repent and ask you to hear me, forgive me, and grant me the goodness to make my home, have my family and start a life every woman eagerly awaits with love and understanding. Ameen

 

Until Next Time,

Iqra
