...in the name of ALLAH...
..."and serve your Lord, until there come unto you the Hour that is certain." 15:99 ...
...there is a repetition of death... of the great return... of reconsidering arrogance that comes from attachment to the sensual by considering all previous generations - in one way or another they have perished... all do... alexander the great amongst them... as hamlet lamented in coming to grips with the ceiling of life...
...to be more that an actor strutting upon the stage... i've been working to fulfill my obligations through fulfilling my obligations in Work... going into mujjahadar with the nafs of procrastination... of taking time for granted... of laziness... of fear of rejection... of fear that i don't know enough... whether i do or not is moot... given what i do Know - that ALLAH Knows best - that i am limited in my knowledge but to the best of my ability i believe this can help because...
...so transferred the oil yesterday... a whole gallon transferred minus the 10 or so oz i lost in the transfer process... being aware of the moon... feeling its presence... full and enveloping me in an emotional landscape...
...in fulfilling my obligations i am applying what i've learned that is honoring and sanctifying - soing one thing at a time... being fully present, so when i spoke to family last night... did nothing other than speak and listen... no scanning the web... no other screens open... no other to do's...
...Work is a beautiful struggle... alhamdulillah....
