Dependency



You are drowning, struggling against the current, hoping someone will see you, reach out, and pull you to safety. But what if no one does? What if the river of life takes you further and further, and there’s no helping hand in sight? Will you keep waiting, hoping, or will you fight your way back to solid ground?

Life has its way of testing us, pushing us into deep waters, and sometimes, there’s no one there to rescue us. In those moments, you have two choices: sink or swim. You can wait for someone to notice your struggle, or you can find the strength within yourself to rise.

It’s not about rejecting help when it's offered; it's about preparing yourself for the times when no help comes. You don’t always get a lifeboat—sometimes, you have to build your own. Learn to navigate the waves, to float when the waters are too rough, and to swim when you see a way forward.

Relying on others completely is like standing on thin ice—it may hold for a while, but eventually, it cracks. The people you count on might not always be there, not because they don’t care, but because they have their own battles. That’s why self-reliance is not just an option; it’s a necessity.

So, stand up, shake off the fear, and embrace your independence. Walk your path with confidence, knowing that you are capable. Your happiness, your survival, your success—it all starts with you.

"You have power over your mind—not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength." — Marcus Aurelius

Super Human

Do you feel trapped in your own thoughts?   Like your mind is a never-ending maze, filled with worries, doubts, and fears? What’s stopping you from breaking free? Pause. Breathe. You're overthinking again. That restless feeling, that voice whispering worst-case scenarios—it’s just another trick your mind is playing. But you are not your thoughts. You are the master of your mind, not its prisoner. So take control. MASTER your mental power. Whatever is weighing you down, let it go. Free your mind, free yourself. Let your heart take the lead—it knows the way. When you think with your heart, you find clarity. When you see with your heart, you recognize truth. When you listen with your heart, you understand beyond words. When you feel with your heart, you experience life fully. When you act with your heart, you move with purpose. When you speak with your heart, your words heal. "Think with your heart. See with your heart. Hear with your heart. Feel with your heart. Act with your he...

The Historical Significance of Palestine: From First Temple to Hazrat Musa (A)

Palestine in the Time of Hazrat Musa (AS): A Divine Test and a Cosmic Shift The story of Palestine begins with Hazrat Musa (AS) and Bani Israel. After their escape from Pharaoh's oppression in Egypt, the Israelites wandered in the wilderness for forty years due to their disobedience. According to Islamic tradition and Jewish scripture, Allah had promised them a blessed land—Palestine—if they remained steadfast in faith and obedience. However, when ordered to enter the land, they refused out of fear of its inhabitants, leading to their prolonged wandering in the desert (Al-Ma'idah: 21-26). Only after the passing of that generation did their successors, under the leadership of Prophet Yusha (AS) (Joshua), enter the promised land. One unique aspect often overlooked is how this period of wandering reshaped not only the faith but also the identity of Bani Israel. The delay in entering Palestine was not merely a punishment—it was a divine transition where a new generation, unshackled...

Freedom vs Free Will

Look at the image above. What do you see? At first glance, it’s obvious—two birds flying away from a cage they were once locked in. But I see it in two ways: The First Perspective The birds were trapped in the cage until someone—perhaps their owner—opened the door, setting them free. Now, they can go wherever they wish, carried by the wind. The sky is vast and open, but even it has limits. Birds, like all creatures, have their own range; their flight is not infinite. Even freedom comes with boundaries. The Second Perspective Perhaps the cage was never locked—its door left open all along. The birds had a choice: to stay, to leave, or to return after exploring. The decision was entirely theirs. What’s Common in Both? Freedom and Free Will. The First Perspective: Freedom Misunderstood Society creates cages—rules, expectations, restrictions. When someone is confined for too long, sudden freedom can feel overwhelming. Like the birds carried by the wind, we may mistake absolute freedom as h...
