OVERTHINKER..

What some people may call "over thinking" is something that I partake in often.


Rarely do I sit and think about something without it leading to all kinds of possibilities.

I honestly do not know if this is a good or bad thing. 
And trust me, it is never a concern about what other people think that I do this, but rather a way of portraying myself in a certain way FOR myself, to be a better person.


But for example, when I think that, my head will lead to a place that questions whether my intentions are pure and whether what I am doing is actually for myself or as pure as I assume I am being.



Does that complicate things?


Is it necessary?


I guess I will have to figure that out for myself as I go through life Insha'Allah.



As a Muslim it should be our priority to be God-conscious and to be aware. But Islam is never a religion that puts us in a situation that is difficult without a way out.



Allah is all Wise and all Knowing, and we have to believe that whatever is best for us is what we will get. 



We just need to try our best. Life is complicated as it is. We just need to have that 100% certainty that we are not in it alone and that Allah (swt) does not leave his believers to go astray and what is best for them is what they shall receive. 



Remember, how you think of Allah is how He will be to you. Think positive and Allah will never disappoint.

NATURAL BEAUTY

I cant remember when my passion for photography first grew.
I feel like it has always been there, the desire to capture reality as a means of keeping the present forever.
But sometimes its hard to capture the essence, the purity of the moment.

We have a hazelnut tree in our garden and usually when my mother picks them they don't taste very nice.
But recently she tried them and liked the taste as it had become sweet.
Its funny how something that looks beautiful can actually be hard to crack.
Also occasionally when cracking the nut, a beautiful outter shell opened and led to brown empty inside shell.

SubhanAllah.

That says a lot about life in general.

And [He has subjected] whatever He multiplied for you on the earth of varying colors. Indeed in that is a sign for a people who remember. (16:13)
