Dear Diary | 1447 AH | Day 353

Zul Qa’da 28, 1447 AH I’m trying to cleanup my drafts folder on blog. There were 1600+ posts just in draft folder, shows how ambitious I was about watching some dramas. I know I’m not going to, given that I abandoned them in the first place for a reason, a very strong reason. Rang Mahal,…

Sunday Screed | Teaholic

I’m a teaholic and I must first confess that it didn’t happen naturally. I forced myself into this habit. Because… why not? I had no aadat as such, no addiction, no desperate need for caffeine to function. Sure, I went out with my colleagues for tea at tea time, but the tea itself was almost…

Dear Diary | 1447 AH | Day 352

Zul Qa’da 27, 1447 AH Why Dated Diaries Aren’t For Me? I am a hoarder. I like buying things, and I like not using things once I’ve bought them. Diaries and notebooks, are two of my favourite things to collect and just keep ’em locked in my drawer. Jf I stack them, it’s be at least…

Dear Diary | 1447 AH | Day 351

Zul Qa’da 26, 1447 AH I’ve been meaning to write a hijri diary for a while. The seed of the idea came last year, before 1447 AH started, but then… I was focussing on something else entirely. Now that we’re almost starting 1448 AH, I have come to realize that the change should start small….

Thought of the Day #007

خرافاتی مجھے اکثر خود کی حرکتیں دیکھ کر یہ لفظ دماغ میں آتا ہے۔ رات بھر نہ سونا، دن بھر کام کرنا، بات بات پر چڑنا، کھانا ٹھیک سے نہ کھانا اور پھر رات بھر جاگنا۔۔۔ خرافات نہیں تو اور کیا ہے۔ ~~~ Want more of my trademark philosophy daily? Do three things, not necessarily…
