Memoirs of an American Muslim V.02

About Me

Life is short, eat a donut…

After 23 years on this planet we call Earth, I have learned a thing or two about this thing we call life. I am just here to share my findings.

They say… to the world you may mean nothing… but to someone, you may mean the world…

I travel through life in search of meaning… I travel through life in search of love, in search of you, in search of me, in search of we… There is no greater accomplishment in life than true realization of existence… Actualization of being…

I despise those who try to destroy the beauty that God has created. Sometimes I get angry, at other time I sympathize… Regardless, I feel pain, and it doesn’t seem to want to go away…

    It has brought information and curiosity.

  26. wow! subhaan Allaah! Those few lines were just spectacular. Amazing, ma sha Allah.

    How do you feel on blogging about The Marriage Revolution project http://www.iWannaGetMarried.com ? That would be really truly absolutely super-duper awesome :)

    There’s a video also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JH-mt476Y9Q

    Given your rich background and experience, if you could also share your thought on that blog, you’d be so cool.

    Keep up the search though. Because it’s the journey that shapes you, not the destination itself.
