Love Drunk

Today, I am consumed with love- the kind of love that causes restless sleep and random daydreams while doing things that normally require one's full attention such as driving, and praying astaghfirullah; my concentration is wrecked. I don't feel like this every single day, but every once in a while, I have a spell, where I truly internalize how blessed I am in this life, and it puts me in a trance that lasts a few days. Please don't misunderstand me. I am eternally grateful for everything Allah (swt)has graced me with, but these feelings are very special and very intense. Alhamduillah for everything in this life and the next.

I wrote this in the begninning of July 2007. We discovered we were pregnant about three weeks later.

As'salamu alaykum.

Greetings and Salutations :)

This isn't as easy as I thought it would be. I certainly do not minimize one's ability to write- especially an internet blog. I have come across so many that are absolutely riveting and keep me coming back for more. Perhaps I haven't blossomed yet. Maybe, tonight is my first step. I don't know why, but the notion of having a blog is very appealing. I wonder what I will say, and what I will be willing to share with the general cyber-public.

I always think I have so much to say, so where did it go????

As'salamu alaykum.
