What you want might be differ from what you need; What you need might differ from what you want; What'd you do when what you want doesn't want you?  What'd you do when what you need doesn't need you?  You're going to be left alone in your thought  What'd you say when your thought is against you?  How do u react when what you're against keep on popping out in your thought?  What'd u do when you can't talk What do you say when you just don't know how you feel?  And nobody knows how you feel; For individual has their own differences; Are you thinking what I am thinking ?  Is it that our thoughts are the same?  You alone can answer that; For you alone know your thought; Ain't a soothsayer to know what's going through your mind; Until we rob minds together; Because I alone know my thought; Even I don't want to be alone ; Because I hate my thought on my own; But I'm still here ....... Alone with my thought Never judge a book...

I am a staight path! He who treks me with ultimate faith in Allah and His Apostle leads to no other abode but Jannatul Firdaws. I am a straight path! He who treks me with a pure heart coupled with steadfastness leads to no other abode but Jannatul Firdaws. I am a straight path! He who treks me taking along the holy key; Five daily prayers leads to no other abode but Jannatul Firdaws. I am a straight path! He who treks me along with Zakat, Sawm and Hajj to the holy Land leads to no other abode but Jannatul Firdaws. I am a straight path! He who treks me preaching Righteousness and forbidding sleazy acts leads to no other abode but Jannatul Firdaws. I am a straight path! He who treks me with perseverance and avoiding the tides of life leads to no other abode but Jannatul Firdaws. I am a straight path! He who treks me with Qur'an & Sunnah while shunning  innovation(s) leads to no other abode but jannatul Firdaws  *~De'envoy*   *©1441*

   At the call of it my heart skipped a bit; My limbs shiver like NO tomorrow; I got swayed away by its likeness; I was so mesmerized by its merriment; I couldn't get its imagination off my head; I couldn't think straight cox of its sayings I began to think of what to do to acquire it; Is it something to be acquired on a platter of gold?  Why can't I just cut my cake and have it?  Why can't I acquire it without any stress?  Then something pop up in my mind; Why can't you graduate without attending school?  Why can't you survive without breathing?  Why can't you become wealthy without working?  Why can't your prayer be answered without praying?  Why can't you acquire knowledge without seeking for it?  Why can't you be healed without medication?  Then it bounced on me; Paradise isn't what to be acquired easily ; You've gotta work towards it; The work might be easy nd hard at the same time ; Depending on how you perceive it...
