WELCOME TO MY WORLD

A decade ago a dear friend of mine and I were talking and I mentioned a dream of mind to build a blog or a site where I could share my writings. At that time, I wanted to write about "Being all 3" - Female, Pakistani and a Muslim. I wanted to put into writing the good, and bad, I saw by being all three, and how they have defined who I have become. My friend encouraged me and said he would be the first to read everything I wrote. Yet, as with most dreams, life has a way of putting them in the backseat. Between being a wife, a mom, an IT professional, a daughter, a friend, etc. I let my own desires and dreams go.

In 2015, as I muddled through a lot of personal and emotional turmoil, compounded with being a Muslim female who proudly wears the hijab, I had so many thoughts bounding in my mind. After months of struggles, I took out a notebook and a pen. That first night, I wrote for over 4 hours, and once I started I couldn't stop. As the thoughts continuted to come into my head, i fould I could not escape them until I wrote them down. The writer I had quashed for so many years was pounding to come out and kept going at it, I finally caved. I began building a collection of writings, which evolved into a process of finding peace for myself. This site is the end result - my outlet.

On ths site, I look to share my writings, and other thoughts, that run through my frantic, and often, sardonic, mind. I want this to be a place readers can find topics being discussed with humor and sarcasm, but all in an educated, intelligent, and sophisticated manner. This site is not meant to be political, disparaging, or disrespectful and if that is why you are here, this site is not for you.

As scary as it is, I look forward to sharing me with the world and I'm finally brave enough (I think) to welcome the world's response.
