A silver lining

“Shahl I hope you are aware of this phrase in life, that every cloud has a silver lining”, I posed a message to her while we were in the midst of our chat at yahoo. Hmm.. she replied, and then went ahead and said, “see for me the silver lining is you dear”, she just smiled to this. Though this claim of mine may sound a hyperbole, but trust me when I often sit and have a flash back of one month, I could notice my life so turbulent, but certainly its treading a path towards my stability. And a soul like me who was so carefree and careless sounds so serious in life that it’s hard to digest the same. We often remember 9/11 and its aftermath, as to how things changed after that, but for me its 9/23, which had been so instrumental in making things this way.
When I tried to explain this silver lining kind of thing to Shahl, she preferred staying modest as usual, by saying, “ aisa kuch nahi hai okay, and there is something more good in life to be seen and experience” . she may deny though, but in my heart I know and confess things weren’t so drastic and turbulent in the past as its seems now. I often say to br Salahuddin that I was not like this before, it just like a fantasy kind of thing rather, to which he adds its just a divine thing, give it a proper direction and soon you will be among those who are the most contented people on this earth. Indeed a silver lining for any dark cloud is very significant as it brings new hope, a new aspirations and gives a new life all together, and that’s what Shahl has done in my life.
May Allah help us to be together here and hereafter .. .. Ameen
