together we stand, together we strive

when i was only at page 68, i said it was a thrill; that i could see something was opening up. but when i came to page 300, it was full of confusion and conflict. a life story, especially a good one, is always more complicated, unsettling though at the same time revealing, than we have ever imagine it may be.

at some point after that, i thought that maybe i should stop reading. or perhaps i should have never started reading it. with a novel, i could easily do that, but i didn't, because i felt that i need to know the ending of the story.

and somehow it is the same with life. through thick and thin, no matter how it started and whatever lies on the way, like you said, 'the end is what matters the most'.

that's how i keep on going, with you. that's how i stay, that's how i never let you go. we have always dreamed and longed for this love; i want you just as much as you want me.

that's why we'll go on, slowly and steadily. we may stumble on the way, we may fall on slippery edges, but we'll stand together again. we cannot promise anything to each other, but we will try our best.

as for the rest, we let Allah decides. for it is in His hands that everything is written, all prayers end up upon. o Allah, please forgive us for our sins and help us through. we need You so, so much.

ameen.
