Together..

Sara sent out the blogword today. It's together.

Security. Comfort. Fun. Memories.

None of the above. The word tangos on raw nerves.

My sense of security has been shattered. Fear has walked in. Comfort zone has been invaded. Building brutal memories while reliving older times.

Friends and family are hurt. The media is callous. The muslim leaders are fame thirsty. Speaking on microphones without remembering they too shall return. Backbiting. Mercilessly. Endlessly.

They ask for unity. The people are anything but! Sadly, we're NOT together. The community's sense of security, albeit false, has fizzled out. Everything is meaningless. But everything has to go on.

Hope and prayers are all we have. Hanging on tight for: 'the Believers are not tested but by His leave'.

May Allah swt ease the burdens of this ummah. Ameen
