Inspirational Stories for You and Me

Bismillaah As Salaamu 'alaykum and peace to all, That day i attended a luncheon party with some of my girlfriends. Some of us have not seen each other for months. So, naturally, yackity, yackity yack, we go on and on. Exchanging stories, updates, few laughters and tears between us. That is the bonding of friendship that we have, and , more importantly, sisterhood. Then, one of my friend told us that she is quiting her studies. We were stunned. She said that she is overwhelmed with work and family. "But you are almost there already!" I told her. "No, i cant do it!" " I am tired" "Everyday when i come back home, there is this baby, the house, cooking, laundry and then i had to study" "Ok, granted. It is very challenging to be alive.

The boy who liked eating sweets - A Motivational Story on Showing Examples

Bismillaah As Salaamu 'alaykum and peace to all, I was at my dad's place that day. To my delight, both my sister and brother were there. My sister has 3 lovely children, 2 girls and a boy. While my brother has 2 boys. I adore them all. They are this Masya'Allaah typical hyperactive children, always on the lookout of things to explore, curious, handful, very intelligent, creative which sometimes of course, has resulted them getting into trouble. My sisters sometimes commented on how much they wished that whatever they say will be obeyed immediately by their children without having to use the 'i am going to cane you' facial expression, or having to repeat the words again and again like parrots!
