FOOD FOR THOUGHTS
Dear Ummah,
I want to start my letter by appreciating all the sensitive, emotional, thoughtful, loving and outspoken people in the entire universe both men, women and animals. You may be wondering why animals but in the course of these thoughts, you will understand.
Shout out to the oppressed whom had been trying to give their feelings a voice but due to the world that tell us to be silent, became dumb.
Also, I recognize the likes of people who are already aware of who they are and helping others find the true meaning of life, to those that are still trying to find their path and those who have lost to love and death.
Credit to the men and women who have endured domestic violence and sexual abuse.
And at last, to those singles out there, married, divorced, widows and widowers.
To be candid, I respect your courage to forge in life despite all odds if you have not given up yet.
Majority of people especially men, believed that to be emotional and be sensitive is being weak but I say no, it is not. Being emotional is the strength many people have lost today. Just because the world judge and frown at outspoken people due to voicing out their pains had made people into sadist and psychopath.
It is a disability not to be emotional at all and sometimes it is heritable. Although, it does not change the fact that too much of everything is bad. Just like when you are too extreme in religion, you totally lose the will and likewise the way.
We can’t totally blame some people in their attitude towards life if not their background. Many of them grow up not to be loved but to survive and they cultivate that same habit and live by it. Any course in life to meet someone who totally differs from their way of thinking is a threat to them and they see it as being childish.
Do you know that the world would have been able to find solutions to life threatening problems if they look at it from a psychological view than logic, proofing almighty formula?
Life is not to be likened to mathematics and accounting, where two plus two equals four but basic psyche where your mind controls the brain. Don’t be confused about mind controlling the brain because science proof that the heart supplies blood to the brain and that is what makes it function, peradventure lack or shortage of it may lead to paralysis.
Here is what I am driving at; if an impure blood such as blood with high level of cholesterol flows to the brain, it becomes a problem for the brain and when the brain is not functioning well, then that signifies red light which means danger to the entire body. Exactly, how our psyche works when our mind is infected.
What are infections?
When the body get infected with pain as a result of lies, deceit or cheating amongst others, it leads to a disease known as broken heart which manifests as depression, fear, hatred and thereby leading to violence at severe stages and at the extreme; murder.
A very good case is that of Maryam Sandda whom had been reported to be a quiet person by personality but due to pile up of emotions, she got to her peak and lost it. Speaking up is a form of healing and at worst, cry if that makes you feel good. As simple as these may seem, it is not.
People think I have an 'I do not care attitude' which is not true. In real sense, I am more emotional, sensitive than you could ever imagine but find it very easy to deal with pain. Though, it may cost me some tears and writing which is fair. At least, no one gets hurt.

A person needs to accept and belief that he is infected, follows diagnosis and then cure.
How do you find out if you are infected is the next question here?
The only way this could be done is through self-examination, cross-examination and awareness. People may totally be wrong about you but at least give them a chance to make their opinion of you by listening to them. There is sense in nonsense just like an art. Many people do not make sense of a good artwork except those that know it.
Exactly my point!
Exactly my point!
We need to be aware!
To be continued in part two of this letter…
Before then, ponder if you are willing to be diagnosed and ready to heal. Only through self awareness and healing of the mind can we totally find peace within our soul. Humor me! This is the same procedure to finding real happiness and God’s consciousness.
To those who have lost the will to live and love...
