Ephemeral contentment August 8, 2008
Posted by Riz in Uncategorized.trackback
Hectic months have passed me by, and more hectic ones look straight in the eye. I have reached the top-most rung of my 5 year long climb only to realize it is the bottom-most of the one above. Yes, the life as an MBBS student is done…the title “Dr” is ever so close to my name. With great power comes great responsibility (says Spiderman) but that’s an article for another day.
The last day of exams began just like all the others had. I had received my daily booster dose of confidence. Heard the beautiful voice singing out words of encouragement. The day was a bright sunny one and life, it felt, was finally getting a sigh of relief.
Hours clocked by. tick-tock, tick-tock and, after what felt like an eternity, I walked out of my final viva. As i closed the door behind me, a smile started creeping upon my face…I was being filled up by a sense of satisfaction, a feeling of completion, a joyous sensation since there were no more barriers. I could finally grab my reward; see the person I’ve been dying to meet. My patience had paid off.
Oh! How wrong I was!
There I was, still taking the first few steps away from the office when I slipped my hand in search of my mobile to turn it on…to spread the joy, to scream in delight…and in came a message that took it all away. Suddenly, all that joy was replaced by sorrow, the delightful scream turned out to be an ‘Oh God NO!’ Within seconds my head, from being held high up, came hanging down in despair…my foot steps paced down and I had to hold onto the rail to stop from falling down the staircase. The bright sunny day had just become a cold windy night.
So I write not today with a celebratory tone, I write today to tell you ‘I miss the fights, I miss the jokes. I miss the daily Goss, I miss the sweet laughter. I miss the “shut ups” and I miss the “get outs”. I miss troubling you over silly things and I miss getting jealous over others when it comes to you. I miss those long talks and I miss those “perfect timings”. I miss the wonderful you.’
If you all have come up till here then read the following few lines with me before you click away into another website.
‘O Allah! Let not illness befall the ones I love before it befalls me. Let not death welcome the ones I love before it welcomes me. O Allah! Let no more calamity pass over the ones I love, let not Your trial weaken them but make them rise from it stronger and better. O Allah I seek refuge with You from the trials and afflictions of life and death. O Allah, you are Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.’

*sniff * sinff its kinda true when ur having a good time, bad memories haunt u. during stress, fun times come back. sometimes, u meet strangers, who do a small thing and live in ur brains forever. at few occasions, people staying with u for ages take away everythign with them. this is weird, but this is life yaar well shud say you have great talent. I wish I had that kind of talent. Oh, and I also admire my sugar plum too!

Salam bro, I’m glad to see that you’ve updated your blog : ) well this one moved me enough to make me write this,I havnt seen anyone who exhibts so much excitement and yet keep so much undercovered pain..u r strong! masha allah
and sometimes things like this allow you to communicate with your loved ones like never before..through the weakness of both of you..
perhaps it needed this much suffering in order for you to be able to spend time..and communicate..even if it was silent..
I cannot imagine how difficult it must be for you To go thru all this.. may everyone’s prayers will unite for her to recover fast and be able to share happy moments again with all you..ameen!Have faith and
Be strong

its ironic that life sometimes brings sadness with the best of times… when after months of hard work n sacrifice, you reach the top.. only too see the floor beneath yu disappear… well i’m sure with all the prayers (really really really nice prayer btw), shez bound to get well soon… and that the bright sunny sunshine you were waiting for, will lighten up ur golden hearts …. and put a permenant beam on ur faces….
