“Here’s Looking At You Kid!”- Humphrey Bogart, Casablanca (1942).

Bismillah. It has been a week since i’ve written to you. I think about all sorts of things to write to you and I’m beginning to organize my thoughts slowly.  There are only three quests in life that everyone seeks to perfect.  And we are forever chasing after them. Yet to our demise… we all fail to realize that it is not “Without” them do we feel incomplete but rather in order to feel complete it is found from “Within”.  The three quests are as follows: (Pls understand them.) 

1. SUCCESS (Finance,Net worth, Academic achievement, etc.)

2. HEALTH (Mental, Physical, Emotional, Spiritual)

3. LOVE ( for your Spouse, Children, Parents, Friends, etc.)

I will certainly go into further details for you with each one of these quests.  If each one of these quest were a meter bar; whereby you could measure them in percentages. Almost all of us could put a mark on this meter bar as to what percentage we are per individual quest. 

Realize this, these categories are symbiotic..in order to attain a tranquil life. You must understand that you MUST not neglect any of these quests.  Hence, If your success meter is at 100% with a substantial net worth but you have no one to share it with…ur net worth would be meaningless.  On the flipside, if u are healthy and fit but u are broke; or if you have great relationships but you are suffering from various health challenges.  The combinations are endless.  We are all striving towards perfecting these quests. I will teach you ways to the best of my abilities, insyallah (god willing).  I guess u might ask whether i have perfected any of these quests? Well, i suppose my journey thus far has led me to be more consciously awake and I am very attentive now as to how I live my life and its pursuit.

There is a great secret to all this that I must tell you. There is a great KEY that you MUST find in order to help you with your journey.  You will only find this KEY when you can excercise complete faith, patience and constancy (steadfastness). 

“ Except such as have faith, and do righteous deed and (join together) in the mutual teaching of truth and of patience and constancy. (103:3) Holy Qu’ran

 You must train urself to find this key. For with this KEY will u attain  all that you wish in this life and the next.  I will teach you all this, insyallah.  This Great Key I speak of is none other than “ALLAH swt”.  “God, the Eternal, Absolute.(112:2)”.

For most of us in this life, our relationship with God can also be placed on a meter with a percentage measure.  The higher the percentage in THIS meter, the easier your journey and ur quests, insyallah.

Understand this…that you may chase after these quests of SUCCESS, HEALTH and LOVE. In hopes that once attained that u will feel complete.  The Journey is not meant to be completed and neither will you feel complete.  These quests are for you to strive for with complete balance.  You will attain them only with the key…ALLAH!   These quests are merely gifts to us.  The nice home, a great body and beautiful wife or husband!…They are gifts to us.  Only with faith, patience and constancy will you attain it all.  If I could summarize this concept/science it would be this:

                 ”Seek Allah with complete attention, and these gifts will come to you”.

In the lessons to come I will teach you more, Insyallah! Talk to you soon.

Bismillah. I don’t really know why I decided to choose this title.  Or why I’m choosing to write to you. My goodness, u r not even born yet.  I have been thinking about you alot though.  I have been on a pretty unique journey lately….i guess I thought maybe I would like to share alot of things with you. Gosh, u don’t even have a name yet.  I don’t even know if u’re a boy or a girl?!  Oh God, what if we can’t….? Hmmm………..ok. enough of that.  I will only stick to the present moment.  I have set out to write this blog to you and teach u a few things. The least I could do is begin. This idea of writing to u was not really mine btw.   I was praying one night and the idea of writing to my unborn child came to me out of thin air.  One thing I would like u to know is that I’m a muslim.  I believe that Allah had inspired this thought that I write to you.  It really came out of nowhere.Your uncle put this site together.  I wouldn’t have  clue  on how to put this site like this together.  Not very technologically incline.  To tell u the truth I hate to read instructions….wow “hate” is such a strong word… It is a challenge for me to read instructions.  Gosh I’m rambling already..I dont really know where to begin.  maybe this is as good of a beginning as any for now… Im not the best writer either….but Im willing to learn and give it a go.  talk to u soon.
