Salam!
Yesterday I watched a really good, and equally depressing movie. It was called Human Trafficking. Oh-my-gosh! Watching that movie proves that I have NOTHING to complain about. Alhamduillah. Seriously.
I'm so sickened by what people do. By how low they stoop to make a measly buck.
I've known about human trafficking for quite a while (wow...and so has everyone else), but each time I watch or hear something about it I just get sick, and depressed. How? How can people do this to other people? Treat them and sell them like cattle??? Demean them in such ways? Feed off their dreams of a better life, because that's what all these other countries promise? Right? A better life.
I cried at the end. I cried because some people really don't have souls. I cried because Allah really is so good to us. I cried because these people steal something from these women and children...dignity, and self-worth.
May Allah forgive and protect us from these evils...ameen.
*deep sigh* Man, what's with the world today. Actually what's with the world period? Historically, presently...gosh I don't want to know about it in the future.
I need to close my eyes. Sometimes I want to run away, and dig a hole where I'll live. But it will a quaint, cute lil hole, where I won't have to hear or see...Nevermind, we all want that.
There's a lot of good too. Alhamduillah.
Now something positive...
I LOVE THE RAIN!
I love how it makes everything so green, and luscious. After the rain, I just like to walk around town, especially in the back where all the old trees tower over you, releasing little droplets on to your face or hair.
I love the smell. A smell no one can really explain, it's just this perfect, natural, fresh smell.
I love how the sun breaks through the clouds, making the droplets glisten on all that they have touched.
I love walking in the tall grass and getting my shoes and pants damp with the rain water.
At nightime it's even nicer, because I love the sound it makes as the water falls to the ground, or hits my window. I can just lay there for hours and listen to it, it's some of the most beautiful music.
And unlike many people I love a thunderstorm. Because I love to hear the thunder, and see the lightning. I love to hear that large crack of thunder (so powerful Subhana'Allah) and then out of no where the rain is falling like a waterfall.
I know that for farmers it makes life harder because to much rain over saturates the ground, but I'm greedy and love it! At least there is color everywhere instead of that dull yellowish-brown that the fields and hills around here seem to take on.
Now a rant! (is this post long yet? lol)
WHY?
WHY do guys have to be so...domestically retarded? I ask that in all seriousness. I can't stand having to pick up after my brothers. I mean, don't get me wrong I know they work hard but puh-lease! JUST PICK UP THE TOWELS!!!!!! Oh, and don't pile up the laudary. AND please follllllld the clothes right away after you take them out of the dryer, don't just let them sit there and get cold. You know why? Because then they get wrinkles!
I am however glad to inform you that I am tackling the laudary quite well, and am not falling behind. Do I get a gold star?
What can I say...that was my five second rant.
Ok go sleep, take care.
