August 27, 2023 – Happy 40th Birthday to Me!

They are exactly two years and one month old today, so we are going to celebrate their birthday.

Oops… Yes, that’s true—they turned two years old just one month ago. But today, one month later, what’s most important is that it’s their babah’s 40th birthday.

Thank you, Allah, for all the blessings you have bestowed upon me.

People say that life begins at 40. While that might be true due to stability in life and financial strength, our true journey starts the moment we enter this world. A special shout-out to all the mothers out there. Our deeds are counted from the beginning, not just after we reach 40, by the way.

Age is often said to be just a number, and I agree. However, the more numbers we accumulate, the closer we come to the inevitable end. May Allah bless our lives in this world and the hereafter.

Wishing myself a happy 40th birthday!
