A good conversation.

The profit of a good conversation is something learned and betterment initiated.

One of the attributes of a successful person, is that he is able to turn away from "vain talk" That is, conversations that are idle - and brings no benefit whatsoever.  Worse if the conversation brings harm to ourselves or to others (as in backbiting or spreading rumours).

I want to say more - but I think you can figure out for yourselves what constitutes a good conversation and what is not.

Solitude

Solitude

To be alone.

But not lonely.

To withdraw 

But not from one's self.

To be secluded

But not from one's inner thoughts.

To be isolated

But not from one's heart. 

To retreat

But not from God.

To reflect upon and to nourish

The soul.

..... (because silence can be poetic too)

.....

I want to make a leave application
A month or two long
From all the positions I'm holding
From being me.
I don't want to see anyone
I don't want to do what I must do
Other than my duties to God
Other than for God
…..
…..
…..
…..
But,
…..
Being a wife is also a sacred duty
Being a daughter, a mother and being me.
…..
…..
…..
…..
Or maybe I can do what Abraham A.S had to do
Be silent for three days
For a different reason of course
For peace and tranquility if I may
…..
…..
All these wishful thoughts,
I think I will do my solat.
~ Madame Blossom ~
*Solat, is a Muslim prayer act, with a defined set of body positions and recitations.

Fire and Ice

By Robert Frost

 

Some say the world will end in fire,

Some say in ice.

From what I’ve tasted of desire

I hold with those who favor fire.

But if it had to perish twice,

I think I know enough of hate

To say that for destruction ice

Is also great

And would suffice.
