About Me

"There is nothing worthy of worship but God!" Click Me!There is not much I can say to really describe the real me. I am full of complexities and sometimes I don’t understand my own self. The only things that truly make sense to me in this insane and beautiful world are Islam, my Family and Friends, School, and Caramel Frappucinos, lol. I am a ‘nerd’ at heart when it comes to knowledge, but procrastinate way too much in school. I believe in true love, but not in love at first sight. Hugs and Smiles are always comforting and the idea that diamonds are a girl’s best friend makes me shiver with a mixture of anger and coldness. I love the USA but wish we would all truly take responsibility and improve the injustices of the world instead of buying SUV’s and shopping at Wal-Mart while the exploited behind-the-scenes suffer the dehumanization of materialistic values. Of course I am no angel but just trying to do the best I can. Indifference should be against the law, and smiles mandatory. Flowers are breathtaking, and sunsets ethereal… I am Muslim, I am Mexican, I am American, I am Woman, and I am just me- one girl in the entire world who will turn to dust when the sun has set and as the wind passes by carrying my soul I shall be erased from man’s mind to that limbo of nothingness we ignore, a.k.a. the past.Save The World - One Click At A Time!

My Interests

I enjoy...Reading, Writing, Poetry, Photography, Baking (tho the cleaning up after sucks), Good food with Great Friends, lots of laughs to burn them calories after that good food, and learning as much as I can in this world if only to improve it a little before I am gone.

I'd like to meet:

It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces Towards east or West; but it is righteousness- to believe in Allah and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfil the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic. Such are the people of truth, the Allah-fearing. (The Qur'an, 2:177)A human being is a part of the whole, called by us ‘Universe,’ a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in itself a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security. -Albert EinsteinEveryone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself. -Tolstoy

Life thoughts

It is funny how life turns out.  It's past 2 am.  I have not been able to sleep very well for the past few days so this may be a little incoherent and it may be a little too emotional. ...

What is Islam?

What is Islam? Islam is not a new religion. It is the same truth that God revealed to all His prophets throughout history. Islam is both a religion and a complete way of life. Muslims follow a relig...
