Goodbye and Thoughts

Al'hamdu'lillah, we will be heading back to America within the next few days, cutting our trip short so that we can have our baby back home, insha'Allah.

We look forward to being reunited with family and friends, although we already miss our close ones here. So the conundrum goes, pointing, as all things do, to something more lasting and permanent than the temporal frustrations of life's tiresome compromises. There is no "having it all," is there? Those who think otherwise often end up in rehab.

So we say goodbye to Jordan, and we pray that Allah allow us to hold fast to what gains He has allowed us, that He forgive us the opportunities that we were too sick to make use of, and that He make firm within us the desire to please Him wherever we are.

Amin
