It was Gibran who said, In only one drop of water are found all the secrets of the ocean.  What a privilege it is for the drop deemed worthy of such an honor. How proud it must feel to be entrusted with such glorious distinction..
But it must also be exhausting for a single drop to harbor confidences of such vast proportion. 
Does it yearn to relinquish its burden and flow freely amongst it's kind unencumbered? I wonder... Or perhaps the noble task of safeguarding the ocean's treasures has become a vital part of it's very existence...

I don't know, but I find myself fascinated.

It's Cliched.

But these are the happiest days of my life. There's no one particular reason.. don't have much of a reply for everyone around me who remarks on it. Can't explain it, just feel it.. not on the surface but inside.. like soul deep.  Feels like I waited a lifetime to experience this. Know it's probably my perspective that's changed more than anything, but I'd swear its contagious. 
Sometimes, part of me wishes I could bottle it in case I need it later.. spray it on like perfume when I feel like I need it. Or spray it on my loved ones and people I care about who I feel need it.
Another part of me wants to possessively guard it. Protect it from anyone or anything that threatens it. I know, silly, right..?   
Then I just laugh at myself, and thank Allah (swt) for the blessings in my life. 

Life is good, Alhamdullilah
