Ekla Chalo Re & It's Okay!

In the soft, early light of dawn, Salima wakes up, stretches, and lets out a small, contented sigh. As she sits up, she pauses for a moment to say a silent thank you for the new day. "Every moment is a chance to remember, to be thankful," she muses to herself, a gentle smile playing on her lips.

She walks over to her small window, pushing it open to let the fresh, cool air fill her room. "Dhikr isn't just for when you're sitting down with beads in your hand," she tells the chirping birds outside. "It's in every breath, every step, every word... It's a 24/7 thing, you know?"

As she prepares her morning tea, Salima reflects on her journey of surrender. "To truly surrender," she whispers to the steam rising from her cup, "is to find joy in the rain, beauty in the dusty roads, and lessons in the trials."

Today, like every day, she chooses to see the world not as a series of obstacles but as a path lined with opportunities to remember, to be grateful, and to surrender to the flow of life. "The world is full of signs, if only we choose to see them," she says, stepping out into the day with a heart full of peace.
