New Years Resolution

  1. I am my mother tongue before I am Muslim.Does the mother tongue precede the father of belief? I may not be well-versed in Tamil, but it means more to me than my religion. It is simply about what connects deeply enough. Prostrating in unison, I feel connected, yes. I feel submitted. Conversing in union, however, is submersion to the very depths.
  2. Give a person a reason to hate and they will. Give them an excuse to judge and they will. I have lost the respect and friendship of people close to me, and it is all my doing. I have been called irresponsible, inconsiderate, and my actions just down right wrong. And yet, I stand by my decisions. I stand by my words, and my actions. I have the courage to stand up to judgement and to face hate.
