    أحمد خيري العمري
    “رمضان كما هو معروف للعامّة، هو شهر الصّيام
    لكن الّذي يحدث..الاستدارج نحو فريضة أخرى:

    الصّلاة..

    وذلك من روعة الفخّ المنصوب بإحكام

    سأحكي عن النهر، إنّه يظلّ صبوراً هادئاً، يمضي في طريقه
    وهو لا يبهر كثيراً عند النّظرة الأولى مثل البحر
    لكنه يتسلل إلى داخلك بهدوء وبالتدريج
    والعلاقة معه ليست حبّاَ جارفاً من النظرة الأولى، بل تكون علاقة ود تبنى عبر التراكم..

    النّهر ذكّرني بحديث رسول اللّه صلّى اللّه عليه وسلّم:
    (أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَوْ أَنَّ نَهْرًا بِبَابِ أَحَدِكُمْ يَغْتَسِلُ مِنْهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ، هَلْ يَبْقَى مِنْ دَرَنِهِ شَيْءٌ؟ قَالُوا: لَا يَبْقَى مِنْ دَرَنِهِ شَيْءٌ، قَالَ: فَذَلِكَ مَثَلُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ، يَمْحُو اللَّهُ بِهِنَّ الْخَطَايَا)

    والتّشبيه صحيح إلى درجة الإعجاز!
    فعلاقتنا بالصّلاة لا حبّ صاعق من النّظرة الأولى
    ولكن علاقة ود ومودة ورحمة ، يزيدها الزّمن متانة وقوّة وحكمة


    ستؤدّي خمس صلواتٍ في اليوم لشهر كامل، وهذا يعني ألف سجدة!

    نهر جار عذب بباب دارك!
    ، وأقول لك:
    خذ نفساً عميقاً واغطس!”
    أحمد خيري العمري, الذين لم يولدوا بعد

    Jonathan Safran Foer
    “She let out a laugh, and then she put her hand over her mouth, like she was angry at herself for forgetting her sadness.”
    Jonathan Safran Foer, Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close

    Alysha Speer
    “Laugh, even when you feel too sick or too worn out or tired.
    Smile, even when you're trying not to cry and the tears are blurring your vision.
    Sing, even when people stare at you and tell you your voice is crappy.
    Trust, even when your heart begs you not to.
    Twirl, even when your mind makes no sense of what you see.
    Frolick, even when you are made fun of. Kiss, even when others are watching. Sleep, even when you're afraid of what the dreams might bring.
    Run, even when it feels like you can't run any more.
    And, always, remember, even when the memories pinch your heart. Because the pain of all your experience is what makes you the person you are now. And without your experience---you are an empty page, a blank notebook, a missing lyric. What makes you brave is your willingness to live through your terrible life and hold your head up high the next day. So don't live life in fear. Because you are stronger now, after all the crap has happened, than you ever were back before it started.”
    Alysha Speer

    John Green
    “Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book. And then there are books like An Imperial Affliction, which you can't tell people about, books so special and rare and yours that advertising your affection feels like betrayal”
    John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

    “When you grow up as a girl, it is like there are faint chalk lines traced approximately three inches around your entire body at all times, drawn by society and often religion and family and particularly other women, who somehow feel invested in how you behave, as if your actions reflect directly on all womanhood.”
    M.E. Thomas, Confessions of a Sociopath: A Life Spent Hiding in Plain Sight
