I am a truth seeker. I am kind, sensitive, and caring, God loving, God fearing(as, in awe of), and God following, completely submitted to His will, not my own(at least doing my very best to be, sometimes my own will tries to get in His way). I am open-minded, open to discussion, unwilling to hide truths, and courageous when it comes to my Lord. I take little offense, as there is no offense to be had just because someone has a different view. I am hurt when people misunderstand me personally, and accuse me unjustly. I would like to see greater understanding in the world and less contention. I think the Buddha followers get this right. I believe they are the exhibitors of what it means to be humble, accepting, and unpresuming... only seeking the inner peace which they know as God. I think the message that Jesus brought was in many ways similar to the message of Buddha which came centuries before. I think God tries in many ways to reach His people. So you see I have many beliefs. I believe there are good and bad in all peoples across the face of the earth. I do not believe that evil can be banished completely from any one entire group of people. 'for every force there is an equal and an opposite force' 'yin and yang'  + and - Without those where would the balance be? The laws of physics... the laws which made the universe, according to the hand of the Creator. All life is energy. I think we all have to seek our own path, that God gives us the free will to do just that... that He wants us to come to Him freely. If it is not given freely and with the heart, it is not true Love, it is a token love. Such love will not suffice for the kingdom of heaven. Now everyone knows a little more about me. As I think of it I will probably add more. I usually do have more to add upon reflection, and I always reflect and seek God's voice in everything I do. I would like to find our common ground so that we may all come into enlightenment and foil the devil's plans. may peace come to the world

I would welcome a discussion here. It would be less confusing than jumping to another thread. Do you think it would be allowed?  Thanks for the warm welcome. (Uh, and for putting up with me too  ) |

Hi Nausheen, We never got around to having that other conversation. Now I am curious to know what it might have been? Salaam, Caringheart |

Hey there Caringheart. I feel you and you are very genuine and I love your intro. I have a similar perspective in many ways. I liked what you say about Jesus and Buddha. In Buddhism they have this saying: "If you meet Buddha on the path, kill him!" What that means is not to idle worship the messenger. What is interesting is that even though Buddhism does not have a religious ideology that focasses on God Almighty, Buddhists can connect to God Almighty through their practice of Meditation and can acknowledge what other religions are on about on this, but without being dogmatic because you need to have an ideology about God Almighty to be dogmatic! And this fits in with the Yin Yang thing you mentioned. I just joined up today and am looking forward we can have many constructive discussions on this forum. I also pray that there are many many others on this forum who have your caring genuine goodhearted nature. I have been on other forums in the past but have eventually left because certain people can be too intent on trying to convert me, or just being an obnoxious troll. Let God Almighty convert people to the religion they feel most comfortable with. |

"As I think of it I will probably add more."
It is in my nature to not want to be offensive to anyone It is also in my nature to speak the truth to ask questions and to seek I have sought the nature of, and to know God, since I was a young child. I pray because I am moved to do so, not commanded to do so I pray all through the day because I feel that is what I am called to do... called to do... not told to do. 23 Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence. (Colossians 2) I do not keep count. I do not need to be reminded. I am in continual communion with my God throughout the day, through prayer. Through speaking to my God and trying to be still to hear His voice so He also may speak to my heart. ~ Show me your ways that I may walk with You the cry of my heart is to love You more to live with the touch of your hand stronger each day show me Your way ~ (just realized I forgot to give credit. These words are from a song I often listen to, called Show me Your Ways. Whenever I use these ~ marks it is to indicate lyrics. )------------- Let us seek Truth together Blessed be God forever "I believe in Jesus as I believe in the sun... not because I see it, but because by it, I see everything else.: - C.S.Lewis |

Thankyou for your welcome, Caringheart. Keep going with this thread like it is your own personal blog and I might do the same thing with mine. You never know, it might catch on with others doing similar.  |

So funny you said that because I was just searching for that very thing yesterday... a place where I could read muslim blogs. I think we would get to know one another much better that way. I keep a blog at Xanga which is wonderful for interaction and sharing of ideas. |

| Hello Caringheart, I'm new here and feel exactly as you do! I just wrote an introduction of myself, so I won't repeat it all here; just wanted to say hello, and glad to meet others (here and anywhere!) who are open minded and feel similarly about things. Hope you are doing well! |

We came from near of Allah and his spirit is in our existence . We will return near him at last .but how???this is real question. We r responsible for our works and must reply to him. He put us as his substitute in this world .we must act good .reason of life ,accessing satisfaction of Allah. End goal ,going near to him .Allah never wants our help .he is special . we only need to him .our life is a gift for us (a fortune for finding him and understanding him no only doing daily works such as :living ,working and�). All ways start with his name and ends with his name and help. We are wretched creatures without him .we don�t select our birth but we select our way .may be this way guide us to heaven or guide to hell. Our friends and selections are more effective in this way .be careful about them. all people hate from lie, steal and� .we can accept rights .may be it be very painful to us but we cant tolerant lie. When we rely to Allah ,our heart says calmly :Don�t fear because every thing will be better .this is not far. Allah wants the best for us . Ya Allah. we
must like every one and imagine all of them are kind and good. remember every
thing is nice and good. This causes you be happy because you believe that there isn�t any worse in the world. We can be happy only with watching a nice flower and smelling it. No by having a garden full of flowers .we can be happy when we ride a bicycle .it is not necessary that we have an expensive car. We
can enjoy from eating a piece of bread .imagine
it is the best food in the world that some people cant find it for eating. Be
thankful from Allah. It is not necessary that we eat our food at the best restaurant. Sometimes when we share our food with some one or only one animal ,we are happy. and We
don�t want to change this state with any thing. When
we see an hungry child became full with our food ,we be happy. Maybe we be hungry too but we prefer that he be full and we can sleep with
calm at night. Share your goods with others and give more and expect less. be certain that you can attain your lost things ,again. More than the first deal .if you borrow something be certain you can attain more than it in the future. When you see that your worker is in bad state of life ,you can pay much money to him .be certain you will attain more than it. Salam,
caring heart . I put my words for u as a
gift from a muslim friend . be luck in ur search and find the best way . ------------- i try to say only facts |

"Photographer J�n Hilmarsson had braved the Icelandic cold to witness the beauty of the Northern Lights many times before, but a recent photo shoot revealed some things he had never seen." I am incredibly moved by this photo. (descending like a dove) The next one is pretty incredible too... looks very regal, doesn't it?
On Nov. 22, the 35-foot-tall St. Joseph Lighthouse was covered in ice, the earliest photographer Tom Gill can remember seeing this type of freeze. Gill loves being out in the cold, calling his ideal setting 30-degree temperatures and blue skies the day after a storm. (Tom Gill)

I want to say thank you to my muslim friends here. I have learned from you a kinder, gentler, way of communication which I now take with me to all forums. I have learned the importance of polite salutations, and that they go a long way towards friendly communication. I am very grateful to have learned this from my muslim friends.
