There are no coincidences.
Am sitting here listening to the call to prayer. My children are asleep in the next room. The sounds of his words and their breath, melodies to my ears.
In a day I once more have to say goodbye to my youngest son. In two weeks take my daughters to visit their grandparents in UAE for the very first time. My ex doesnt want to give me custody of our 5 year old son, though by law here he should be mine till age 7, then chooses for himself where he wants to be. Islamic law dictates my daughters are now supposed to go to the custody of the grandparents and uncle in UAE that they've never met.
It's ironic. I used to say I'd bleed for my children. Give my life and world for them. I've been in and out of specialist hospitals now for over a month with what they have decided is 'dysfunctional uterine bleeding'. it's left me physically weak. Most days I sound awful.
I internalize everything. Having been abused, find it hard to outwardly show my frustration or anger. Am frightened of anger. Of it being an expression of loss of control. I think my body decided it would grieve for me.
With others, I continue throwing love at unloving people and circumstances. I'd like to believe all people and circumstances can be softened by love.
I want to walk a right path. Perhaps an idealist, I believe faith, God, and love will always win. Even if I lose....sometimes.
I prefer to give than to ask. Right now, I ask your prayers. That God give me strength, whatever in His wisdom I am meant to endure, and that if I lose my children, one day He will see they are returned o me.
Listen to the song titled 'Sacrifice' by Lisa Gerrard & Pieter Bourke. It left tears in my eyes.
