What a girl wants

I want a snowboard! And everything that comes along with it to get myself back on the trails, inshaAllah! That means a set of everything, the board, bindings, boots, goggles, and the proper snow-attire for such a cool sport.

It has been quite a few years since I boarded, but man, is it fun! I can still feel the rhythm in my body when I think about when I used to board, I know that if I get the opportunity to tackle a mountain again I will get back into the swing easy (like riding a bike). InshaAllah.

What better way to celebrate being freed from the chains by soaring free through the air?
I believe I can fly...

To board is so exhilirating, and especially when making jumps (none of which I have ever landed on my feet) it's AWESOME, being in the air and soaring for a long moment feels really good...

I believe I can touch the sky...

...but it sure has repercussions on the glutus maximus, so I really need to learn how to land, lol.

Can you see me now? I can see it.

I believe I can soar...

And if I get all the stuff to board, I'll just add my niqab and a larger sized abaya to accomodate all the extra padding, and off I goooooo....

I also want a husband. A good one this time - devout, sticking close to Allah's laws, and the sunnah, who will guide me well and not astray. And who will teach me - a REAL man. InshaAllah.

I wonder which one I will get first?? *wink, wink*

Salaams Sis:

You're kidding right (about getting married again so soon)?

I recommend the snow board :)

LOL

Saffiyah my reaction is the same.

Oh Mumina! I am happy to hear you are on the mend spiritually and emotionally! Self regeneration after a failed marriage is such a special time, where you will learn so much about yourself (im speakin' from experience).

I dread giving out advice, but since htis is apublic post, ill just share my thoughts:

Focus on the snowboard. You are just breaking free, and it probably isnt wise to go into another marriage yet.

Thats just my hunble opinion.

I think your desire to snowboard again is really telling of where youre at in your life right now.

Be free! Be free!

Hugs,

Salaams Mumina:

Please email me your phone number again. I thought that it was in my caller ID. I was going to call you and couldn't find the number (whaaaaaa)

I will call you, Insha Allah, as soon as you get the number to me.

Assalamualaikum,

Stumbled upon your blog and read a couple of entries. Masha'Allah, you have been and still very much am going through a lot. Insya'Allah, may you and your daughters receive limitless blessings from Allah S.W.T.

For the record, go with the snowboard first. Far easier to obtain.:)

W'salam,
