When I was a child, the word change for me was limited to
changing into clothes, wearing a white fancy frock was forever a bliss to me.
Over time, change was a concept I learned whilst studying the forms of matter;
when solid melted into liquid, and liquid boiled into gas, the trickiest of all
was when solid directly sublimed into a gas. Time passed by, and my world
revolved around change. Change your grades, change your handwriting, change
your ambitions, change your choices, change your laptop, change your phone,
change your habits, change your friends, change your thinking, change your
priorities, overall please change yourself because this world around you is changing
and you have to fit in this world; we know we have to change into soil
definitely but this whole cycle of change should conquer myself and all of us;
from S5 to S6, from Nadia Hussain to Shahid Afridi, and we are waiting to wear
a brand launched by Reham Khan as well in the near future, admit it or not. However,
in this rapidly changing game the world is going through, I am bewildered with
the one and only thought that promises not to change at all. The thought that
the Holy Quran is not meant to change and it will never change. And you will
never change unless you resonate your thinking with this Divine Book. You will
come out of the paradigm of change and only stability will conquer you only if
you seriously beg for this change to come into you. You have to plead to Him
and you have to cry in the nights only for Him to experience this change. Finally,
when you go through this change, you will realize it is not about change in the
first place, it is only about Him. The biggest threat to change is expectations
and the biggest hope to fulfill your expectations comes from the people around
you. It is when you vest your hopes into the creation when you acquire the
ropes of change. But always remember, expecting from others is like expecting
the world to change for you, and you will only change yourself in this process,
creating a dissonance between your inside and out, questioning the world what
is it up to. The truest form of change is purely divine in nature. Change is
something you will experience all alone. It is going to come from the extremes
of emptiness inside of you. It is going to come when you are totally embarrassed
of all kinds of changes you have embraced all your life. It is through this
change when you will actually see the blessings in disguise, and a big
challenging test in your most beautiful blessings. Change is a painful process to find the
unchangeable, and once you go through it, you would be overwhelmed with tears
of joy.
