Sometimes:
- I wish that my children were easy
- I wish that Islam had no history of violence or of killing so that it would just be easier to demonstrate and explain we are peace-loving people. No really, we are! Sometimes I wish wish wish that the Prophet (pbuh) had won against his enemies by nonviolence.
- days never go according to plan
- nothing I ever do is ever right
- I am consumed by sadness
- I am enveloped by happiness
- my cats sleep on my bed and I love it, despite my sore neck and sore back and interrupted sleep
- I have long showers even when I’m not supposed to
- I don’t cook
- I love my boys so much I want to squeeze them
- I’m not in a good mood
What do you do sometimes?


I too wish for bullet 2. It caused me a lot of heartache, headache and confusion.
I wish I hadn’t eaten a slice of the cake
1. I too feel sad
2. I too feel so happy I want to scream!
3. I love my girls so much that I do squeeze them – so hard their backs crack! LOL!!
4. I wish I had the strength and courage to actually say what’s on my mind ….
5. I wish I could come to Australia and finally meet my cousins!!!!
sometimes, i let the babies cry and give myself five minutes so i dont go in there and smack them.
most times, i wish for more patience.
Thanks for the comments, ladies. Achelois – it would just make my life so much easier, wouldn’t it.
Aneesa – so what’s stoppng you from coming?
Mona- you are a great mum with a HUGE amount of patience. Separating yourself from what’s frustrating you is a great way to stop yourself from doing something you will regret later. Good thinking. Lots of hugs xxx
Tassles, what a great, honest post. I hear you on dot 2. There’s a bit in our history I struggle with (women your right hand possesses, anyone? Death for gays, anyone else?)
I sometimes wish it all away. I sometimes want it to last forever.
