Me Wish for Amie

Me Dear Amie,

We have discussed this over breakfast a few months ago, if you still remember, on what me hope you will be doing one day. The task at hand is no small matter for a fighter (a "Jundu"!) like you - only that in this case, your weapon of choice is not the sword but the mighty Pen or your Blog!!.

Me have seen your growing up years from when you were just a small and utterly helpless baby to a fine and pleasing young man you are nowadays. In all those years, me could not but noticed that you have this special gift - a knack to write and tell stories about things, either from your own imaginations or fantasies or recollected from yours or others real life experiences, told in a style that is too pertinently all your own.

Thus, me have this uncanny feeling that one day you will no doubt become a prolific writer and me hope that you will use your special talent to enlighten our people and the society at large through your writings. And to become a writer with a specific mission - to be the instrument or tool for others to share and to understand the simple truth about life as portrayed by our belief as Muslims, together, put in a plain and simple language that any layman can understand your lucid style.

Me Amie, do remember, everyone loves stories, that is why your flair as a story teller will go a long way to assist you to accomplish your extraordinary mission. A plot with a good story will be more "palatable" and effective as a conduit for your messages if it is dexterously penned down and blended exquisitely with the plot. But me is neither a professor nor a writer and in no way qualified to give you any further guidance, so the style you are to develop would entirely be yours to espouse and your audience to judge.

Me hope you will one day, through your training as an engineer and as a lifelong religious student, be able to communicate and simplify the many complex modern world problems into easy bits that we can all digest and understand in order to bring us closer to God. Me can foresee that the challenges to come in your times would be more myriad and maybe more "out of this world" in nature altogether, so me truly wish that you will be very well prepared and equipped in order to be able to decipher the many hidden messages in the many things happening around us and conveyed them adroitly in your works so that people will learn lessons from them and not going astray. And ideally, everybody will live in this world happily ever after blessed by God - after reading through your epic stories.

Go and reach for the stars me Amie...Me prayers and doas are all for you to succeed in this world and the hereafter....May Allah be always with you all the way.........

Ameen..........
