For the Brokenhearted
There are many paths to The Divine. May we embody the most direct one.
Ever since seeing Palestinian children being ethnically cleansed, the Israeli military speaking about “erasing” Palestinian “animals”
and a dear sister sent this action item, I’ve been speechless. Thankfully, my weekly Substack (below) was already scheduled. This is my last Medium post.
The following email is in response to that:
There are matters of the heart that direct words cannot communicate. So, I pulled together some words that come close + glimpses of a new narrative tale that may just bring some relief to the heartache for a moment in this blink of a life. With the broken-hearted in mind, all your favorite soulmate stuff is now in one place made for you and me.
Do you know what today is?
It’s the day we take our stance once and for all. Our brother made plain what my Substack fell short of: “They” don’t change history. “We” do.
While there are many paths to The Divine, we may discover one path that is most direct, with the least winding and curving, through The Living Quran, Prophetic Tradition, and our very own hearts.
I challenge you to push the limits of your brokeness in pursuit of the highest collective good with us. Educate. Make noise for Palestine. Pray for all the oppressed.
See you on Substack,
Maryam
