Guilted: Wars Against The Past (Editing)
The things I knew that were once unethical, were bound to be saintly. The dreams I dreamt once upon a time, seemed to be an epitome of nightmares. The heart I thought I stole long ago, always belonged to someone else. The crimes I have committed all my life, became a handful of lessons that I ought to learn. The world I looked up to once, became a mortal enemy of mine. The family I thought would disown me, fought my battles for me. The life I never imagined I'd live, sadly it became a life I'd rather live than die. Lastly, the guilt I carried in me for the each and every second of my living, was a poison spreading and gradually banishing everything around me. Clearly, I was bounded by the past! Never have I imagined for the galaxy of guilt in me to steadily transform into a matter of great; Love. No, it wasn't for my dead sister, or for the woman I once claimed to love, or for my money-grubbing father, or even for the woman who was destined for me. Majestically, it was for Someone who I never ever thought it would be for; My Maker. Well, it's mind-blowing how the ugliest of matters bring out the most beautiful of articles! -Guilt is a gift from Allah, warning you that what you are doing is violating your soul.- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Started: 22/12/2017, 7:15 pm.

The Presidential Throne
The choices we make in life often come down to good or bad. Sometimes, though, we don't even get to make those choices ourselves. Looking back on every bad memory I can still recall, every pain I've endured that still feels etched into my flesh, I've come to learn one thing: faith. Faith taught me to survive-for my own sake and my own good. The one thing I feared most was losing my parents. Just the thought of it used to break my heart. I grew up living what many would call "the perfect life." At times, I thought I couldn't survive any life other than the one I had with my beloved parents. They were the two people I grew up loving deeply, without anyone else ever taking their place. Being the daughter of two well-known figures in our country was exciting and full of joy. But the idea that one day I might leave them behind-whether through marriage or other life changes-haunted me. It felt like losing a part of myself. Yet, looking back at everything I've been through, I realize that if those events hadn't happened, I wouldn't be the person I am today. This story is one of revenge, romance, love, hatred, and politics-a reflection of the struggles within our beloved country. Set in the fictional land of Wenturia, this tale will take you on an emotional journey. Check it out, and I promise you won't regret it!
