Allah is always the best planner

Things never go as planned. Allah has said, "They plot & plan, and Allah too plans; but the best of planners is Allah" (Al-Anfal V.30). I love this verse. It reminds me of the beauty of Allah. You may think you know what is best for you, but in fact.. Allah always knows best.

The event that we have planned for so long when quite smoothly actually, despite the fact that the guest speaker was late. He tried his best, but I guess Allah has said that he will arrive at the time he did. Nevertheless, it was good. Not that I understood any of it - it wasn't my field anyway. But it was good just to hear what he had to say.

I feel so tired. I have a big examination tomorrow. And there is so much more to do. I think I am going to go and get a cup of coffee, sit down and concentrate for the next hour or so.

My other half is on night shift today... I miss having him next to me....
