The First Post

Welcome to my blog. I've wanted to get a blog for a while now, because I love to think, and I love to write - sometimes, I have so many thoughts in my mind that I need to write them down to keep them organized. Well, this blog is basically for my own benefit, but if others can benefit from it, then it can only be a good thing.

So who am I? I'm a female muslim living in the West. "Oh no, what am I reading? I need to get out of here," you're thinking. But wait - please stay. The world has been filled with negativity and misconceptions concerning us. This blog is just a collection of my musings about all that, and more. Maybe someone might stumble onto this blog one day, and just maybe I can influence that person to think otherwise. Of course, I could've blogged about a whole myriad of other topics, but then what use would it be? I guess at some time or other, we all have big dreams of doing something, no matter how small, for the world. And this is my tiny attempt to contribute. Too ambitious? Nobody cares? Well, let's see what happens.
