I need to be in a calm, cheerful state of mind to be able to be inspired. Or else I just watch cartoons until the moment has passed. I don't try to force inspiration, I allow it to come naturally and in it's own time. (less)

I get to explore and think and and generally say things that others are afraid to explore and say. I get to be myself and whoever i choose to be in that moment.(less)

Why I Decided To Change My Name

Journey From Faheemah To Mi'ran

The great Haruki Murakami once said, "Such wounds to the heart will probably never heal. But we cannot simply sit and stare at our wounds forever".

The decision to change my name was not sudden. It was something I dreamt about since I was a little girl. It was something I always wanted to do but never knew I could or even if I was allowed or if my parents would al Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Mi-ran Isaacs  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The darkness in me could not stand the light any longer. It wanted to escape, vanish without a trace to a place where it could not be seen. But I could not let it happen; I could not let it run, I’m giving it no choice. It was going to ride itself out and face the truth it doesn’t want to know. It was to face itself in the mirror of hope, of despair. I gave the darkness no choice. It was to turn back into the light.”
Faheemah Isaacs, A Warrior's Heart

“You always had a choice. You just never made the right ones.” A voice said to me. “You always had a choice. No matter what anyone says or tells you to do, look to yourself what’s inside of you is stronger than any spell. There is no blame even though it is easy to blame others. We are broken each and every one of us but it is that place that is broken where the light shines through. To see the light in the world you have to see darkness as well, for light shines brightest when there is darkness. And darkness always makes way for the light. We have to humble our darkness that resides in us. We have to silence our appetites so our true power can rise. Only when we can silence our minds can we harness our true potential. ‘No one’s ever needed to do it as much as you do. This is your moment, believe in yourself. There is never anything to fear.”
Faheemah Isaacs, A Warrior's Heart

“I try hard to look at that girl in the mirror,
To tell her not to give up.
Maybe if she had a better image of herself
she wouldn’t be so lost in her illusions.
Maybe if she had a better image of herself
she wouldn’t give society a chance to name her.
Maybe if she had a better image of herself
she wouldn’t give herself another name.”
Faheemah Isaacs, A Warrior's Heart
