nikmah.


While Najah and I were walking back from Mandarin Class yesterday evening, God decided to bless us with the sight of a beautiful sky. Of course, beautiful skies are subjective. But yesterday's was particularly mesmerizing.

It's not that breathtaking on camera as compared to when you SEE it with your own eyes. On top of us, the azure colour was bright and it faded into a lighter hue. The CLOUDS, MashaAllah, were practically decorations with different shapes and sizes- we had a short discussion on stratus and cirrus clouds. I guess my imagination for "Oh-what-does-that-cloud-look-like??" has dimmed ever since studying worms and ascaris (which all has the similar longish tube structure).

We walked all the way back to our apartment with our heads up. We spotted the moon! But most of all, we were filled with wonder and amazement. It was a lovely day. Thank you Najah for being there to share the moment- the nikmah- with me:)

"Look around yourselves
Can't you see this wonder
Spreaded infront of you
The clouds floating by
The skies so clear and blue..."

Sweet article and lovely picture. Is Nikmah an Arabic word? If so, perhaps you mean something else.
