ذكر الله

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته 
its really been long since i last posted i think that's the way its gonna be.
the topic today came to my mind yesterday while i was reading Quran and when i read this Aya: 

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تُلْهِكُمْ أَمْوَالُكُمْ وَلَا أَوْلَادُكُمْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ ۚ وَمَنْ يَفْعَلْ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْخَاسِرُونَ
this Aya made me stop and think

i was telling myself its not only my kids or money who are drifting me away from Thikr its my PHONE its really my social apps like whatsapp, instgram... etc. 
and since i dropped the kids to school all what i have been doing is surfing these apps until i thought its boring why don't i pray duha and read a little Quran and SubhanAllah this Aya really made me think and today Alhamdulillah i managed to start my day with duha and Quran then now its time for the internet
well for the past few years every time a new app gets in trend i get addicted to, makes me busy and away from cleaning and organizing and making useful things like being a creative mom who does crafting with her kids that's what i want to be. this is what all moms should be in these days unlike what mostly of us do like drop them to school think of a place to have breakfast with friends, instgraming wasting time.
its much better if we start by praying duha, reading Quran, then some educational books, then organizing the cupboards everyday choose a thing to organize at home this way you wont feel time is wasted at least some other days visit your grandmother who's alone and waiting for someone to pass, its great to have breakfast with friends too between time to time , change your routine.
i've bought several books few months ago and tried to manage my time, i find it useful and refreshing 
and currently im reading David & Goliath by Malcolm Gladwel its a good book 
our time and age is passing and we will be asked about it 
so let us use our time so Wisley and most importantly 
keep your Prayers, morning & noon Athkar, sunan, ThekrAllah always in the priority of your schedule. 
to gain great life with great deeds InshaAllah.
that's it for today hope ill write a new post soon.
