The love of god is something that is not measurable. In moments when you think that there is no road ahead you find a door open and you stand in front of a road that never was. Sometimes when we go through rough times we feel that god has abandoned us. More than often we hear that god tests us.
I personally dont know if that is true, Love is always unconditional and it never puts its subject to test.
In the universe which is ruled by cause and effect, we more than often face consequences of our actions. God's grace saves us from our selves' from our understanding and our interpretations.
Bakri eid celebrates the grace of god. It is believed that god asked Ibrahim to sacrifice his ten year old son Ishmael at a alter. Ibrahim not to disobey god readily began his journey with his son and reached the appointed place. Just about as he was going to sacrifice his son in front of him appeared a lamb, God though his grace had spared his son.
The concept of sacrifice is getting lost in our humdrum of our twentieth century lives. We feel that sacrifice is a act for another, but what one does not understand that as we give we often get. This world is not governed only by the practical, materialistic equations that we understand but also by unseen equations of the cosmos, equations which are as complicated as the birth of this universe.
Festivals like Bakri eid let us look into our soul and acknowledge the need to make right those equations which make life a celebration rather than just a existence.
Wishing all you lovely women a very happy Eid and may you shine with god's grace and love.
This year I am in favor of the subtle like the peace that one feels in your heart during prayer.
The style quotient for Eid is classic and eternal. This grey Kota Sari with a flower motiff is just ethereal.
I love the color aquamarine. It truly reflects the calmness of the sea. If you want to make the look pop a little a yellow blouse just lifts the color.
She is one designer who I love @marmaladeskyme has some lovely designs. This sea green sari with gold embroidered flowers is just divine.
The Kantha Sari is subtle yet always makes a statement. If it is a special occasion a silk sari with Kantha work gives you a rich look at the same time is quite subtle.
I am sure beginning to become a fan of the digital print Sari. The satin fabric falls beautifully around you. Team it with string of pearls and you are all set to attend a party. It is advisable that the print is not too crowded. I would recommend a light color.
@chidiyaaonline has some lovely designs and prints. If this Eid you are not in the mood to dress in silks and satin's a simple cotton or Mul sari with block print is simple but yet has a little oomph. This white with red is just perfect for a afternoon lunch.
