"Serenity in Waves"

"...(Such is) the artistry of Allah, Who disposes of all things in perfect order..."
Everybody needs a moment of serenity, a moment to ponder, a moment of utter solitude. After all, the first droplet of the greatest miracle descended upon the Prophet (saw) in his moment of reflection, alone in the cave (Hira) of the Mountain of Light. It is in these sublime moments, that the greatest ideas that could change the course of history or someone's destiny envelop the mind of the passenger. When everything seems congested and cluttered, we seek these moments. In a world of busy streets, both in the literal sense and in the cerebral sense, these moments are rare to find.
I had one of those moments, alhamdulillah, and I found them sitting beside the Mufti beach of Tawi-Tawi one blessed afternoon. There's nothing like the sound of the waves gushing forth as the light reflects from the sea like pearls paving a path. All the background processes of the mind are shut off, and most of the RAM of the brain are freed like an open highway at 3 am. You're just sitting there, but you're not there. The moment is taking you on a trip to a dimension beyond space and time. Just like the waves, in complete submission to its Lord. I am in total awe but in a subtle and profound way. One word comes to mind... mashaAllah!
