Someone said not to post about #Gaza here. But I think every space should carry this grief. I’m posting my face because this is personal. It’s #human. What’s happening is #genocide. And silence now isn’t neutral, it’s betrayal.
August 4, 2025 at 2:35 AM
i feel helpless. my friends do too. watching a genocide unfold in real time and not knowing what to do, it breaks something in you. the situation in #Gaza isn’t war. it’s mass murder. silence isn’t neutrality. it’s complicity. if you feel lost too you’re not alone speak up anyway

What’s happening in #Gaza is not war. It is genocide. Deliberate. Public. Unfolding in real time.
Starved families. Bombed children. Erased bloodlines.
This is not complicated.
It is mass murder.
Look away or speak up.
Silence is complicity.

History is unfolding before us, and too many stand on the wrong side—silent, complicit, or indifferent…

In just six days, on 3/20, Nowrooz arrives with the spring equinox. Winter fades, making way for spring’s grand entrance Pink and white blossoms announce renewal, and God knows we need it—both literally and metaphorically—as darkness lingers in power, and #justice, like spring, fights to bloom again

went for a walk in the drizzling rain today—it was magnificent. for a moment, the rain paused, the sun broke through, and i captured this photo. life is like the seasons—ups & downs, light & dark. but every dusk makes way for dawn. this too shall pass. #gratitude #hope

Family Separation Leaves Lifelong Scars
If we claim to value family and believe in the sanctity of the home, then we must reject policies that tear families apart.

Self-compassion reduces stress, prevents burnout, and fosters emotional balance in daily life.

This year, no resolutions—just kinder promises. I’ll fight injustice without drowning in it, and I’ll embrace “good enough” over perfection. A new chapter, new ways of living, and finally, working for myself. Here’s to growth in 2025. ✨ #SelfCompassion

How can we remain silent as the Israeli army abducts Dr. Hussam, a doctor sworn to save lives? This is not just an attack on one man but on medical neutrality, justice, and humanity itself.
Doctors: your silence is deafening. Speak out. Strike. Protest. Demand his release

May 2025 be a year of peace—a year to end violence, rebuild bridges, and amplify justice. May it bring a free Palestine, an end to Gaza’s genocide, justice for Afghan women, and healing for all lands scarred by war.

Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, Gaza doctor who stayed with patients after losing his son to a drone strike, was arrested by Israeli forces. His courage silenced, his story a warning: targeting healthcare workers is a war crime. Silence = complicity. The world must act. #Gaza #WarCrimes

28 years ago, I arrived in Toronto, a child bride in an unfamiliar world. Snow fell heavy, the air smelled of coffee, and I felt lost. Every Christmas Eve, I remember that night. I’m well now, but my thoughts are with women still searching for their way forward. #MerryChristmas

Khaled Nabhan, soul of my soul, carried grief with dignity—a father, grandfather, and giver of hope in Gaza’s ruins. They killed him, but Khaled was never just one life. He was Gaza’s pulse, a witness, a reminder: love endures. His people mourn, but they rise. #KhaledNabhan #Gaza

Without access to safety or stability, an entire generation is growing up in fear and uncertainty, caught in a conflict they did not choose but will bear the cost of.

I’m honored to share my latest piece with Ms. Magazine, where I explore the heartbreaking impact of war on children.
This is not just a story of statistics—it’s about the human cost of conflict and the resilience of young lives caught in the crossfire.
