My first thought, when I read this question, was What is there not to love? A moment later the answer came to me:  temperature extremes, poisonous snakes, tornadoes, and so on. And yet, we have beautiful... More »

What do you trust most in the world?

Posted on Mar 27th, 2009 by Jamilah : Creative Thinker Jamilah

What is your idea of heaven?

Posted on Dec 14th, 2008 by Jamilah : Creative Thinker Jamilah

The Qur'an speaks with great description about gardens and cooling streams in heaven. Those pictures are soothing, but my best understanding of the peace of heaven comes from C.S. Lewis, whom I read before becoming... More »

What inspires you most about the world?

Posted on Oct 13th, 2008 by Jamilah : Creative Thinker Jamilah

The natural beauty. Our family vacations have been built around this. Gazing at the Grand Canyon. Driving through the haunting wonder of the Badlands while prairie dogs scamper. Stopping at a beach and playing in... More »
