Salam alaikum (from Johanna), I was raised Sunni but became Shia 2 years ago :)

Salam alaikum (from Johanna), I donated my hair in September 2011 to Locks of Love for children stricken with cancer. I plan on doing it again and I'm growing my hair right now to donate.

Salam alaikum, I was 24 when I got married, but unfortunately I don't have children, I suppose that is what Allah planned for me.

Throw Out The Costume Jewelry
shia_from_texas replied to ~Zee Zee~'s topic in Social/Family/Personal
I actually make some jewelry as a hobby :) -
Salam alaikum (from Johanna), I have to agree with you. It is true, sometimes whenever you look at your mother and her experience, you really become fearful that maybe your life would turn out the same way. My parents did not allow me to get married till I graduated from college. The reason was my parents always said that I needed my education in case something happens in the future and I had to take care of myself with no husband. They were right. In my case, I was determined to not have my mother's life and so I married a man that I thought would be good to me, etc. I was very young and naiv

Lending Small Amount Of Money
shia_from_texas replied to neotherios's topic in Social/Family/Personal
Salam alaikum (from Johanna), I actually feel embarrassed if someone tries to pay me back for a small amount and if they are a really good friend, I feel embarrassed if it is a big amount. However, I always pay back the amount if I borrowed it whether it is big or small. I suppose it is like Allahuakbar said, it is a topic that has very hazy boundaries socially. Money does complicate relationships like friendships. -
Are You Closer To Your Mother's Side Of Family?
shia_from_texas replied to Propaganda_of_the_Deed's topic in Off-Topic
But my question is, what do you do if they (your relatives) don't want to keep in touch with you? What choice do you have then? -

Then I'm really interested because the new voice will be different, a new character, maybe they are likable, maybe not, but it shows your strength as a writer to change. Keep it up, you have obviously been gifted by Allah. -

I really hope that when you get your novella published, I would get a chance to read it. I like the way you stylized the character of Beni, you made me like him right away. You have a lot of talent, mash'Allah. -

shia_from_texas replied to Aqua's topic in Off-Topic
I honestly think that it can turn into something bigger, but the fact that it is a short piece of fiction makes it interesting because you, as the reader, want to know more about this person. The piece leaves you wanting more which is great. -

Wow, you are really creative, mash'Allah! You really have to keep writing because I can see this piece turning into a book. I'm a writer too :) -
Are Some People Called To Be Single?
shia_from_texas replied to OneNoteSong's topic in Social/Family/Personal
Well, you must understand that at the time I was Sunni. I only became Shia in 2010, that was only 2 years ago. So, the people that I met who were like me at the time were of Egyptian-American or Canadian heritage and they were not really what you'd call Allah fearing people. I was looking for someone who was of Egyptian descent because I wanted my mother to be happy. I met successful men, but their religion was a joke and they were corrupt. There was one for example, that thought I was backwards and unsophisticated because I didn't approve of his wine tasting parties. Suffice it to say, I had
