<p>Im Back and  a work in progress.  A woman on a mission, with a vision. Unsure of what it is, and only  aware of what it is not,once Ive been there.</p>
<p>You know, one of those kids that has to learn things the hard way,   and can&#8217;t just go by what others say or have experienced. I know what I  like, and don&#8217;t like so far.  I know what works and does not work for me  so far.  But I still have a lot to learn, and figure out.</p>
<p>I am very passionate about art. I am very passionate about <a title="Education" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education">education</a>, no  matter how hard I try and push them aside, they keep coming  back. But I  have yet to create a world for myself, that combines the two. Something  in which I can experience, learn and grow from each day.</p>
<p>I want to share that with others, and motivate them to live their  best life, a life that is create for them, by them. But how. I don&#8217;t  know. I&#8217;m a work in progress, bare with me.</p>
<p>Yours truly,</p>
<p>aishaladon</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you know me, than you are aware that I make many changes, and have yet to find a great thing that sticks as far as career goes.</p>
<p>I love <a class="zem_slink freebase/guid/9202a8c04000641f80000000000141ab" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education" title="Education" rel="wikipedia">education</a>, I love <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/learning" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning" title="Learning" rel="wikipedia">learning</a>. But I love art, <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/design" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design" title="Design" rel="wikipedia">design</a>, creating, planning, and organizing as well.</p>
<p>I have a great desire to travel, and experience new things each day.</p>
<p>It looks like such an opportunity has arrived. Inshallah we will see what Allah ( swt) has in store for me this year.</p>
<p>I may have an opportunity to do a bit of travel, and gain some <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/photography" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photography" title="Photography" rel="wikipedia">photography</a> experience, and get paid for it. <a href="http://studiomaxnw.com">Yes, get paid to learn, and travel. </a>My favorite things. Learn, travel, and art.<br />
All wrapped in one nice little package.</p>
<p>We will see what is to come. I  promise to keep you all up to date.</p>
<p>With a flexible schedule, and family support. I will still homeschool the kids, but probably go back to <a href="http://cava.org">CAVA</a>.<br />
We shall see.</p>

<p>Well I am not 100% sure how it will work out. But my plan is to find a job <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/teacher" title="Teacher" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teacher">teaching</a> at a <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/madhhab" title="Madh'hab" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madh%27hab">school</a> in <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/yemen" title="Yemen" rel="geolocation" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=15.35,44.2&amp;spn=10.0,10.0&amp;q=15.35,44.2%20%28Yemen%29&amp;t=h">Yemen</a>. Preferably an <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/islam" title="Islam" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam">Islamic</a> school, but possibly one that teaches <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/english_language_learning_and_teaching" title="English as a foreign or second language" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_as_a_foreign_or_second_language">ESL</a>. But I do not have a certificate, and that would take more time, than I want. I am very impatient about things. When I have my mind made up, I just want to do it. Go ! Lets go, go , go.</p>
<p>Blame it on Intuition. Its the way I think, and make my decisions. Classical <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/infj" title="INFJ" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INFJ">INFJ</a>.</p>
<p>But if I put my kids in summer school, hubby can arrange to get off of work in time, and with the help of family. My oldest son and I, can be heading off to Yemen, inshallah. I think he  can greatly benefit from the trip as well.</p>
<p>Things are difficult for Muslim teenagers these days. A little mother son, bonding will do us both some good, and growth. We can study our <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/arabic_language" title="Arabic language" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic_language">Arabic</a>, and I was thinking, I possibly can even find a <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/publishing" title="Publishing" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publishing">publisher</a> to publish a book. Because of course I do plan to write about my travels.</p>
<p>I was a young mother. I had my oldest son, a few months before I turned 18. I have never left the country, and have not really traveled much even within the US. There are many things in life that I would like to experience. Often times as a mother we forget who we are as people, as women. And I have been a mother for almost half of my life.</p>
<p>I am working on self discovery, and what better way to do than to do with with my lord.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m just thinking out loud.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
