Without a doubt, taking the first step towards something will always be scary. But, when you start to actually walk yourself in, familiarizing the path that you chose, you'll just realize that the uneasiness that you've been feeling from the start has been lifted up. Bi Idhnillah.

Thus, keep on trying. Trust yourself and the plans that Allah ﷻ had written for you. Trust the process and anticipate the outcome with ease. Because, unbeknownst to you, there's someone out there who is rooting for you, too.

Don't dwell yourself too much with this dunya —chasing its pleasure to your heart's content. Whatever you build solely for this temporary world, you won't be able to bring them with you in your grave. You won't be able to benefit from them. You cannot save yourself from Allah's punishment with them. Thus, instill this mindset to yourself, this life is temporary. And everything in this world is temporary. But your good deeds aren't. 🕊️

We suffered enough to realize that beautiful things are temporary, that beginnings do not represent the truth of people, and that endings are always the most honest... We learned not to tell anyone about our pain so that they do not multiply it on us, we realized that those we forgive a lot will exaggerate in hurting us more, we learned not to give our trust to anyone and not to exclude anyone, we understood that those who leave us once will leave us many times and until the end of life, and those who break inside us will not return again, and the amount of love we give to others will be the amount of our pain from them... We learned and changed, but we realized that life still has more in store for us, and that perhaps it may bring us beautiful healing with the days, perhaps..!! 🌸

They lied when they told us that time makes us forget everything we've lived. Time reminds us every day of everything we've been through... the good and the bad, the meeting and the farewell, the tears and the joy, the oppression and the sadness... We actually suppress our feelings just to live, we ignore them and show the exact opposite of what we feel, deluding ourselves that we've forgotten..!!🦋

Most men will only experience unconditional love from their mothers. And some of us don't even get that.

Most of us have never even felt appreciation or respect without conditions or hidden intentions.

We don't know what it sounds like to hear, "I see you, I'm proud of you, and I'm glad you hear you really make a difference."

Yet the expectation is to constantly display the strength and love that the world is hesitantly conveying. 

We're expected to have a thick skin but get judged if it turns into a hard shell. 

The first step in being a man is ignoring the hunger, because yes, boy, you're going to be starving. starved of attention. starved of affirmation. starved of love. You're starved of being told that you're enough.

Step two and being a man are comfort with replaceability. You are only as good as you are useful.
You are only as valuable as you are needed by others.

Should there ever be a day, boy, where you fail to provide everybody with a smiling face, then do not be surprised when they say all men do is take up space.

I realized that the reason why our generation is mostly sad, struggling with mental and emotional crisis is because our affairs are not centered to Allah alone

We are fine, we pass the bumps of life alone without complaining or grumbling, we are silent a lot because there is a noise in our head that does not calm down and whoever sees us feels as if we live in another world, we speak little and are often absent-minded, and when we are asked about our condition we tell you with a beautiful smile: I am fine... We are skilled at playing the role of happiness on the stage of life 💜

Sometimes, Delays Are Opportunities In Disguise

-

Healing can be as painful as goodbyes. Somedays you feel you're okay but also there are days when you feel heavy again. It's indeed not linear. You'll find yourself relapsing from time to time. But hang in there. You're in the right path. It will be worth it in the end.
