I want to be the kind of girl

I want to be the kind of girl that you see and feel peace, the kind where you see her smile and forget all of your life’s problems, the kind you can talk to all night and day and never get bored of; the kind where her inside beauty is such as beautiful as the outside, the kind of girl to give you another reason to see life’s purpose, the kind to see how it’s all worth it, the kind to cross oceans to be with, the kind who is reliable and can always lean on for depending, the kind who is determined and focused, the kind who looks soft but knows who can have access to her and who can talk to her. That’s the kind of girl .

Sometimes when I find myself experiencing negative emotions, I feel hypocritical and feel down on myself since I so closely try to adhere to principals of spirituality. Then, I remember spirituality does NOT equate to being perfect or having it all figured out. This journey is constant learning and unlearning, circling back to deeper and deeper truths. You can be spiritual and experience negative emotions; it is all about how you overcome and adapt. You can understand a spiritual concept and not embody it; that does not mean there is something wrong with you, you're just not ready to let go of that behavior yet. Being aware of the habit that needs to be modified / changed is a great thing within itself, just do not stay there!!!

It's in my nature to stay in my corner and watch the others. I enjoy my little observations.

O Allah, do not burden me with overthinking when You are the one who manages all affairs

You can't choose who or what you love, you can't choose who or what you care about. Sometimes, you just can't make sense out of what you feel… But you always have the choice to obey Allah. You always have the ability to choose what is better for you

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.”

- Maya Angelou

You deserve love now. Not once you lose weight. Not once you accomplish that thing. Not once you move. Not once you get on medication. Not once you start therapy. Not once you get that job. Not once you're more like them. Now. You don't have to earn the right to be loved. You deserve it right now, and always have.
