Agreed.

Agreed.

Kindness is a form of intelligence. It comes from a place of knowledge, a place of awareness that this could be me, the idea that this act may give me nothing in return in the immediate sense, but it will live in this world and I'll find it in the Hereafter.

Kindness is a thought-process, and when it's perfected, it packs its things and heads down to dwell in the heart.

Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

"The believer is gracious, for there is no goodness in one who is neither kind nor friendly."

— [Musnad Ahmad, Grade: Sahih]

“No more apologies for a bleeding heart when the opposite is no heart at all. Danger of losing our humanity must be met with more humanity.”

— The Source of Self-Regard: The War on Error by Toni Morrison

Very well said.

It is said: when your way of thinking exceeds your appearance in politeness, your feelings are more fragrant than your perfume, and your manners are more attractive than your looks - only then will you become elegant.

ولن تدوم العاصفة إلى الأبد. عندما الشمس ترتفع، سوف تكون كذلك.

The storm won’t last forever. When the sun rises, you will too.

give yourself credit...

... for getting through the days, you didn't think you would get through. for completing tasks, you didn't think you could do at all. for taking steps forward, when you thought you couldn't walk anymore.

you are stronger and braver than you realise. give yourself credit for that bravery. you deserve it ✨

Don’t overthink the future. Have dreams, have plans and strive to make them come true, to make it happen. But take life as it comes. Don’t obsess over the future. Life won’t always go your way. Overthinking and obsessing over it won’t help, it only increases you in worry about something you don’t even know will happen. Take every day as it comes, appreciate the blessings in it and focus on the positive. Things will eventually mess up either way and you’ll have to deal with it. But until then, take life as it comes without obsessing and worrying over it.
