I'm having a real difficult time starting up this thing. I think because I'm just so tired and feeling worn out creativity. Each day feels like a struggle, whether I'm struggling to remember the bigger picture, - that I exist solely to worship Allaah - or struggling to not allow one child's constant rotten behavior to bring out the beast in me. But then I happened across a post on Facebook - Your 100 Gratitudes - and I thought, oh, this is perfect! Just what I need. Perhaps this little project will not only get my creative juices flowing, but will help give me a brighter outlook on my daily life.
Gratitude 1: Thanks for breaking up with me.
Dear nameless ex fiance,
Thank you for breaking up with me and telling me two go back home to reflect on my life and Islam. Looking back, it was a really weird thing to hear you say, considering how we were living, but if you hadn't (and by that, I mean if Allaah had not ordained any of this), I'd probably still be doing all those things that were dragging me down. Alhamdullillaah, I feel like I'm afloat now, even if I have to paddle every now and then to keep my head up. So thank you. May Allaah guide you. Ameen.
