What was unachieved was unachieved by laziness. And what was achieved was achieved by hard work and effort."

“It's taboo to admit that you're lonely. You can make jokes about it, of course. You can tell people that you spend most of your time with Netflix or that you haven't left the house today and you might not even go outside tomorrow. But rarely do you ever tell people about the true depths of your loneliness, about how you feel more and more alienated from your friends each passing day and you're not sure how to fix it. It seems like everyone is just better at living than you are. A part of you knew this was going to happen. Growing up, you just had this feeling that you wouldn't transition well to adult life, that you'd fall right through the cracks. And look at you now, it's happening.”

one of the greatest tragedies in life is that you will always be loved more than you will ever know. someone in class finds your presence inviting and warm, even if you’ve only ever exchanged a few words with them—maybe none at all. someone on the street loves your smile and it gets them down the next few streets. someone you used to be friends with still wishes to fondly call your name. someone you used to be friends with five years ago would give anything to be in the same room as you today. someone who regularly comes into work is disappointed when you aren’t there to brighten their day. someone missed you today. someone noticed you were gone. someone loves you when you’re there; someone loves you when you’re nowhere to be found at all. you think you have always disappeared when you’re no longer in the picture, but you’ve never left the frame.

‏"إن أعظم ما يُنعم الله به عليك أن يرزقك اليقين الذي يجعلك تتوقف عن مساءلة نفسك باستمرار، لم حدث ما يحزنني؟ ما الحكمة منه؟ ليستقر في قلبك معنى واحد وهو أن الله أراد ذلك، وقدّره، وجعل الخير فيه، فيكف عقلك عن التفكير بما يرهقك، ويستنزفك، وتكون سلواك بأن الله نعم المولى ونعم النصير."

من الأرزاق طريقتك اللبقة في الحديث، وحُسن اختيارك لكلماتك وألفاظك، ومُراعاتك لمشاعر غيرك أثناء الحوار..

‏قال تعالىٰ: ﴿وَهُدُوا إِلَى الطَّيِّبِ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ﴾

‏فالقول الطَّيِّب نعمة وهدايةٌ من اللّٰه تعالى ولا يصدرُ إلا من عباد اللّٰه المؤمنين.
