Sometimes it feels like the world expects us to always be moving ๐
As if standing still means falling behind.
But deep inside, there is silence ๐ค
And in that silence, a voice gently says: pause. Look within. Feel ๐ฟ
I often return to these words from the Quran:
โAllah does not burden a soul beyond what it can bearโฆโ (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:286)
And then comes a sense of ease โจ
Because it reminds me: Iโm not a machine. Iโm a human. A woman. With emotions, pauses, and dreams ๐
Itโs okay if I donโt get everything done.
Itโs okay to feel tired โ and still be worthy ๐ซ
I donโt have to be strong every second to be valuable ๐
Iโm learning not to compare myself.
Iโm learning to accept my journey โ between countries, roles, the outer and the inner ๐ค๏ธ
Stillness is also progress ๐๏ธ
Do you know how to be with yourselfโฆ without demanding results?
