Me&myfuturehubby. Thankuverymuch

i talked to my khalamma after many many months. this one, rukhsana kadri after losing her husband in her early 50s, my khalu in 2008, even in true heartbreak, went on to accomplish so many goals.

not one day does she remain idle. goes back and forth london and ahmedabad, takes care of her finances/business etc. my heart was in so much pain while talking to her. she gave me simple yet profound advice: she reminded me there is nothing to be afraid of in life as long as you are true. when you are true Allah is with you and when Allah is with you, it doesn’t matter who is against you. simple.

so i thought i would share this would you. may this be easy for us all :)

embrace it. own it. love it.

it will make you who you’re meant to be. struggles will challenge you, they will force you to leave your comfort zone. they will hurt you, they will make you cry. but that’s the beauty of it. life is not suppose to be easy, those who have it easy end up with boring stories to share and eventually have no valuable lessons to relay to their children. “with hardship comes ease”, the key word is “with”. WITH. thus, the ease is IN the struggle. remember, Allah will never give you anything you can’t handle, so remain strong. we must remain strong and we must be brave. it is the only way we will be able to BREATH in our struggle. be kind, be happy and realize this life is temporary and so is your struggle. i will stand by these words each time my faith begins to falter. i will remind myself that as long as Allah chooses to keep me alive, as long as Allah keeps my lungs breathing, my heart beating, ANY problem can be fixed. i will be fine. you will be fine. so embrace, own and love your struggle.

my favorite coldplay song <3
