And seek help through patience and prayer, and indeed, it is difficult except for the humbly submissive [to Allah ] -Qur’an 2:45

If you don’t want me to go, don’t let the tears fall down, don’t let the words run first, don’t blame the world for us. But rather, hold me tight and whisper the words I long to hear, “Please stay.”

uncomfortablesoul:

Always remember you are unique and you are important. There is no one else in the world quite like you. You are special. There never has been and there never will be anyone like you again.

Don’t let people take away your respect for yourself. No matter what they say or do remember that you are very important and a worthwhile person, and always retain respect for yourself. They cannot take away your self respect and dignity, for you control what you think of yourself and no one else.

You have your own special qualities and talents, and though you may not have the talents and gifts that someone else has, you have your own talents and gifts that others do not have. No one else can be you. Only you can be you. Try to be the best you possible.

Remember also that you are important to other people. You cannot help but touch the lives of other people as you go through life. There are many people who need your love and support, and who look up to you, and want to emulate you. People you may not even be aware of need you, and watch your life, and if you give up and fail yourself, you are failing them and letting them down too.

And you are important in the eyes of God.

-Walter Westfall —- Illinois

“ where God is, there is hope. where there is hope, there is faith. where there is faith, anything can be done as long as you put all of your heart into it.”

Dear you,

I want to tell you that I believe in you;
I believe in your mind
and all the dreams, intelligence,
and determination within you.
You can accomplish anything.
You have so much open to you,
so please don’t give up on what you want
from life or from yourself.
Please don’t put away the dreams inside of you.
You have the power to make them real.
You have the power to make yourself exactly what you want to be.
Believe in yourself the way I do, and nothing will be beyond your reach.

Mistreated
Misplaced
Misunderstood
Miss knowing it’s all good
It didnt slow me down.
Mistaking
Always second guessing
Underestimating
Look I’m still around

You’re so mean When you talk About yourself, you were wrong
Change the voices in your head Make them like you instead. 

You’re perfect.

I would ride on your shoulders
And look out on the world
Pretending I was big and tall like you
When you were there to hold me
I never was afraid
You made me feel there’s nothing I can’t do

As I kept on growing
We often disagreed
But you let me find myself in my own way
And it’s funny, how just lately
I’ve come to recognize
How wise you are becoming every day
There’s so much you’ve given me
I hope I’ve made you proud
You’re everything a Dad should be
And it’s time to tell you now

You’re my hero
You didn’t have to say a word
Your love was the message that I heard
Inspiring me to be all I can be
You’re my hero
And ‘cause you’re my Dad…
I’m twice as blessed and lucky to be me.

“there is so much in life that i can’t control - the world, other people and their choices and reactions, accidents, imperfections, sufferings, hardships. Yet this is my life and regardless of what happens, I’m going to be happy.” - Richard Carlson, Ph.D.

Happiness is the result of a decision to be happy. You may believe that you will someday arrive at a place called happiness, that someday everything will fall into place and  you will be able to say: ” Great, here i am. I’ve made it to the happiness land.” Obviously, this is isn’t going to happen. Regardless of how good your life gets and how many of your dreams come true, you will still have to make the decision to be happy. You will still have to make a commitment. There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.

“It just hurts so badly sometimes. Sometimes it feels like you’re being thrown into a train track, but the train only hits your heart. Continuously. Over and over again. Without failure.”

Maybe my heart’s too weak. There’s just this feeling, thought I had to get going… got too scary, got too big, got to get out of here. But now I don’t know how to get home.

Memories just linger and don’t seem to go away. Why can’t I be happier?  The confusion I’m feeling now won’t disappear over night, but someway, somehow, everything will be alright.

A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape …
but a woman of strength kneels in prayer to keep her soul in shape…

A strong woman isn’t afraid of anything …
but a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of her fear…

A strong woman won’t let anyone get the best of her …
but a woman of strength gives the best of her to everyone…

A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
a woman of strength realizes life’s mistakes can also be God’s blessings and capitalizes on them…

A strong woman walks sure footedly …
but a woman of strength knows God will catch her when she falls…

A strong woman wears the look of confidence on her face …
but a woman of strength wears grace…

A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey …
but a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong…

a strong woman is one who gets her heart broken time and time again and still has the strength to gather the pieces to create a new life for herself. Remember that no matter what pain you’ve been through, tears will dry, broken hearts will heal, and somewhere out there the person who truly cares is waiting. you’re a woman and you are strong.

life is going to throw you so many obstacles to overcome. some are going to be easier than others, some will leave you happy and some will kill you deep inside. but no matter what happens in the end, it’ll always bring along more and more obstacles to face. You just have to stand tall, hold your head high and just take whatever life brings to you.

The main thing I learned? if you aren’t willing to put up with a little pain, you won’t go far. With every journey you’ll get scratches and bruises, but if you really love it, those scratches will be worth it and you wouldn’t really notice them because you take the pain with the joy.

The important thing is not to bitter over life’s disappointments. Learn to let go of the past and recognize that everyday won’t be sunny. And when you find yourself lost in the darkness of despair, remember, it’s only in the black of night that you see the stars, and those stars lead you back home.

“Sometimes your biggest battle is to believe in yourself.”

I feared rejection until I learned to have faith in myself.
I feared pain until I learned that it’s necessary for growth.
I feared the truth until I saw the ugliness in lies.
I feared life until I experienced its beauty.
I feared death until I realized that it’s not an end, but a beginning.
I feared my destiny, until I realized that I had the power to change my life.
I feared hate until I saw that it was nothing more than ignorance.
I feared love until it touched my heart, making the darkness fade into endless sunny days
I feared ridicule until I learned how to laugh at myself.
I feared growing old until I realized that I gained wisdom every day.
I feared the future until I realized that life just kept getting better.
I feared the past until I realized that it could no longer hurt me.
I feared the dark until I saw the beauty of the starlight.
I feared the light until I learned that the truth would give me strength.
I feared change, until I saw that even the most beautiful butterfly had to undergo
a metamorphosis before it could fly.

learn to believe in yourself.
