That says what I’ve been thinking forever.

Good, non-confrontational conversations are so few and far between these days.

In 3 days you will be 4 months old...

4 months of motherhood for me, in which you taught me more about being a mom then all the podcasts and the articles i anxiously read before you came into my life ...

I discovered with you how to live with oppsite feelings...how to feel exhausted but so deeply alive, how to feel sleepy but never annoyed , how to feel restricted in my freedom but feeling the happiest in this sweet prison cell as long as you are there with me... how to feel strong in times of doubt because just the idea of you gets me going 🤍

Your little giggles and smiles fill my days with joy, but remind me also how time flies by,i want to never miss any of it

اللهم حسن خُلقه كما احسنت خَلقه،و أنبته يا الله نباتا حسنا و اجعله ذخرا لنا و للأمة أجمع ...اللهم املئ قلبه بالإيمان و اجعله من عبادك الصالحين و وفقني في تربيته تربية حسنة

Motherhood redefined my femininity in the most unexpected ways...

Having a baby has changed many aspects of my life ,one of them was the way i presented myself as woman....

I stopped putting on accessories because my baby would grab them and could be dangerous for him....i stopped wearing perfumes cuz i know it would bother my baby's senses, the choice of my outfits relies entirely on my ability to breastfeed in them and how comfortable the fabric would be for my baby ( which eliminated like 80% of my wardrobe )...make up has become very limited as well cuz i always fear the products would end up on his delicate skin ...

But even with such limitations ,i can say that nothing has made me feel more womanly than having a baby...it awakened a form of softness and affection that i didnt even know existed in me , i have always thought of me as a pretty rational kinda cold girl, turns out i was not, every look at my baby reminds me that i never loved anything or anyone else that much and probably never will ... .

along with this huge softness came a sense of strength and a very primal protectiveness towards my baby , which i feel completes the femininity i have always seeked .... this balance i acquired has made me look deeper into the meanings of feeling feminine 🤍

I am not giving up my make up and accessories tho, am just diving into some exploration journey for now 🫢

ووسّع لي في داري ورزقي وقلبي وسهّل الحياة علي وخُذ ياربٌ بيدي أخذَ الكِرام عليك. لا يعجزك شيء في الأرض ولا في السماء

Texting is cool but what if we just drive to the beach, watch the sunset and talk about life?

‏تَعرف محبَّتك لأحد من رغبتك الحقيقية في الإصغاء له، مُحاولة تأويل أقواله ومشاعره بصدق، المحبَّة هي سعي دائم للفهم.. لذلك الصدود هو صد عن الفهم، أن تجفو أحدًا يعني أن تكتفي بفهم سطحي عنه، أن ترضى بأدنى تفسير لأقواله وأفعاله، التحفُّز للفهم من أرفَع أمارات الأُلفة

i've gotten really good at being reasonable about things that actually broke my heart

‏من أعلى دَرجات الجهاد.. جهاد الحُزن، جهادك في التَّقبُل، جهادك في الحمد والشُكر وأنت في شِدّة، أن تُسلّم أمرك لله حتى إن لم تفهم الحكمة أو تستوعب الأحداث، أن تلجأ وأنت متيقّن أن لا ملجأ من الله إلا إليه، أن تستسلم وترضى حتى وإن خالف ذلكَ هَواك. صبرك وشُكرك وتقبلك جهاد.
