Psalm 91 💗
The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me. ❤️
I will protect those who trust in my name. 💖
When they call on me, I will answer; 🤗
I will be with them in trouble. 🕊
I will rescue and honor them. ❤️🔥
~ Psalm 91:14-15
“Accept the fact that you will grow apart from people you’ve had significant relationships with. Understand when someone no longer positively affects your life. Let them go. Don’t hinder your growth.”
— Lyjeeria
“Never leave a person who touches your soul more than your body.”
— Unknown
“Being happy is a very personal thing and it really has nothing to do with anyone else.”
— Abraham-Hicks, Getting Into the Vortex
Hope this brings you as much peace as it brings me
How the absence of someone else feels like the absence of myself
There were times I was kind when I should have been cruel and times I was cruel when I should have been kind.
"Wisdom leads to unity, but ignorance to separation. So long as God seems to be outside and far away, there is ignorance. But when God is realised within, that is true knowledge." -Ramakrishna

If I ever push you away, please consider it an act of kindness and proof of how much I love you. Trust me, you don’t want to get too close to my open wounds or my broken heart. You may feel hurt if I push you away, but really, I’m just setting you free. A monster like me doesn’t deserve love; it can’t save me or give me hope. Hearing people say they love me leaves my throat dry and my eyes watering. Don’t, please, just don’t.
when you leave me, lock the door behind you. i don't want anyone else coming in.
"Ya Allāh, I ask You for Your love, the love of those who love You, and the deeds which will cause me to attain Your love."
