[tordenvejr]

the only way to get what you want is to be brave enough to move towards it. if there is a willingness to be momentarily uncomfortable in order to live the life that calls from your heart then fear loses much of its claim over you and your decisions

[sea-mists]

literally though if you feel like your life is slipping through your fingers and every day goes too fast… try doing hard things, not just taking the easy route, like reading and making art and exercising and cooking a meal from scratch and journaling, doing these things without distraction, without being absorbed on a screen… the time will stretch and you’ll be reminded that life is long and beautiful if you make it so.

A man said to Sufyān ath-Thawri رحمه الله advise me, Sufyān ath-Thawri said:

“Work for this world in proportion to the time you shall abide therein [and how little that is] and work for the Afterlife in proportion to the time you shall abide therin [i.e. for eternity] and peace [be upon you].”

'My Lord, I am in dire need of whatever good thing You may send me," - Quran.

These words have extreme power in them SubhanAllah. Everytime you recite this, there will be some form of relief to you. My mom, she says "Just close your eyes and recite the prayer you love with conviction, no matter what your prayer won't be wasted" And SubhanAllah it never fails to amaze me how this calms my nerves down and brings me some form of relief 💕

“Wash every bowl, every dish as if you are bathing a baby - breathing in, feeling joy; breathing out, smiling. Every minute can be a holy, sacred minute. Where do you seek the spiritual? You seek the spiritual in every ordinary thing that you do every day. Sweeping the floor, watering the vegetables, and washing the dishes become holy and sacred if mindfulness is there. With mindfulness and concentration, everything becomes spiritual.”

— Thich Nhat Hanh, in “How to Eat”.
