There's a saying in arabic "يا ريت انا ولا انت" which translates to "I wish it were me not you" and you say it to the ones you love when they're unwell.
Its like....i love you so much that I'd rather be in pain than watch you suffer. And i think thats beautiful.
When love visits you again, I pray it stays.
Heart so heavy this eid. It's so hard to be a functioning adult these days ..
— Surah Rahman [55:60]
"And if one day you forget my name and the colour of my eyes, it will be equivalent to losing a homeland."
Ghassan Kanafani
“Indeed, what is to come will certainly be better for you than what has gone by. Soon, your Nurturing Lord shall give you such that you will certainly be satisfied.”
— Qur'ān, 93:4-5 {The Morning Sunlight}
“He will give you better than what has been taken from you.”
(Qur'an 8 : 70)

It's been 6 months
6 months of waking up every day wondering if someone I love has been murdered
6 months of checking the news while holding my breath, desperate for a ray of hope and fearful of indifference
6 months of trying to exist in 2 different realities, one where I'm just a girl and the other where I'm watching in horror as the worst crimes against humanity are inflicted on my people
6 months of watching my hometown being deliberately wiped out of existence
6 months of watching the entire world be complicit in a genocidal campaign whilst preaching for peace on screen
6 months of being told over and over again that the blood that runs through my veins is cheap.

How much more can a heart take..
