Inner Calm

There is an inner calm that I am finding in me these days which is giving me so much comfort and ease. I suddenly feel like the whole of last year's lessons are making themselves visible to me. I am also learning that the morning walks I take are making me connect with Allah and nature much more than ever. I feel Allah's presence around me in so many things and so many humans. I see Allah's miracles and just stop and say, Subhan Allah, isn't this life funny and beautiful? I constantly get this feeling that the lessons are out there, everywhere we go, only if we look close enough. Today I am so grateful to many wonderful news and exciting holidays coming up. 

Things I am saying alhamdulillah for today:

1. Alhamdulillah for the morning walks.
2. Alhamdulillah for the inner peace and calm I feel.
3. Alhamdulillah for the safety I feel around Taha.
4. Alhamdulillah for nature and the sea.
5. Alhamdulillah for sunny days and cloudy and windy days.
6. Alhamdulillah for the meals we eat every day, and having the choice to eat different meals.
7. Alhamdulillah for being so calm about getting jobs or being rejected.
8. Alhamdulillah for being a sister of three beautiful ladies.
9. Alhamdulillah for being an auntie of 6 nieces and nephews.
10. Alhamdulillah for every time I realise I am changing to be the truest version of myself.
11. Alhamdulillah for WhatApp audios. They completely eliminate my feelings of loneliness.
12. Alhamdulillah for my healthy family, and for Taha's lovely family.

Things I love about myself today:

1. How lightly I take things.
2. How I am there for the people I love.
3. How I can still be there for people even if I am not feeling great myself.
4. My awareness to change whatever it is that I don't like about myself or my life.
5. My awareness that Allah is with me and the inner calm I am letting myself feel.
