Perfect Nonsense.

“The way sadness works is one of the strangest riddles of the world. If you are stricken with a great sadness, you may feel as if you have been set aflame, not only because of the enormous pain, but also because your sadness may spread over your life, like smoke from an enormous fire. You might find it difficult to see anything but your own sadness, the way smoke can cover a landscape so that all anyone can see is black. You may find that happy things are tainted with sadness, the way smoke leaves its ashen colors and scents on everything it touches. And you may find that if someone pours water all over you, you are damp and distracted, but not cured of your sadness, the way a fire department can douse a fire but never recover what has been burnt down.”

“For most of us, sadness and despair are married to each other. But when you give your sadness to Allah, Allah responds by filling your heart with so much hope - even though you’re still sad. You can be more broken than ever before, but you will be more unbroken than every before.”

To those who have had broken pasts, forever trying to understand what was, yet is no more.

“Sometimes we create our own heartbreaks through expectation.”
