His mercy is new every morning. Feeling better about being broken...and still spreading love. #hangingontohope

when I first got married I was eager to let everyone know my husband was Saudi . I thought I would be the first one in Saudi and I thought I was going to get saudified real early on ... Allah had something else in store for me. Pretty much everyone I know has been to Saudi . I'm not close to being saudified . I hang my head down with what feels like shame while others share their experiences living in Saudi. I only read about stories and see photos of what it's like living there.... Yet I am still here . Hanging my head down with utter most humility. I guess this was a good lesson for me to humble myself and Allah really put me in my place. I feel almost foolish for getting ahead of myself - even up until now.

She appears to be strong. And she really is very strong. But don't think for a second that there isn't a tsunami of heartaches and loss that swim through her cells. Her eyes are filled with pools of 'what ifs' and 'why me' in so many languages. Yet then she remembers that life is a tapestry of colors, and nobody gets out without having the shade black painted against their canvas. She picks up her brush and decides to paint her masterpiece. // Simi Fromen ________________ #OfChancesAndChoices #DanceWithDestiny #HangingOnToHope
