This is such a wholesome piece of writing ✨💕 it's truly hits at the core of my heart. As a girl who always strives for perfectionism, overthinks and struggles with taking action due to fear despite even knowing that it will not benefit me and take me anywhere 😭 i feel like i came across it at the right time. Thank you so much for writing it 🫂❤

Absolutely beautiful. I feel so seen. You have no idea how much I needed these words and how each of them spoke directly to me. Thank you so much. May Allah reward you immensely 🤍

“i’ve overplanned myself into panic attacks. i’ve built entire life strategies off fear instead of trust. and each time, Allah gently reminded me that i don’t control the outcome. that i was never meant to.”

“somewhere along the journey i realised, i’d rather take messy action with trust than perfect plans rooted in anxiety.”

“your only job now is to stop blocking it with fear. to stop building walls with your anxiety. and just sit, expectantly, like a guest who knows they’ve been invited.”

Thank you 🙏🏽

JazaakumuLlaahu khayra. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this.

I recently wrote something on my X, but I'm unable to share a screenshot here.

It was in the lines of: "Dear Overthinker,

Leave it to ALlāh. Loosen your grip.

It won't be as bad as the entire movie script in your head. I promise"

You really expatiated this.
