📍Dear Heart, You’re Doing Better Than You Think

 — A Letter for the Nights You Feel Invisible

Dear Heart,

I see you.
Even when no one else seems to.
Even when the world rushes past your quiet ache and overlooks your silent strength.

You wake up every day and try.
You smile through exhaustion, give even when you feel empty, and carry the weight of worries you rarely speak of. That kind of bravery? It’s rare. And it deserves to be honoured.

I know there are days where you feel like you're drowning in your own thoughts — like no one truly understands how tired you are of being "strong."
I know what it’s like to lie in bed and wonder, “When will it feel lighter?”
And still… you rise again.
That is not weakness. That is grace.

Please don’t be so hard on yourself. Healing is not linear. Some days, you’ll bloom. Other days, you’ll just breathe. Both are progress. Both are enough.

And if no one has told you today:
You are allowed to rest.
You are allowed to feel.
You are allowed to not have all the answers.

Allah sees your heart. He knows your effort. He hears even the du’a you whisper with your eyes closed and lips trembling. So lean into that knowing. Let it hold you when nothing else can.

You are doing better than you think.
And you are never alone — not even for a moment.

With gentleness,
— Me
