(Not) Secret Amirer
Not long ago, I was just a typical girl who was struggling a lot in life and having a hard-time looking for my worth as a student –since i got stuck with my thesis, as a daughter and as a person in general. Not long ago, I felt like everything was against me and I was fighting a dreadful battle alone—no one to turn to and no one to hold on to. Not long ago, I was lost—but what made it worse was the fact that aside from not having any idea what path to take, was the dire feeling of defeat—without even getting the chance to raise a sword and fight back. And as i was trying my hardest to escape this dark, daunting tunnel, he gave me that beam of hope—without him knowing. In a pitch black dome, I’ve found him. I’ve found him wearing his most genuine smiles, his most admirable personality and his mere existence oozing with authenticity. Beyond hope, he gave me life—life which i thought I’ve already lost.
Then I’ve found myself and I better understand my own worth. God has given me this life not just to give up easily, and he taught that to me. Day after day, checking on him becomes not just a simple hobby, but more of lifetime habit. And now, I would say that he inspires me a lot—to finish my thesis, to study abroad, to write tons of poetry, to love and appreciate myself and other people more, to be better for myself, to understand my own worth better, and most especially, to know Allah and turn to Allah—again.
I’m sharing this without any unscrupulous intentions; I just wanted to express my utmost gratitude to him who took me out of the dark – without he even knows – and made me a better person than I was yesterday. I hope my story would inspire you all as much as he inspires me everysecond of my life.
