Asalamualaykum (Peace be upon you)
How are you doing this early May?
How crazy is it that its already May of 2015. I remember when it was 2008-9-10 where I used to think that 2015-16+ seemed like such a long way away, how I couldn't quiet grasp the idea of it being even a number! But once you are in a situation you just get used to it without question.
I just wanted to quickly talk about controlling our feelings. I study psychology, and one of the things I read was the fact that we can be in a certain mood and express it but we can also have 'affect' where we can smile and laugh but be feeling the opposite way.
As exams have been rapidly approaching I have tried to have relaxed periods in to regain some energy, but every time I wake up with a sort of nervous feeling in my stomach, but when I have time to think about exams, I just think how its not a big deal, if I keep myself relaxed and calm, maybe I can retain the information.
It's crazy how the human mind works, its crazy how some people can explain us something worldly, but I believe us compex humans cannot be explain by something so simple. We are unique, we are weak but we can be strong, we are selfish but we can be helpful. We are so many things.
But only we can choose who we want to be!
May Allah guide us to be respectful and to only take part in activities which will help us in the Akhira. May Allah make all of us who are going through a hard time - be it exams, life, work, family and more - stronger and let us overcome our situations as winners.
I would like to apoligise now if I dont keep posting regularly from now until June. Exams are this upcoming Tuesday so please pray for me! :')
