If I were to be honest right now, almost nothing in my life is going as planned. A lot of things are just going bad, and never a week passes by without me crying at least once. I have been asking a lot of "why"s to Allah - why me, why him, why us, why this, why that? - but today got me thinking that perhaps changing my "why"s into "what"s would alter my perspective and perhaps make me feel better. So I decided to ask Allah differently. What are You trying to tell me? And what are You trying to teach me?
And now I know.
