Assalamualaikum.
I was going through my old blog posts. And I realized, I have grown.
It is such an overwhelming feeling. These posts act as ‘Reminder to Self’ as well as ‘Hey, Look How Much You’ve Grown.’
The latter are those really, really old posts that sometimes I couldn’t imagine myself writing that, experiencing that. Those posts made me cringe. But I’m thankful for all the bad and especially good past.
Growing up, I’ve always been that kid that over-thinks. Once when I was 9, my Malay teacher taught us this proverb. I couldn’t remember what it was but I remember the meaning was ‘someone who thinks too much.’ And that teacher mentioned the cons of thinking too much. And I caught him looking at me a bit longer than at the others when we were discussing that. And my heart whispered “Atiqa, he knows.” I always wondered how he knew.
It’s a trait I wish I could delete. I still do that you know, over-think. Though much lesser, because I have stronger faith now.
I really miss my loved ones. Everyday, I do. All I could do is pray to Allah to take care of those that I miss.
And I hope you had a good one.
