عبْد الله بن عَبّاسٍ -رَضِي اللهُ عَنْهُما- قالَ: كُنْتُ خَلْفَ النَّبِيِّ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- يَوْمًا، فَقَالَ: ((يَا غُلاَمُ، إِنِّي أُعَلِّمُكَ كَلِمَاتٍ؛ احْفَظِ اللهَ يَحْفَظْكَ، احْفَظِ اللهَ تَجِدْهُ تُجَاهَكَ، إِذَا سَأَلْتَ فَاسْأَلِ اللهَ، وَإِذَا اسْتَعَنْتَ فَاسْتَعِنْ بِاللهِ، وَاعْلَمْ أَنَّ الأُمَّةَ لَوِ اجْتَمَعَتْ عَلَى أَنْ يَنْفَعُوكَ بِشَيْءٍ لَمْ يَنْفَعُوكَ إِلاَّ بِشَيْءٍ قَدْ كَتَبَهُ اللهُ لَكَ، وَإِنِ اجْتَمَعُوا عَلَى أَنْ يَضُرُّوكَ بِشَيْءٍ لَمْ يَضُرُّوكَ إِلاَّ بِشَيْءٍ قَدْ كَتَبَهُ اللهُ عَلَيْكَ، رُفِعَتِ الأَقْلاَمُ وَجَفَّتِ الصُّحُفُ))
Abdullah bin ‘Abbas –radhiyallahu ‘anhuma– menceritakan, suatu hari saya berada di belakang Nabi shallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam. Beliau bersabda, “Nak, aku ajarkan kepadamu beberapa untai kalimat: Jagalah Allah, niscaya Dia akan menjagamu. Jagalah Allah, niscaya kau dapati Dia di hadapanmu. Jika engkau hendak meminta, mintalah kepada Allah, dan jika engkau hendak memohon pertolongan, mohonlah kepada Allah. Ketahuilah, seandainya seluruh umat bersatu untuk memberimu suatu keuntungan, maka hal itu tidak akan kamu peroleh selain dari apa yang telah Allah tetapkan untukmu. Dan andaipun mereka bersatu untuk melakukan sesuatu yang membahayakanmu, maka hal itu tidak akan membahayakanmu kecuali apa yang telah Allah tetapkan untuk dirimu. Pena telah diangkat dan lembaran-lembaran telah kering.”

It is not easy. Time to time, our faith are tested. We faced challenges differently. There is endless ways of how we will be tested.
It gets us anxious. Either it shows or not. Sometimes, we hold our pride so high to even admit our struggles. Acknowledge is definitely the door to solutions.
I'm going through this phase. Non other than writing helps me to ventilate.
Alhamdulillah, I could never be more thankful to my husband. Trying so hard, to understand me. To step in the other side of my challenging world. At time, I'm sinfully regretting my life. He will be there non stop. Listening even he doesn't understand. Listening even he, in the process will somehow hurt with my assumptions. Take a pause to nuture himself then come back everyday to pick me up.
Last night, was our first session of Quran recitation online. We wanted to exchange more than words and worries. So we exchange our recitation.
I knew how hard his work is. Standing the whole shift. Dealing with people. I knew who he is. So whatever that he has done for me, is beyond expectation.
Ya Allah I'm so thankful for sending him to me.

Bottled emotions, love and letting God.
Being in long distance relationship had put me in a roller coster moments.
I am the kind of person who always having issue in expressing my true-self. At any point I feel the need of sharing my bottled emotions, I' ll use various kind of indirect ways. I'll create a story about 'someone'. I'll make it as an open not-so-serious question. I'll make it as my past. Whatever it is, I'll try as much as I can not to show what I truly feel inside.
Maybe I felt that vulnerable is weak. I always looked up to independent lady. Not just that I bottled my negative feeling, I hate being around with someone who has negative vibes, as simple as someone who expressed to me that their food is awful. I just don't like it. This somehow, portrayed me as a 'cool' person.
But of course, I've gone through struggles differently. I refused to share. I find it difficult for me to open up and discuss about my feeling. I find it difficult for me to get help, to ask for opinion. I'm so used to lead a lone-ranger life as in emotional Lone Ranger. Even though I have pretty awesome companies and circles. I just don't discuss all the emotions, questions that been lingering inside.
Marriage, it is trust, love and same goals that unite us. But we barely know deeply about each other. I knew it is wrong, but I can't help to wish that he is a mind reader. I still bottled my feelings but this time, being 'the one', I always hope that he can read me. The expectation pilling as time goes by. After a year of marriage I expect we knew each other well. Of course it is irrelevant. Especially due to this COVID-19, being both healthcare worker, we rarely spend time together, let alone to reach a 'mind -reader' level.
When life hit me, at those hard moments, expectation raised up. Of course, when it didn't go my way, I feel frustrated. I knew, it is a matter of time. It is a matter of good communication. It is no longer me or him, it is us.
I also knew, that I'm responsible for my happiness. Not others.
This fact, hit me real hard on my face. Never did I realise that my habit of bottling my feelings and thought would affect someone else. Someone near to me. (even though not physically near).
This is part and parcel of life. At the age of 31, I found something new about myself, what are the things I should improve, how to face and embrace this hardship. How to let go expectation and at the same time, to accept me the way I am and make friend with taqdir.
My favourite quote, "Berdamailah dengan takdir."

Bottling up my emotions
I'm in a state of struggling to find my directions. It felt helpless this time.
When you are in the state that you should be contented for all that you have, having this feeling and questions can be depressing. You will blame yourself for being ungrateful servants. I've a stable job, pious circle, supportive family, very kind and selfless husband that any lady could ask for. But question about 'purpose of life', I guess it will never leave me. Of course I can tell you and write down together with quotation and Hadith recitation, but as you grew older, you knew that this is a matter of heart and soul.
It is a matter of trust.
It is a matter of believe.
However it is a serious issue that need your attention. Or else it will lingers while time tick tocking. Without you realise, you've lost it. In your death bed, you'll be among those who wishes to get more time in this dunya.
While scrolling down the YouTube, I found this video in the link.
6 signs you're bottling up your emotions
It stabbed right into my heart.
I knew this too shall pass. It is a temporary state. I just don't know how long. But this practice of me, bottling up my emotions have been more than 10 years I think. I used to be a very vocal, out spoken and expressive person. But it slowly changes as I'm adulting.
My writing today, is not to provide any solution or pretending to have reach a perfect ending. It just me recognising who I am on the daily basis. Learning to cope with my feelings as a way of growing up and maturing.
To Him, I submitted my trust and believe. He holds my heart that nobody else could, not even myself.
