You get a strange feeling when you’re about to leave a place.
Like you’ll not only miss the people you love but
you’ll miss the person you are now at this time and this place, because you’ll never be this way ever again.
It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.
There will be a time when you will look back and be thankful that certain people, opportunities, and things were removed from your life because you would have never found yourself had you not lost them. Sometimes, we get so caught up worrying about what we lost, rather than realizing what we are gaining..It happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you’ve known forever don’t see things the way you do. So you keep the wonderful memories, but find yourself moving on.
I have this favorite ayat from the quran when I knew people will keep on judging keep on talking about about stuffs they dont even know its right. from surah yunus <3 i read while convince myself that all the pain is temporary and i will get what I want in the end. Eventually.
وَلَا يَحْزُنْكَ قَوْلُهُمْ
“Do not let their words sadden you.”
