Dive

Expectation: Water
Reality: Empty

Head first. So dumb.

Nouman Ali Khan

Happiness and contentment are two fundamentally different things. Happiness is moments. It never stays. It can’t stay. Contentment is a state of being. And if a person can reach that state of being. Then there are more moments of happiness. And the hard moments become easier to navigate. God says you can get contentment by remembering Him. But the truth is from what I can understand contentment doesn’t erase sadness.It simply makes it manageable. Nothing can erase sadness from life. It is part of what must be experienced here. But it cannot color our life. Make an effort to remember Allah. Make an effort to gain contentment. May Allah make it easy.

Amin.  So beautifully accurate.
