But, this dark place is not the end. Remember that the darkness of night precedes the dawn. And as long as your heart still beats, this is not the death of it. You don’t have to die here. Sometimes, the ocean floor is only a stop on the journey. And it is when you are at this lowest point, that you are faced with a choice. You can stay there at the bottom, until you drown. Or you can gather pearls and rise back up—stronger from the swim, and richer from the jewels.
Yasmin MogahedTell this imprisoned soul that it will never be owned. Nothing will ever own you. But God.
Yasmin MogahedThe body that we tend to is only temporary, while the soul that we neglect is # eternal .
