Standing in Solidarity: Wishing the Conscience Flotilla Sumud a Safe Passage to Gaza

In a world often overwhelmed by complex geopolitical issues, there are moments when simple acts of human compassion shine through as beacons of hope. One such moment is encapsulated in the mission of the Conscience Flotilla Sumud, a key part of the larger Global Sumud Flotilla. As they embark (or have embarked) on their journey, my heart, and undoubtedly the hearts of many, are with them, wishing for a safe sail and a secure arrival in Gaza.

Why This Mission Matters

For years, the people of Gaza have lived under a restrictive blockade, severely limiting their access to essential goods, medical supplies, and even the basic freedoms that many of us take for granted. This blockade has created a humanitarian crisis, impacting every aspect of daily life for over two million people.

The Conscience Flotilla Sumud is more than just a collection of boats carrying aid; it represents a powerful statement of global solidarity. It's a testament to the belief that access to humanitarian aid should never be politicized or denied. On board are brave activists, medical professionals, journalists, and advocates from around the world, all united by a common purpose: to deliver much-needed supplies and to peacefully challenge a blockade that continues to inflict immense suffering.

The Power of Hope and Action

While the journey is often fraught with challenges and potential obstacles, the resolve of those involved is unwavering. Their courage reminds us that even in the face of immense difficulties, hope and collective action can drive change. Each wave they cut through carries with it the hopes of countless individuals who believe in a more just and equitable world.

This flotilla is a physical manifestation of compassion, aiming to alleviate suffering and to bring global attention back to a situation that demands urgent resolution. It is a symbol that the world has not forgotten Gaza.

My Wish for a Safe Arrival

To all the incredible individuals sailing with the Conscience Flotilla Sumud, I extend my heartfelt wishes for a safe passage and a successful arrival. May your mission be unhindered, your cargo delivered, and your message of peace and justice heard loud and clear. May you return home safely, knowing you have made a profound difference.

Their journey is a reminder to all of us that we have a role to play in advocating for human rights and supporting those who champion humanitarian causes. Let us continue to raise our voices, share their story, and stand in solidarity with the people of Gaza.

From Sabotage to Self-Trust: The Remedy 💖

Recognizing the pattern of self-sabotage is the first step toward breaking it. If you see yourself in this story, understand that your behavior isn't malicious; it's a defense mechanism born from fear. The key to healing lies in shifting your focus from controlling your partner's actions to nurturing your own emotional safety. This begins with a powerful journey toward **self-trust**. (Read about the realization in Part 1: The Realization—When Pain Becomes a Comfort).

Here are some steps to begin your healing journey:

1. Acknowledge Your Triggers. 🤔 Start paying attention to the situations that make you want to create conflict. Is it when things are going too well? When you've made a mistake? Journaling can help you uncover these patterns and the underlying emotions.
2. Practice Radical Self-Trust. 💪🌸 When you feel the urge to seek validation or reassurance from your partner, pause. Ask yourself: "What do I need right now?" Can you provide that comfort for yourself? This practice shifts the power back to you. It's about being enough for yourself first, so you're not relying on your partner to fill a void that only you can fill.
3. Reclaim Your Emotional Safety. 🛡️🌺 Your safety shouldn't depend on someone else's behavior. This means learning to **say no** when you're uncomfortable, setting healthy boundaries based on self-respect, and prioritizing your own well-being. By taking care of your own needs and validating your own feelings, you'll naturally reduce your need for external proof. Your safety will come from within, not from your partner's actions.

The ultimate goal isn't just to stop the cycle of pain. It's to build a foundation of inner strength and **self-love** so solid that you can finally open yourself up to the possibility of a truly healthy and happy relationship. Breaking this cycle is not a sign of weakness; it's an act of immense courage. It's a journey of healing your past so you can finally receive the love you've always deserved. ✨❤️

Back to Part 1: The Realization ↩️

When Pain Becomes a Comfort: The Realization 💔

Have you ever found yourself in a relationship where, deep down, you're secretly wishing for your partner to treat you badly? It sounds strange and painful, but it's a real paradox: "Treat me badly so I don't feel bad." 😥

This isn't about craving hurt. It's about escaping the overwhelming weight of guilt and the terror of disappointment. It's an act of **self-sabotage**, where we provoke our own unhappiness to maintain a twisted sense of control. This pattern often stems from a deep-seated fear that we are fundamentally flawed and will inevitably let our partners down. The constant "what ifs" consume us: *What if I mess up? What if they see the real me and leave? What if I disappoint them?*

For people caught in this cycle, the internal anxiety of potential failure is unbearable. So, they decide to force the outcome. They act out, start arguments, or create conflict. When their partner reacts with frustration or hurt, it's a grim relief ⛓️. That pain becomes a form of twisted absolution—a self-inflicted punishment that temporarily silences the crushing guilt and fear. It confirms the internal narrative: "I knew I was bad, and here's the proof."

This is also where the **comfort of the familiar** comes in. If past relationships or childhood experiences were filled with conflict and emotional instability, a peaceful, healthy partnership can feel strange and threatening.

The pain of a strained relationship, while awful, is a known quantity. It confirms our deepest, most destructive beliefs about ourselves: that we are unworthy of unconditional love. By keeping the relationship in a state of turmoil, we avoid the terrifying vulnerability that comes with true happiness. We don't have to face the fear of being fully seen and still being loved. Instead, we retreat to the familiar emotional "home" of hurt.

Continue to Part 2: The Remedy 👉

The Power of Fullness: How to Love Without Losing Yourself

I love you, but I don’t beg for crumbs of your affection. I share my needs, but I won’t force you to change. I am whole on my own, and our marriage is a beautiful addition to my life—not the definition of it. This isn't about being emotionally distant; it's about loving from a place of strength, not desperation.

In a healthy marriage, both partners come from a place of emotional fullness.

The Cup Metaphor: Fullness vs. Emptiness

Imagine your heart is a cup. If your cup is empty, you'll constantly feel a nagging need for your husband to fill it. You’ll demand his time, attention, and affection, turning love into a source of pressure and anxiety.

Now, imagine your cup is already full. It's overflowing with faith, personal growth, meaningful connections, and self-care. When your husband pours into it, that love doesn't just fill you up—it overflows with joy. It becomes a shared happiness, not a demanded one.

This is what it means to take responsibility for your own contentment. You free your husband from the impossible burden of being your "source of life." His joy and freedom no longer feel like a threat because your own happiness is already grounded and steady.

---

Finding Your Fullness Through Faith

For a wife, this fullness comes from within. It’s nurtured by practices that ground the heart and soul:

• Ibadah: Our prayers, dua, and connection to the Quran fill us with an undeniable peace.

• Personal Growth: Investing in hobbies, learning new skills, and nurturing our creativity.

• Self-Care: Prioritizing rest, health, and emotional balance.

When a wife cultivates these things, she becomes a source of sakinah in her marriage.

What is Sakinah? It’s more than just calmness. The Quran describes it as a special tranquility from Allah that makes the heart steady, even during the most difficult trials.

"It is He who sent down tranquility (sakinah) into the hearts of the believers." (QS Al-Fath 48:4)

---

The Strength of the Believer

This internal strength is also what the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ spoke of when he said:

"The strong believer is better and more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, while there is good in both." (Sahih Muslim, Book 33, Hadith 2664)

This "strength" isn't just physical. It’s an inner resilience built on faith (tawakkul), patience, and emotional willpower. It’s the ability to find your peace in Allah first, so that your happiness isn't fully dependent on others.

So, when I say "seek his attention from fullness," I mean: "I already feel joy, peace, and worth. When you give me attention, it's a sweet addition. But even without it, I remain whole."

What does "fullness" look like in your life? Share your thoughts below.

This Is Love –それが愛だった– · kami xxvoice Japanese + English Lyrics Translation ( This Is Love - What Love Really Meant )

This Is Love –それが愛だった– by kami xxvoice

Original Japanese Lyrics

愛が何か分からなかった

優しくされても

何故か怖かった

でもあなたの目は

傷つくことを恐れず

ただ私をそっと見つめた

 

「大丈夫だよ」って

その言葉だけで

私の心の壁は

ゆっくりと溶けていった

 

This is love

もしもこれが愛ならば

辛くても美しいんだ

壊れそうな夜でも

ひとりじゃないんだと

掴んでくれた手が

今でも温かい

やっと分かった

これが愛なんだ

 

強くなりたいって言ってた

本当は誰より甘えたかった

あなたがくれた愛は

形はなかった

でも一番深くて、リアルで

ダイヤも言葉も

なくてもいいんだと

沈黙の温もりが

すべてだった

 

This is love

言葉なんかじゃ足りない

不器用でも本物なんだ

繋いでた手の記憶が

今でも生きてる

そばにいる気がする

過去も未来も越えて

やっと知った

これが愛なんだ

 

愛は完璧じゃない

それでも離れなかったね

失ってから気付くなんて酷だね

でもあの時は

嘘じゃなかった

あなたの心も、手も、痛みも

全部感じていた

戻れないけど願う、どこかで

あなたの今日が

温かいものでありますように

 

This is love

気付かされたんだ

誰かの幸せを祈れること

それが愛なんだと

たとえ離れても

あなたの名前がまだ胸にある

痛みの中で微笑む

だってこれが愛だった

そう、これが愛だった

 

English Translation

 

I didn't know what love was

When I was treated kindly

For some reason, I was scared

But your eyes

Weren't afraid to get hurt

You just looked at me softly

 

"Are you okay?"

With just those words

The wall around my heart

Slowly melted

 

This is love

If this is love

Even if it's painful, it's beautiful

Even on nights that feel like they're breaking

I'm not alone

The hands that held me

Are still warm now

I finally see

This is love

 

I always said I wanted to be strong

But the truth is, I wanted to be spoiled more than anyone

The love you gave me

Had no shape

But it was the deepest and most real

No diamond, no words

But that was enough

The warmth of silence

Was everything

 

This is love

Words aren't enough

Even if it's clumsy, it's real

The memory of our connected hands

Is still alive

I feel like you're by my side

Transcending the past and future

I finally know

This is love

 

Love ain't perfect

But we still didn't part

It's cruel to realize after losing it, isn't it?

But at that moment

It wasn't a lie

Your heart, your touch, your pain

I felt it all

I can't go back, but I wish, somewhere

That your today

Will be a warm one

 

This is love

I realized that

Being able to pray for someone else's happiness

Is love

Even if we part

Your name is still in my heart

And I smile through the pain

'Cause this was love

Yeah, this was love

The Journey to Peace: How a Prayer and a New Love Taught Me to Trust Again

Title: The Journey to Peace: How a Prayer and a New Love Taught Me to Trust Again

I used to believe love was meant to feel like a storm. My last relationship was full of chaos and loneliness. He pushed me away, communication dwindled, and I felt more alone than ever—even when we were together. He was a master of indirect abandonment, leaving for long periods and never reaching out first.

The breaking point wasn't a big fight; it was a heavy feeling in my heart. The thought of ikhtilat (unnecessary mixing with the opposite gender) made me realize I needed to step back and take care of myself—for my own sake and for Allah's.

Today, I’m in a new relationship, and the contrast is profound. My partner is kind and consistent, and our relationship is filled with a sense of peace. But after living in chaos for so long, this peace felt strange, even unsettling. I've heard the phrase that "peace can feel strange after a storm," and I found myself self-sabotaging—pushing away the very thing I'd prayed for.

I'm learning to catch myself in those moments and remind myself that this new peace is a blessing from Allah, not a threat.

Healing from the Scars

My old wounds haven't disappeared. The scars from my past still affect me, and I'm slowly learning to acknowledge them. This is the first step to healing. By realizing what he did has affected me, I can focus on what truly needs healing. With my current partner, I'm learning to be vulnerable—to gently share my insecurities instead of keeping them inside. His acceptance in those moments has taught me that I am safe with him.

Learning to trust him is the hardest part. The doubts creep in, and the fear of being abandoned again can be overwhelming. But I'm learning that trust is a process, built slowly through small, consistent actions—not on grand gestures.

My Roadmap to Trust and Peace

Here are the practices that have helped me heal and open my heart to this new kind of love:

• Acknowledge the past, but don't let it define your present. My current partner is not the one who hurt me. I remind myself of this every day.

• Communicate openly. Sharing my insecurities has allowed him to understand me better.

• Notice his consistency. I'm learning to pay attention to the small, steady things he does—listening, showing up, and caring in simple ways. These are the bricks that build trust.

• Shift to gratitude. I often make a list of the things I love about him. This simple act helps my heart lean toward love and away from fear.

• Make dua. Ultimately, true trust comes from putting my faith in Allah first. I ask Him to heal my heart and fill our relationship with sakinah (tranquility).

"Ya Allah, heal my heart from old wounds. Grant me strength to trust, patience to love, and wisdom to see the goodness You’ve placed in my partner. Fill our relationship with peace, mercy, and barakah.”

Healing isn’t about erasing the scars; it’s about learning to live with them while opening your heart to love again. I remind myself daily that peace is a blessing from Allah, and it is worth protecting.

May Allah grant us strength to heal, wisdom to see the good in the people we love, and patience to nurture the relationships that bring us closer to Him. Aamiin. 🤍

🌸 Free Crochet Pattern: Leaf Flower Panel with Diagram (Made by Me!)

Assalamualaikum and hello crochet lovers! 

Today I’m super excited to share something very close to my heart — a crochet panel that I not only crocheted myself but also created the diagram for from scratch! This project features a beautiful leaf flower motif in the center, framed by rows of classic stitches to give it a neat, rectangular panel look. It's perfect for table runners, prayer mats, or even as a repeating motif in larger projects like blankets or shawls.

✿ The Design

Here's the diagram:

✿ (Image shown above — my own diagram made from scratch to make sure it match what i crochet (see below pic)....)

✿ The real picture: 

The pattern starts with a foundation chain of 50 chains and works upward row by row. The highlight of the panel is definitely the flower with leaf-shaped petals in the center, created with a combination of chains, double crochets, and puff stitches for texture.

I used white cotton yarn for a clean and classic look — but feel free to use soft pastels or earth tones for a different vibe.

✿ Materials Used

• Hook size: 2.0 mm
• Yarn type & size: Cotton, Size 1.0 (fine/thin cotton yarn)

✿ Important heads up before start crochetting: 

1. Start with 50ch
2. Start your dc at 2nd Ch from the hook (its serve as the border)

Make sure to follow the color.

~ after that you are ready to full speed crocheting 😆

💬 I’d Love Your Feedback!

If you try this pattern, do tag me or leave a comment below — I'd love to see your creations and hear what you think! You’re free to use the diagram for personal use or even share with friends, but please credit me if you post it anywhere. 

Thank you for supporting handmade work and self-made designs like mine 💖

When You Shrink for Love

When Connection Becomes a Burden

Do you ever feel like you’re shrinking? Like a little piece of you disappears when you feel disconnected from someone you want to be close to?

That feeling, that sense of becoming smaller, is a sign that the connection you crave simply isn’t available right now. And the best thing you can do for yourself is to turn off your own connection device.

This doesn’t mean cutting yourself off completely. It’s a deliberate choice to pause. It's your chance to rebuild, to rest, and to do what brings you peace. When your connection is constantly "on," you become restless, chasing a feeling that isn't there. It’s not only okay to disconnect for a while—it’s necessary.

It takes courage to choose to go "off." But when you do, and you're finally ready to reconnect, the bond will feel more genuine. You'll enjoy it more, free from the emotional exhaustion of forcing a connection that doesn't want to flow. You deserve connections that are effortless, not ones that make you chase or shrink.

---

A Stronger Love

Sometimes, the strongest way to love yourself—and others—is to choose to rest.

Remember to live for Allah, not for your husband. While your husband's satisfaction is a path to Allah's pleasure, don't let that become your entire purpose. Your husband is a gift from Allah, and to Allah, he will return. You don't own him, and you don't belong to him. You belong to Allah alone.

Fitrah Tauhid: Asal Usul Jiwa yang Mengenal Allah

Setiap manusia lahir dalam keadaan suci. Jiwa mereka kosong dari dosa, tapi penuh dengan satu naluri semula jadi: mengenal Tuhan yang satu — Allah. Naluri inilah yang dipanggil sebagai fitrah tauhid.

🌿 Apa Itu Fitrah?

Fitrah ialah asal kejadian semula jadi manusia — ia bukan sesuatu yang diajar, tetapi dibekalkan oleh Allah sejak dalam kandungan ibu.

“Setiap anak dilahirkan atas fitrah (Islam), maka kedua ibu bapanya yang menjadikan dia Yahudi, Nasrani atau Majusi.”
— Hadis Riwayat Bukhari & Muslim

Semua manusia — tidak kira bangsa atau negara — dilahirkan dengan kepercayaan semula jadi bahawa Tuhan itu wujud, dan Tuhan itu satu.

🌙 Apa Itu Fitrah Tauhid?

Fitrah tauhid ialah bahagian dari fitrah manusia yang secara semula jadi:

• Mengakui bahawa Allah itu Esa.
• Tahu bahawa semua yang ada di dunia ini ada Penciptanya.
• Mempunyai rasa bergantung, takut, harap dan rindu kepada Allah.

Fitrah ini adalah pencarian kepada kebenaran, dan bila ia disokong dengan ilmu dan iman, hati akan menjadi tenang dan yakin.

🔍 Contoh Fitrah Tauhid Dalam Kehidupan Harian

• Doa spontan bila terdesak: Orang yang tak solat pun, bila terdesak, akan berkata “Ya Allah, tolong aku!”
• Kanak-kanak takut buat salah: Walaupun belum diajar, mereka tahu perbuatan salah tu salah.
• Hati tersentuh bila dengar zikir: Walaupun jauh dari agama, jiwa tetap rasa tenang bila dengar alunan Al-Quran.

💔 Bila Fitrah Diselaputi...

Fitrah tauhid boleh menjadi kabur bila:

• Dikelilingi maksiat atau ajaran salah
• Dibesarkan tanpa didikan iman
• Ikut nafsu, dunia atau syaitan

Namun fitrah tak mati. Ia cuma tidur. Bila Allah izinkan, ia boleh terjaga semula. ❤️

✨ Kembali Kepada Fitrah

“Maka hadapkanlah wajahmu dengan lurus kepada agama Allah; (tetaplah atas) fitrah Allah yang telah menciptakan manusia menurut fitrah itu. Tidak ada perubahan pada ciptaan Allah.”
— Surah Ar-Rum 30:30

Kembali kepada fitrah bermula dengan:

• Mencari ilmu & mengenal Allah
• Merenung ciptaan-Nya
• Berzikir dan berdoa dengan hati yang jujur
• Jujur dengan diri sendiri: Siapa aku? Dari mana aku datang? Ke mana aku akan pergi?

🌸 Penutup

Fitrah tauhid ialah bukti bahawa kita semua pernah mengenal Allah. Bila hati kembali mencari-Nya, fitrah akan membawa kita kepada hidayah.

“Sesungguhnya dalam hati manusia ada kekosongan yang tidak akan diisi kecuali dengan mengenal Allah.”
— Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah

Semoga kita semua terus disinari cahaya fitrah dan tidak jauh dari Tuhan yang menciptakan kita. 🤍

Selawat Miftahur Rahmah (Pembuka Rahmat)

MasyaAllah, doa selawat yang sangat indah dan penuh makna.

Selawat ini dikenali sebagai Selawat Miftahur Rahmah (Pembuka Rahmat). Ia membawa maksud yang mendalam tentang kecintaan kepada Rasulullah ﷺ dan pengharapan kepada rahmat Allah yang luas.

Maksud secara umum:

“Ya Allah, limpahkanlah selawat dan salam ke atas junjungan kami Nabi Muhammad, kunci pembuka rahmat Allah, sebanyak bilangan yang ada dalam ilmu Allah, selawat dan salam yang berterusan selama-lamanya, dengan kekalnya kerajaan Allah.”

Selawat ini bukan sahaja memohon rahmat, malah ia satu bentuk zikir yang sangat kuat kesannya dalam melapangkan hati, menjemput keberkatan, dan menjadi sebab turunnya rahmat dalam hidup kita. Bila diamalkan dengan ikhlas, ia memberi kekuatan luar biasa untuk hadapi apa saja ujian.

Habib Ali Zaenal Abidin menceritakan, ijazah pertama yang Beliau terima daripada gurunya Al Habib Umar bin Hafidz adalah ijazah selawat Al Habib Ali bin Muhammad bin Hussein Al-Habsyi seperti gambar diatas.

Dibaca 300 kali setiap hari. Mudah²an dimudahkan segala kesulitan dan dicukupkan kekurangan.

Teruskan amal selawat ni ya… kadang satu selawat boleh jadi penyebab Allah permudahkan seluruh urusan kita. 🌹

I Remember, But I No Longer Bleed 🌸

🌸 I Remember, But I No Longer Bleed

A journey of healing, growth, and grace

There were moments I thought I wouldn’t make it through.
Memories that used to feel like knives in my chest—
they still visit me, but now… I don’t fear them.
I let the tears come.
Not because I’m broken,
but because I’m brave enough to feel them without letting them own me.

I forgave him.
Because he apologized, he changed, and he grew.
But more than that…
I forgave myself.
For staying, for struggling, for believing in something better.
And I was right—because we’re here now, and we’re different.
Better.
Wiser.

I could have kept him frozen in his worst moments.
But I chose not to.
Because love, real love, is not about punishment.
It’s about release.
And I refused to be cruel to someone who is no longer who he once was.

I thank Allah—for guiding my heart toward peace.
And I thank myself—for not giving up on healing.
For crying when I needed to,
for standing again when it was hard,
for choosing softness without forgetting my worth.

I am not the pain I went through.
I am the woman who walked through it,
and came out more alive.

🌸 My New Skincare Journey with Budget-Friendly Gems 🌸 - Watson's Edition

Assalamualaikum and hi beauties!

Lately, I’ve been on a mission to revamp my acne type skincare routine—but without breaking the bank. After doing some research (hours of research 😅), I finally picked up a new set of products that are not only affordable but also have great reviews. Here’s a little peek into my current skincare lineup:

✨ Wardah Perfect Bright Face Wash 🛒 Shop

This face wash gives a gentle cleanse without making my skin feel tight. It helps remove excess oil and dullness—perfect for daily use. There's a blueberry smell after face wash, i like it.

🌊 Wardah Lightening Face Toner 🛒 Shop

I love how refreshing this toner feels! A few drops on the cotton pad, and it preps my skin nicely after cleansing and has brightening properties too.

☀️ Wardah Aqua Fresh Sunscreen Serum SPF 50+ 🛒 Shop

A two-in-one win! It’s lightweight, non-sticky, great smell, no white cast as well and gives great sun protection while keeping my skin hydrated. For my muslimah buddies, this sunscreen is easily remove, as it is not a waterproof sunscreen, and can be wash with water only a few times, and we are good to take wudu'. Thank me later.

💧 Glad2Glow Niacinamide Power Bright Serum 🛒 Shop

Super affordable and surprisingly effective. It helps reduce dullness and evens out my skin tone.

🌿 Alia Salicylic Acid 0.5% Moisturiser 🛒 Shop

This one's great for keeping acne at bay while still hydrating my skin. Very gentle too! 

🌟 Safi Youth Gold Retinol 🛒 Shop

My first time trying retinol. It’s beginner-friendly and so far no irritation. I’m excited to see long-term results! It does not sting too.

Done exposing my skincare product, so move on to some of my routine for my acne skin type, hope it helps.

🌞 Morning Routine

• Face wash – Coin-sized amount
• Toner – Apply with hands (pat in) or cotton pad (swipe gently)
• Niacinamide serum – 2–3 drops or pea-sized
• Salicylic moisturizer – Pea to nickel-sized
• Sunscreen – Two fingers length (index + middle)

💡 Toner Tip:

If it's hydrating, it helps prep the skin for serums.
If it's exfoliating, avoid using it with retinol or harsh acids.

🌙 Night Routine

• Face wash – Cleanse away dirt and sunscreen.
• Retinol – Apply on dry skin; use only 2–3 times per week if you're new to it.
• Niacinamide serum – Use after retinol to soothe and support skin barrier.
• Salicylic moisturizer – Lock in moisture and target acne.

Another tips, i use a small hand fan to help the product absorbs (tap2 your skin) & dry faster, especially during the working days when we got less time to do skin prep before make up.

Honestly, I feel so much better knowing that good skincare doesn’t always mean expensive skincare. These products are all easy to find in local drugstores or online, and they fit nicely into my routine.

If you’re just starting your skincare journey or looking to switch things up without spending too much, maybe this lineup could work for you too! 💛

Have you tried any of these products? Share your thoughts or budget-friendly favourites in the comments! Might as well comment to guess how much do i spend on all of this product...hehe surprise.
