Nolan's framing of "Zeus' law" as the institutional foundation of a functional society, and what happens when that foundation is broken by men with an insatiable lust for power, wasn't lost on me.
Fitting for the time we are in.
You guys don’t understand how insane fantasy is 😭
Someone really sat down and created an entire world from their imagination. Whole continents. Histories. Languages. Magic.
I love fantasy so much.
Allow her explore the world no matter how cruel it gets— allow her to eventually make mistakes and well. . . get wounded at some point. My Haneen— my heart, and my soul. I love you.☹️🥺
I am so in love with my daughter today. Perhaps I am still not done processing the effect of The Ocean Would Paint Me Blue to me. Makes me want to protect her from the possible hurt that this dunya may cause her. But I also know there will be a time that I’ll need to let her go.
There is a certain type of tiredness that one cannot recover from. No matter the amount of rest. Sometimes you don’t even know what you’re tired of. Just tired.
How beautiful and forgiving a heart can be. After all the betrayal. The shouting. The anger and hatred. In the end, you still find yourself forgiving the people who cause you pain.
I love watching women reclaiming their glow after a heartbreak. Reclaiming their energy. Their old selves back. Or even better. Stronger version of themselves. Pain changes people indeed.🤌🏻
The truth is, people don’t care as much as you think they do about you. Positively or negatively. No one is that available for other people. We all are busy fighting our own battles— trying to win our own wars.
Tawakkul is a very beautiful concept. You do your part. You exhaust all the remedies. You just basically give it your all. And then you leave all your affairs to Allāh. You’ve already made peace w/ whatever that’s bound to happen. Regardless if it’s according to your plan or not.
