Having my mum in Kano gives me such a strong sense of security and safety. I really don’t want her to leave. Just knowing she’s here makes me feel more at ease.
i am begging some of you to become ok with hearing not-so-great-things about yourself. especially if it is coming from a loved one that historically respects your agency. chances are you unknowingly crossed a boundary & someone is trying to tell you in a respectful way.
At this point, I need to make friends in Kano. My sister is always either tired, busy, or in school whenever I want to go out, and I hate going out by myself.
To my Baba, who spent a lifetime sacrificing, striving, and enduring so much to give us a good life and quality education. May Allah reward him beyond measure and grant him the best in this world and the Hereafter. Ameen🤍
