Hi this penpal thing is such a great idea
I’m actually struggling so hard right now, especially religiously
I’ve always been one to be “aware” about everything around me, and lately It has come to my attention that I’ve not been committed religiously, if that’s the right word
And it hasn’t been easy, like i’m not trying to be better, but it’s just me blaming myself/ yelling at myself, which is how i’ve always been dealing with my issues, and it’s so suffocating like I just don’t want to be here anymore
So you are falling short of your expectations from yourself in a spiritual capacity? Is that what it is?
Is there a lapse in the duty aspect of your life that you're holding yourself accountable for?
One thing I learnt about spirituality is self love. I believe god wants us to love ourselves, forgive our selves, treat ourselves gently, while striving to purify ourselves. You deserve compassion. You are a loved being made by god and Im sure the god you believe in wants you to appreciate yourself as well while introspecting for changes.
That's my understanding. Do you want to tell me what specifically is bothering you about your actions? Only if you feel comfortable.
Much love ❤️

Well I did fall short in one aspect of my worship guides, and that made me feel so guilty and disgusted with myself,
But the thing is now I’m not thinking about that one fall anymore, I’m looking at every other aspect in life, blaming myself for every fall
Even things that never crossed my mind before, they’re attacking me so heavily
It’s like I can’t have any moment of peace
Seems like youre being too hard on yourself ?
I dont think god expects us to be perfect right? What do you feel?
@Mia6600
I don’t know. I think I’m too flawed to deserve mercy
god is more merciful than we sometimes perceive. Hang in there my friend. With patience and persistence you'll see the pleasure of your lord upon you. Insha Allah...
@Mia6600
I’m trying to hold on as much as I can
I used to be really hard on myself....
But things changed when I started seeing god as someone who didnt expect perfection from its creation but someone who was ever ready to give second and third chances.... Allahs might and power and love are way beyond our capacity of imagination.... i pray things start feeling better... but meanwhile you keep using the faculties your god has bestowed on you to your best ability... you are loved ❤️
