A Monday

 Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullah. :) How are you?


I'm now at the hospital, but no worries. I get an injection medicine every three weeks, so that's why I need to come here. It's kinda calming also.. I feel like I'm in a good care, thanks to the nurses. 


...


It's important to take care of your mental health. Firstly, have to take care of the basics: sleep, eat, exercise. Avoiding stress. For me, I like to keep my home peaceful and clean so I have a good environment to start with. Sleeping enough, eating good, healthy food (and maybe some treats here and there..), and going to gym and walks work for me. It's important to have routines and rhythm. It gives a frame to days.

I start my day by drinking tea, then if I don't have work I eat some lunch, or go to gym in the morning, then I go to market if I need to. Then I do some home chores or I meet my friends, or if I have other things to do. Then in evenings I have an option to go for a walk or then I just relax and watch tv etc. And I'm happy with my life. I am maybe a simple person, I enjoy simple things. Only love still missing.. 


...


Everything has been better, alhamdulillah. I have a lot less anxiety and I feel more confident again, alhamdulillah. It kinda goes in cycles, sometimes it's easier and sometimes it might be more challenging. I feel like I can affect in it to some level, but in the end it is not in my hands. All I can do is keep working for better health, and hope it will lead to results. But alhamdulillah, now things feel easier.


I do want to start to date again. I was supposed to be alone still, but I feel like, can I ever be ready enough? Maybe if I meet the right person I will be ready. But I want to take time and not rush into any relationship just for the sake of being with someone. Marriage is an important issue and not to take lightly. I don't want to end up divorcing again, I really want to find a person I can live my life with. In sha Allah.


...


I hope you all will have a good start for the week. And thank you for reading! I see in the statistics that I have many readers from all the way in Singapore.. ma sha Allah! I hope you are all doing fine and well.


Later then,



Aisha

Good to see you

 Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh dears :) how are you doing? It's the endless promising that I will write more often.. I don't know why it is like this. But I'm really happy to see that you, dear readers, come back even though my lack of consistency. I can only promise to try to be better ;) I have been a little sick and even now I'm having some migraine symptoms. I've been in flu and had sore throat. Usually I'm physically healthy so this has stressed me out a bit. But alhamdulillah, getting better just in time for Ramadan. :) ... So yes. I have some news.. I got married ♡♡ I'm happy and it feels easy. We are still a bit strangers, we got married fast, so it's a bit of a learning process still. My husband is very sweet and takes care of me. It's the small things, he helps at home, always brings something when he comes (we are not living together yet), and gives compliments and intimacy. Alhamdulillah. Everyone have their misdeeds and m

Night time thoughts

-
 Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. How are you? I am stressing about some personal issues, so can't sleep. So, I'm making a cup of coffee, planning to stay up all night. And go market in the morning. I have the luxury to take a nap later, so staying up tonight is not a problem. This happens for me sometimes, I just have to stay awake all night. Night is good time for writing, as I feel a bit more creative. The vibe is different and the stimulation of outside world has shut down. ... What would I write then? I want to write about Palestine, I want to write about Sudan, Congo.. Afghanistan. Kashmir, Uighur muslims, Rohingya sisters and brothers.. Yemen, Syria. And more, that I know or don't, yet. The world is burning because of Western democracy, which means white supremacy and colonization. Certain countries supporting each other in this atrocity. Even Finland, a nordic, "real democracy", the "happiest country in the world", is delivering gun

 Assalamu aleikum everyone! 😊❤ How are you doing? It feels great to start over. For those who don't know, I used to write a blog with the same title, "Cup of tea with Aisha", for around five years until I decided to demolish the whole thing. 😌 And it felt good. It was one part of my journey, finding myself and healing, and also about all the stumbling along the way. But now that part, is a part of the past. I'm still on that same journey, but on another level - a lot has happened and changed. So this is it, same me but maybe a different perspective.. I hope that with sharing my thoughts and insights, you may find yourself not feeling alone with yours. ❤ in sha Allah. ... In my profile, I tell I write about daily life, food, beauty, travel, islam, mental health and relationships. So, for an introduction, here's a brief 411 of these subjects in my life.. Daily life Right now, my daily life is very simple. In Finland everyone starts by asking about work or school,
