Sleep for days

-

 Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh dears :) how's your week started?


I am well slept but also endlessly tired. I got my monthly dose of medicine yesterday and one of the side effects is tiredness. I'm talking about went-to-sleep-at-eight-and-woke-up-at-ten-the-next-day sleepiness.. I feel all the time that I just want to sleep, and then the sleep doesn't actually even help. I just need to push through few days and it will pass in sha Allah.

Everything is fine, alhamdulillah. Something I have been thinking past days, is scars and how to deal with them. Not talking about Bio oil, but more of acceptance. I had a nice little chat with a nurse yesterday, and she said that I seem to be so fine with my illness. And I guess it is so. What comes to the illness, traumas, break ups, losses.. just have to accept things how they are. I also try to make an effort to accept myself daily, what comes to my body, my flaws, my shortcomings.. because only so few things are changeable in reality. I'm not talking against improvement and growing as a person though, of course it's good to try to be better every day. But what I mean is that making effort for better shouldn't become overwhelming, or have the goals set up too high. Just easy easy.. giving time and space for yourself to actually grow. A flower doesn't bloom quicker if you try to open the petals by force. Warmth, fresh air, water.. :)

My husband just came home and I need to go prepare dinner.. today we eat just easy food, some chicken, French fries and salad. Rest of the day I will be relaxing and going again sleep early in sha Allah.

I'm preparing a look on the spring 2025 trends (hijab friendly) so stay tuned, I'll try to make actual content too lol. Take care and have a nice evening,



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...

Hello hello!

 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, ...

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...
