I learned the meaning of love the day I started to pray. I realised love means to show up, every day, every time. No matter what, no matter how you feel, love is just "being there'. Love is being committed. No matter how you feel confused, tired, depressed, never abandon Salah.

“I feel unspeakably lonely. And I feel - drained. It is a blank state of mind and soul I cannot describe to you as I think it would not make any difference.

I am often questioning myself what I further want to do, who I further wish to be; which parts of me, exactly, are still functioning properly. No answers, darling. At all.”

— Anne Sexton
