I recall an intro to a song from over a decade ago as it sparked many conversations, and at that time of my life I agreed with it . The intro was taken from a TV show and it went something like this: 'I don’t want hope, hope is killing me, my dream is to become hopeless, because when you’re hopeless you don’t care, and when you don’t care that indifference makes you attractive' . The general sentiment from discussions with friends was having hope was a painful and sometimes cruel state of mind. However, over time this view didn’t sit well with me. In fact, this aya to me makes me realize there is nothing so beautiful than to have hope as long as we turn to Allah for this hope. We know nothing is impossible for Allah so hope makes sense and it cannot be painful or cruel. I have gone from losing hope about ever getting married to turning to Allah with hope.. and this change has truly altered the heaviness in my heart.. Alhamdulilah..
