دروس و عِبَر من العلاقات

Unlearning and debunking relationship myths: Relationship concepts and “standards” evolve, just like everything else does.

We all need a strategy to control our everyday desires before they enslave us. Asking ourselves the right questions can help identify meaningless, or unnecessary, desires. Forgot to add that we should also ask “why? Why do I want [to do] …?” and “what happens if I don’t [do] ….?” Having no clear answer is an answer: it’s just not that necessary / you don’t really need it / there’s no higher purpose of your pursuing the thing.

One year later and here we are again in Ankara🤭 feels ambiguous tbh, and definitely not like the previous times. First time experiencing Ankara “stress-free” (cuz no more uni) but subhanAllah the stress still manages to stress in cuz it’s stressful to be without family!!

Sharing some learned lessons and myths about relationships

Inspired from my current read: The Barakah Effect, which navigates the differences between Barakah Culture and Hustle Culture, and how we live in a world that promotes Hustle Culture.
