You know, them wanting to be alone is always the response I get but sometimes it is hard to understand that because I myself would want them there.

It is just really hard to deal with a past, when people it seems don’t know how to forgive and forget. It makes it even harder when you feel that you deserve an apology as well. Sometimes I wish I didn’t have to face my problems but I know the hardest part is facing them with humility and not expecting anything in return.

Anyways ukhti, I really appreciate your words. May Allaah love you and your family, aameen

As for the bit about being there for your friend.. sometimes ukhtee, its not really fault, its not a flaw in us that turns them away from us. Sometimes in sorrow, some people prefer to be alone and not have anyone around.. not even their best friends. Don’t blame yourself for it : ) The best gift and comfort you can give your friend is du`aa behind their back.

And the past, it will always catch up with you. Every once in a while we’re faced with a situation which reminds us of a troubling past but it happens for a reason. I believe it is to teach us a lesson, so we can derive some benefit from it.. comparing the past with present also helps.

But one amazing blessing we have as human beings is that we don’t remember everything. Man is forgetful. That’s how Allaah created us. There’s so much wisdom in that subhaan’Allaah. Imagine if we were to remember every bit of our past, we’d be wallowing in pain and bordering on insanity.

Love you sis.
wassalaamu`alaykum wa rahmatullaah.
