Guard Your Heart.

“Don’t think for a moment that your heart is ‘strong’. 
The heart is a vulnerable fool. 
It turns more easily than you turn your head. 
That’s why its called ‘qalb’ (that which turns). 
Protect it with layer upon layer of guards. 
And the only guard is the *consistent* remembrance of God. "
- Yasmin Mogahed


“I like people and I like them to like me, 
but I wear my heart where God put it, on the inside."
- F. Scott Firzgerald

Assalamualaikum Silent reader(s) ;-)

“Time for solitude. God, I ask you to remake my heart. 
Fill it with what You love.
 Remove from it what You don’t. 
And mend what I’ve broken.”

Aamiin Ya Rabb

' Wear your heart on your sleeve '

In a good view, it represents that your honest 
and willing to open your heart to that person. 
But its also a bad thing,
because you can easily have your heart broken
and be hurt emotionally.

I am someone who wears my heart inside, 
I am not saying that I am not honest to people,
but I think it is best to keep most of the things inside,
and ask for God to remake your heart :)

Some might say that I am weak, a coward, for not
standing up for myself, for not saying things that people
deserve to hear from me, but no, I don't see myself as one.
I play things wisely, and I think it is wise to play mute 
once in a while ;)

Once people know the condition of your heart,
you are in deeeeeeep trouble bro/sis. 
Why? They might use it against you.

Metaphorically speaking, our heart is like a glass;
transparent & easily broken. 
This means that by wearing your heart on your sleeve
ain't a great idea my friend.

In order to 'upgrade' our heart, fill it with the remembrance of God,
because by the remembrance of God is when our heart functions best ;)
For instance, you come across someone you have issues with from the past, 
 at first the only thing that you'll feel is hatred. But by remembering God,
your heart wouldn't feel anything other than.........goodness :)
