Metropolitan Muslimah

Bismillah.

Yo, I can’t even.

It’s been a crazy ride into this new year with this new role and I feel like I’ve been doing insanely terribly.

Meow meow meow.

I think I had a good rest today and I feel like going back to blogging again.

I know, right, after years of sparsely doing so.

It hasn’t been easy for me but I get by.

I’ll just have to take it one step at a time and be a whole lot kinder to myself.

To be honest, I have forgotten a lot of promises/resolutions/routines/intentions I have made earlier this year. There never seemed to be time for me to address anything in my personal life.

Went through multiple phases of emotional unwellness only because I kept stifling them.

Honestly though, I still don’t feel like talking and I think I’m okay with allowing myself more time. If I never feel like talking, I’m still okay with it.

Back to this new role shindig. It’s been interesting, difficult, and bewildering. Definitely will take a lot of adjusting to.

Yet, at the same time, oddly enough and to much of my bemusement, I feel like I fit this role.

I don’t feel out of place but I just feel all over the place.

Until I have found my footing, I better strap in tight and take the ride!

And Allah is Ar-Rahman, The Most Merciful. – MM
