Ramazan Kareem, everyone!!💫

I know it's a bit late but..

• This month always feels different. It’s not just about fasting—it’s about resetting, realigning, and striving to become better. For me, this Ramazan is a time to confront the challenges I've been avoiding for far too long.

• I’ve felt like an outcast in my own hometown—skipping college, procrastinating, and staying up until around 4 AM. These habits have left me lost in purpose, direction, and overwhelmed by underconfidence and insecurities. I’ve had my fair share of disagreements with family because I just don’t fit into the usual expectations, and I’ve struggled with a deep, personal philosophical crisis. I’ve always asked myself simple questions that go deep: Am I only a Muslim because of my parents? What ground do I have for my beliefs? What proof do I have that this is the right path? While many accept their faith without questioning, I refuse to follow blindly. I need to understand my beliefs, not just inherit them.

• I know I have to change. I need to step out of my comfort zone, even if that means struggling and failing along the way, to build real-life skills that will truly shape me into the person I want to become. I’m seriously considering moving to a new city, exploring other universities, and finally embracing a life that challenges me rather than confines me to the same old cycle.

• At the same time, I’m diving deeper into my faith. Islam itself encourages us to seek truth and understand the world around us. The Quran reminds us:

"Do they not reflect upon themselves? Allah created the heavens and the earth and everything between them in truth and for an appointed term. Yet many people deny they will meet their Lord." (Quran 30:8)

• This verse shows that questioning and reflection are not signs of weakness, but rather the path to genuine understanding and certainty. My journey isn’t about doubting for the sake of doubt—it’s about seeking real evidence and clarity in my faith. It's for my own good that I need to perform for my own faith..

• And this isn’t just for Muslims. Whether you follow a different belief or none at all, the search for truth, self-improvement, and a meaningful life is universal. If you’ve ever felt lost or out of place, know that you’re not alone in this quest.

• I pray that this month brings us all peace, clarity, and strength. May our prayers be answered, our struggles eased, and our blessings multiplied. Let’s use this time to grow—not just spiritually, but in every way possible.

Wishing you all a meaningful and blessed Ramazan!🥳

I know i could say more but this is what I had for now i guess..Have a good day ahead!!

(Side note: When it comes to workouts, while fasting it’s wise not to push too hard. The goal for this month is consistency—even light exercise is enough to keep the habit alive until we can build it up later.)
