The greatest challenge I've ever faced in my life was beginning to believe in myself after I felt like all had been lost. ⁠

⁠
When you lose faith and trust in yourself and everything around you, things begin to look pretty dark. It can feel like there's no one who understands where you're at and can possibly help you through the mud you're in. If you're in this place right now, I want you to hear what I'm about to say next.⁠
⁠
No matter how bad it gets, deep within you lives a light that cannot be extinguished. ⁠
⁠
Some call it hope. Others call it courage. I think it may be different for everyone. But for me, it was resilience. It has always been there and no matter what was happening in my life, no matter how bad it seemed, I knew that if I just kept on moving forward, I would find my way out of the mud. ⁠
⁠
You will too.⁠
⁠
To find this spark again, you need to quiet everything down around you - all of the voices, judgements and people - and reach deep within yourself and remind yourself of who you are beyond the fleeting opinions of the outside world.⁠
⁠
Reach in and hold your dreams again. See how you have survived everything that's ever come your way. Give yourself credit for still being here. And then, find that one reason why it's going to be worth it for you to keep on moving forward. ⁠
⁠
That's all you need.⁠

The Painful Reality of Life: When the Rain Stops, the Umbrella Becomes a Burden

Life often teaches us some of its harshest lessons through the simplest of metaphors. Consider the umbrella, a faithful companion during a storm. It shelters us, keeps us dry, and provides comfort against the elements. But once the rain ceases, that very umbrella, so crucial moments ago, becomes a cumbersome burden. This transition captures a painful truth about loyalty and human relationships: when the benefits cease, so too does the loyalty. In our lives, many people flock to us not for who we are but for the value we bring and the benefits they can derive from us. They thrive on the opportunities, support, and advantages we offer. As long as we are useful, as long as we can provide shelter from life's storms, we are cherished and needed. But when the rain stops—when the benefits diminish—these same people often disappear, leaving us to ponder the true nature of our connections. This realization can be incredibly disheartening. We yearn for genuine relationships, for loyalty that...

My 96-Hour Goose Chase

A few days ago, I embarked on a journey I never imagined I would experience. It all started with a simple goal: to clear a small debt that had been weighing on me. I thought that taking a small loan would be the best solution to get back on my feet and settle everything. Little did I know that this decision would lead me into a 96-hour goose chase that cost me time, money, and trust. I began my search for a loan online, and after some browsing, I came across a Finance company that seemed legitimate. I reached out to them, eager to resolve my situation. After completing all the necessary forms on their website, they informed me that my credit score was low and, therefore, I wouldn't be approved for the loan unless I paid an upfront amount equal to one month's repayment (450 AED). They assured me that this amount would be refunded once the loan was processed and credited to my account. Naively, I rushed to the ATM to deposit the requested amount. Here's a breakdown of what fo...
