The one thing I have struggled with the most is praying. I was born and raised muslim but I guess that's the one thing that never stuck. You'd think going to an islamic school would've helped me keep on track with praying, but I went through a rough batch through that when I was growing up and lost all my motivation for praying and couldn't find it again for years. But, thankfully I have used this past Ramadan to help myself become a better muslim and pray. I even kept a streak for 10 days!! Of course, they weren't always on time since I am getting back to it but I was really proud of myself either way :) but sadly, I lost my streak for 3 days now so I need to make those up and get back to it!! I am trying to think of it as a struggle instead of a failure because I am still trying and that should count. I don't know if these make-ups even count but I think it will help me in motivating me to do it everyday and even on time since praying it all together is much harder than doing it once every few hours. Right now, I keep remembering how easy it was to not pray and that makes it really hard but then I try to think about how amazing it feels when I do pray and how much closer I feel to Allah (swt) and it helps. I hope if everyone else is struggling with this, they can find the strength and courage to better themselves! Anyways, I promise my next post will be more interesting. I just wanted to start writing today because I have been putting this off for a while :)) (April 2, 204)
