"It was very releiving and interesting. I even wanted to write a letter to someone then I remembered all our good moments so I erased it (I did not say anything bad in the erased letter though). I hope this challenge lasts for at least another week since I feel I can write a lot of unread letters" – So glad you had a good experience from the first day! 🙂
"A situation happened today where I got upset and I said something hurtful as a fast reaction. Later I wrote a letter to that person apologising and explaining what made me angry, but I didn't send it. I tried to fix the situation in an indirect way." – Love how you used the letter to help in fixing the situation later on. That's beautiful.
"I loved how i wrote just a sentence that sums up what i really wanna say." – Feels so powerful!!
"It was very interesting , i hope that i can send what i want to say really but then i realized that it’ll be useless. So to write and unsend it will be helpful for releiving." – Indeed! The words we want to say will often continue to weigh us down even if we aren't conscious of it. So I'm really glad that just letting them out was helpful for you. :')
"انا بعمل كده علطول .. فدايما بيخلينى احس انى اخف وواوقات بيضايقنى زياده لانى بحس انى متكتفه وعاوزة اللى قدامى يعرف اللى انا كتباه .. وكتير بلبس نفسى فى الحيه واروح اقوله ..وكتير بيفضل بس ع الورق .. المهم ان كتابه الجوابات بتخلينى اوصل لقرار سواء بالكلام او بالسكاات .. 🧡💙💚❤️" – دي حاجة جميلة أوي أوي بجد، انك دايما بتوصلي لقرار 🙂 الحمد لله
"it feels very relaxing for me since I can say whatever I can to anyone. it makes me direct my thoughts to a certain issue and helps me think more about it." – I'm really happy you're enjoying this! Writing letters has always been one of my favorite journaling techniques for pretty much the same reasons.
" اكتشفت و انبهرت إن عندي كلااام كتييير أقوله للناس المهمين في حياتي، للناس اللي بحبهم، عندي كمية مشاعر دافية اووووي ليهم، أد إيه بجد احنا مخبين كلام و كاتمين كلام ليهم، اللي هو لما احنا مش هنقولهم الكلام ده دلوقتي اما هنقوله امته، لما مش هنقولهم الكلام ده و هم عايشين و احنا عايشين هنقوله امته، هنقوله بعد فوات الآمان و هنتمنى لو الوقت يرجع ،لييه دايما الكلام الحلو بنقوله بعد فوات الأوان، الصراحة إني قررت اني أخليهم يقرأوا الكلام اللي كتباه ليهم، ده حقهم علياه، اي نعم مش هقدر ابعته مرة واحدة بس ع الاقل هقسمه اجزاء كده واحدة واحدة" – :') انتي جميلة. مبسوطة ان ده حاسسك انك عايزة تعرفيه للناس اللي في حياتك. تذكرة قوية لينا كلنا اننا نعبر للناس عن مشاعرنا ليهم حقيقي 🙂
"Never a line 😄" – Yay you!
"a line or more. I don't exceed a paragraph usually." – That's awesome.
"3 or 4 lines maximum:(( I am having exams and trying to keep writing no matter what😇😆" – 3/4 lines is GREAT! Don't feel bad about it at all, as long as you write anything!
"It ends up with more than one line ❤️" – I'm glad :')
"More than a line 🙏🏻" – 😍😍
"Since I started writing most of the days, I feel that I am more positive and my mind is peaceful الحمد لله and I feel so so soo grateful for you about this,THANK YOUUU!!🥰" – That is wonderful to know! Thank you for sharing this, and I'm so grateful you're part of this journey! 😍
"I couldn’t write today as my last couple of letters were emotionally draining. I needed a break." – I'm really sorry your experience has been emotionally draining, and really glad you decided to do what's best for you when you needed it. I hope you feel better. ❤️
"شوفت بوست فيه جزء من ايه "و من يؤمن بالله يهد قلبه و الله بكل شئ عليم" فحسيت الله أنا نفسي جدااا يهدي قلبي أعمل ايه بقى؟ فشوفت تفسير بن كثير " قال بن عباس: ومن أصابته مصيبة فعلم أنها بقضاء الله وقدره ، فصبر واحتسب، واستسلم لقضاء الله ، هدى الله قلبه، وعوضه عما فاته من الدنيا هدى في قلبه، ويقينا صادقا، وقد يخلف عليه ما كان أخذ منه، أو خيرا منه." و تأثرت جدا عشان أنا مؤخرا كنت بفكر في الصبر كتير و قد إيه صعب فربنا يهدينا و يثبتنا و يعينا على الصبر. الحمد لله"– أنا تأثرت جدا وانا باقرا الكلام ده وفعلا فعلا كنت محتاجاه فشكرا انك شاركتينا :")
"Sometimes i have to give up even if it will hurt, but i have to move on" – Wow. That's a big realization.
"I would definitely go for that since I can find enough inspirations to write easily in that topic"
"I would like to do it again next week.. I still want to explore it more 🥰"
– Alright let's do it!
"Acually all of them Specially, The letter to my inner part that makes me feel insecure. Letters to God." – Beautiful!!
"I can say the letter to my old friends. It made me think about them again and express my feelings to them." – Awww I think I can relate :')
"I wrote a letter to death and that was a deep one 🙈 I think this will be part of my healing process in this fear of being lonely thing 🥰🙏🏻 And my favorite was another letter sent to my aunt who died 11 years ago, and I actually didn’t realize how much I miss her and how much I loved her and how significant she was in my life until I wrote her that letter ♥️ ربنا يرحمها يارب 🙏🏻🙏🏻" – Woah. Now I understand why you needed the break! أمين يارب ربنا يرحمها. I genuinely hope you're able to heal. And thank you for sharing.
"لبابا حبيبى ربنا يرحمه ♥️♥️" – ربنا يرحمه يارب
"It's very interesting for me to observe how my over-inflated critical voice is handling this. Like, "do you really call this writing?" One line? What's one line? That's nothing!" So, I think this is gonna be a good exercise for me in that regard. Cherishing the little things I do and acknowledging them." – One line is A LOT! I hope you're able to let that sink in. :') ❤️
"Today, I decided to finally write about one of the challenges I have been struggling with for months but felt too guilty to write about. It felt soo good to finally finally let it all out. I still feel guilty but not as much. I wrote 8 pages and my hand really hurts but I am truly grateful for my safe space. What a blessing that is. الحمد لله والله" – Woah. I'm so glad you felt better letting it out. 8 pages, wow. You are definitely a blessing. 🙂
