Day 1:

Allah, please grant me, my friends, family and those who are reading this PATIENCE. Please forgive us for the times we lost our patience for small matters and even when worldly matters try us, specially when it comes to our parents and the elderly. Ya Rahman, Ya Ghaffâr, Ya Muhaymin, we are flawed and need your guidance. We sin so much yet you forgive us. Bless us with patience so we, too, may follow the teachings of Prophet (SAW). Ameen.

I needed to pray for patience today after all that occurred with the first ten minutes of my awakening. I literally couldn't finish washing up or anything before I had to fly out the door to stop the situation from escalating even further than it had. Reflecting back on it, I realized that some of the moments that I remained calm and was patient enough to not join in on the shouting was the most effective. The times I lost it only made me lose control of the situation and myself. I hope Allah grants me my prayer because it seems the older I'm getting the less patient I am. I would love to go back to the super calm me from a few years ago..

-M
