“The only way to rise above is to rise above. The only way to respond to wrong is with right. The only way to deal with injustice is to be just.”
Nafisa Haji“These tears are proof that there is love in the world. Tears are only bitter when we cry selfishly for ourselves. When we deny and forget the sweet love that tears are made of. When we let sorrow turn to anger. When people cry for each other, it is a good thing. Always remember that you are a human being, connected to all other human beings. When you cry for others you are opening your heart to God, who must see what we do and weep for us, too, for the suffering we cause to one another and to ourselves.”
Nafisa Haji, The Sweetness of Tears“The only way to rise above is to rise above. The only way to respond to wrong is with right. The only way to deal with injustice is to be just.”
Nafisa Haji, The Sweetness of Tears“that there are many things that we cant understand. the past. the bad things that happened... and we become afraid. of what might happen in the future. its okay to be afraid. but we have to keep hoping and believeing... to keep hoping and trying our best to be good and do good. even when we're afraid”
