وَأَحْسِنُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الْمُحْسِنِينَ
“And do good; indeed, Allah loves the doers of good”
—Qur’an 2:195
The simple joy of finding an old flower, squeezed, forgotton somewhere, in a book.
Like visiting an old memory, so delicately hidden; offering a tender moment of nostalgia.
Once a blooming flower now pressed— a metaphor of life and memories.
We are slowly turning into memories, pressed within the sides of past and the present—in the book of life. Pages like days, open and shut.
Memories like flowers—some a little forgotten; dried and pressed, but existing somewhere still, our colours fading slowly; but never disappearing.

What a wholly worthless experience it would be to never fail; to never learn.

If you know you know…
And that there is not for man except that [good] for which he strives, and that his effort is going to be seen –
Then he will be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense. And that to your Lord is the finality
—Qur’an/ Surah Najam
