I forgot to tell you all about this, when I got off the plane at Gatwick I was rushing to get my stuff so I could get to my man quicker. Coming up the escalators the older woman in front of me, who was actually sat behind me on the plane, turned to me and said 'i just love how you wear your scarf, it's so pretty and looks so elegant on you' I think I went bright red but I smiled and said thank you to here. Masha'Allah she was so nice.
After my recent problems I jut wanted to have this down to remind myself aswell as you all. Alhamdulillah

Something brought me down, but then faith was restored alhamdulillah
Here it goes.
On Sunday hubbyA and I went to look for the farmers Market near our flat. It started to rain a little and even using google maps got a little lost (I rely too much on it cause seems hubby knew the way all along) anyways, I said I would ask the next person for directions and that's what I did. A man was walking towards us with his shopping, I wasn't going to keep him for long so decided it would be ok to ask. We got about a foot apart from each other and I said 'excuse me,' he didn't heat me but then he got closer like right next to me so I said it again he kept his head up and his eyes straight ahead and carried on walking. Yes folks, he ignored me! And it really upset me :( I kept going over the scene in my head, "you think he didn't hear me?" I asked hubbyA. "Do you think he ddint hear you?" was his rely, which was true. I just wanted to give him an excuse for not answering me. I don't like to think that people can do this, alas my faith in my community was shaken :(
Until last night alhamdulillah. A man stopped and asked me for directions to the shopping centre near mine. There were other people he could have asked, but he asked me and couldn't stop thanking me for my help.
My faith isn't fully restored, it's still slightly cracked but it's not wide open, angry and as susceptible anymore. And, of course, I have hubbyA too. Alhamdulillah.
Peace and salams
