He screamed free Palestine until his body physically couldn’t produce words anymore.

As a teacher, staying home to take care of yourself is more work than going to school and toughing it out. That's important for leaders to remember. So instead of when do you think you'll be back, perhaps we should ask, how can I help? Oh, and mental health is health.

Student: Can you explain this? I don't get it Me: Sure. What don't you get about it? Student: Well, I wasn't really paying attention when you were teaching, so I don't know what any of this is about Me: Ah

i miss the old me like damn i was so happy before.

you know you’re a healer when babies & animals are naturally drawn to you & people often open up to you quickly. god gave you the gift of having a loud, warm, & welcoming aura. you are a walking safe haven for those who deeply seek comfort & understanding & that’s really special

It’s really disgusting out here. The friendships. The relationships. The ppl. The actions. The mindsets. The morals.

+ you owe those you disrespect, respect. Accountability is a personal act of integrity and moral principles. We will forever live in a broken society, until we learn to account for our actions that impact other peoples lives negatively (2/2)

This generation doesn’t know how to build healthy relationships.. We end up saying stuff like “I don’t owe anyone anything.” You do owe people something. You owe those you offended an apology. You owe those who gave you support, gratitude (1/2)

Let me be clear. I don’t need damn reading and math coaches to tell me how to teach. I sure as hell don’t need a textbook consultant telling me how to teach. This is my 24th year. I KNOW how to teach. This trend of coaches and consultants is another nail in the coffin.

i need a person who can hear my voice even if i’m silent.

god protect me from what I can’t see.

My favorite time of year, when students try to turn in every missing assignment and retake every quiz they failed. It’s not like I haven’t been reminding them all quarter long. 🫠

Sorry about your student loan debt, we really only fund genocides.

The saddest part is that at this stage Palestinians aren’t even fighting for freedom or their land. They’re just trying not to die. To get something to eat maybe? If you have an ounce of humanity, you’ll stand with Palestine ❤️‍🩹

I ended my relationship with my best friend of 6 years over Palestine (back in 2020), anyone can get it ✂️

I feel like a lot of Muslims underestimate the power of Dua. Allah can do anything. He parted the Red Sea, cooled fire, and split the moon in half. What makes you think that He cannot deal with your relatively small problems? Make du’aa, wallah He’s there.
