Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.

It is other and we're back and you're listening to the Digital Sisterhood podcast.

So it's been a while and I'm not going to lie, I missed you guys.

It's been a week and I'm already feeling like separation anxiety.

But good thing we're back and we're here to spring off new stories and as some of you

know this month we're sharing stories about love, love stories.

And if you hate that too bad because we're still telling those stories.

And I've always, other is a serial and I should probably be in a support group of a hopeless

romantic.

Let me tell you about what I think about love stories.

I feel like we do not hear enough about them.

I feel like we hear too much about the demise, the fall of love stories, the breakups,

the divorce, the heartache.

And I don't hear enough about the success and the growth and the love and the positivity.

The reason a lot of describes marriage to be, you know, Rahman and Mercy.

I don't hear enough about it.

And it's really difficult because it's like if you can't, if you're not hearing enough

love stories it's hard to imagine yourself in one.

And if you can't imagine yourself in a healthy relationship or a healthy marriage then kind

of makes you wonder like what are the odds, you know, and it's just, and I know a lot of

people feel that way.

I know a lot of people feel that way.
