Talk about what brings you happiness these days.
It is the spontaneous little moments of beauty or relaxation or connection that make me happy these days. Taking my daughter to the lake and watching her play in the sand, finding a beautiful snail, seeing my 1 year old's smile when I give her macaroni. It is also the brief little vacations from my life that give me joy. Watching TV after the kids are all in bed. Going on a drive. Reading an article. Scrolling through social media and getting a peak into other people's lives. I am like a parched desert, soaking up every drop of happiness that I can find and trying to make it last.

Some people have reported that their dreams have gotten more vivid, or that they’ve had an unusually strong sense of God, or felt the presence or heard the voice of departed loved ones—has anything like that happened to you? If it has, tell us about it.
The pandemic led to a greater sense of appreciation for people and the world around me. To me all of it Allah's creation. Greater appreciation has led to paying closer attention to details and paying closer attention to the details, leads to greater understanding. I believe that understanding and allowing us to love and appreciate his creation is how Allah speaks to us.
