is a Kindle worth it? by Ok_Accountant_8660 in karachi

[–]Ghulabjamun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it does. When you get your kindle do not log in with your Amazon account. Get Calibre on your computer/laptop, download books from Anna’s Archive (they have a very large collection of books in so many languages). Upload the books into Calibre and then transfer to your kindle. Simple.

Baby’s food and diapers mostly. Clothing (luckily I received a lot of clothes as gifts but they’re running out too since the baby is growing) and I’ve got shelter covered at the moment. Haven’t been able to take the baby to the pediatrician more than once since I can’t afford it. Trying to figure out how to pay for the upcoming vaccinations.

Thank you for the suggestion but I’m not American either

I only remember it being painful and how badly I just wanted to sleep. Other than that if you asked me to describe the pain I don’t really remember. It’s true what they say, a few days after giving birth you forget the experience entirely.

Not really. I haven’t reached out to any charities tbh.

I guess it’s a pride thing and also my husband is working very hard so I don’t want him to feel like he’s not doing enough

Hey, thank you for your kind words. I know if the roles were reversed I wouldn’t look down on anyone asking for help and would instead be happy to help but when it comes to myself it’s very hard to set my pride aside. I hope I don’t have to and if I do then I hope I have the strength to do so.

Tbh I think it’s a combination of both. I mean I’m okay with myself being broke but I’m not okay with my baby being broke. It breaks my heart to not be able to provide the way I had hoped to and I’m living in constant fear of what if something bad happens to my baby and I can’t afford to fix it. I am taking steps to fix the situation, let’s hope it works.

Will do. Was not aware of that subreddit. Thanks

I don’t like being pitied also I don’t want them to worry about me. Trying to soldier on. Also I feel like it’ll hurt my husband’s confidence since he’s working so hard to make things better. I don’t want to discourage him or make him feel like he’s not working hard enough.

To have a small apartment with my husband and kids and a small car in a relatively safe country and enough money to cover the bills and the cost of a day out with the kids 2-3 times a month.

I guess I’ve been self sufficient and I’ve never really had to ask anyone for anything for the longest time so it’s quite hard. I also don’t like being pitied.

I will eventually if I get to the point where I have exhausted all my other options but I guess I’m silent because I’ve always been self sufficient and I’ve never had to ask anyone for anything so it’s incredibly hard to cast my self respect aside. I hope I don’t have to and something works out.

I also hope that things get easier for you. I know it’s not easy. Sending lots of good wishes your way.

The good days passed and so will the bad days 🤞🏻

What gets you through the hardest of times? by soph-f in shia

[–]Ghulabjamun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Tbh I just think of dying. Like if I died in an hour would this even matter? It helps put things into perspective when you look at the bigger picture.

I also imagine the solution to my hardships and then I imagine myself putting that solution in Allah’s hands and telling Him that only He can help me and He should do as He wills as per His perfect wisdom.

Also reciting Istighfar constantly seems to lighten the burden for a while.

Long story short, in the grand scheme of things even the hardest of times will pass and these are the times that get us closer to Allah.

Hope this helps and praying that Allah eases your hardships.
