Quote by Zainab Rafi

“Rigidity dims the light within us. Openness, flexibility, and the courage to listen, giving others space to breathe, making them feel safe to speak, and sincerely understanding their perspective, are what enlighten a person. To me, this is the purest form of kindness.”

“Perhaps there really is a good that exists; for a century of darkness to be eschewed by a single flame; for a decade of evil done to the heart to be undone by simple and unplanned acts of kindness! There must be a goodness, after all! But we don't find it when we're looking for it; not in church, not in a cathedral, not even in our own homes! We find it when we've fallen down so hard, are downtrodden so low; and there is one true friend who picks us up; or one random person who takes us in! And we realize goodness was never in the places we thought it was! It was all along in the most humble of places: bound up in the heart of a true friend.”
