"Never lie to someone who trusts you and never trust someone who lies to you..."

How true this saying is!

I'm sure we can all think of a time when we have done both unfortunately. The people who trust us and treat us well deserve the best from us but they don't always get it. On the other hand, the people who treat us badly quite often we chase them for attention or approval.

Try to appreciate the good people around you and show them you care :)

A bit of background....

So just to bring you up to speed to where I am in my life... I converted to Islam almost 5 years ago (that's a story for another time) after starting university and meeting some muslims. I began university later than most people, I guess because my family couldn't afford to send me to uni when I left school. But after working for a while in a decent job I realised that the only way to go 'up the ladder' was to have a degree. I had always wanted to go to uni so after my 6yr relationship broke up I thought the change would be just what I needed. Finally I was going somewhere....little did I know I was going much further than I ever imagined!
Now, I have my degree. I feel so blessed to have found Islam. I am working in a great job and I have found a good man who I want to marry. The only trouble is he is in Saudi Arabia! (Don't worry he is not Saudi - before anyone warns me that they can't marry foreigners).
He is roughly 3,000 miles away from me! This blog is to track the journey I will have to make to be with him and inshallah start a new life and family.
Thank you for reading.
