📑 Seven things which many depressed, unhappy and insecure individuals find very difficult to do:
1] Being sincerely happy for you, celebrating your wins and achievements, and feeling at ease when you're in a good mood.
2] Offering some help when you require assistance, granting support when you can benefit from some words of encouragement, showing concern for your well-being, defending you in your absence or presence when some critics malign you, and providing helpful tips and advice.
3] Treating you with proper conduct and common courtesy.
4] Answering your salaams, greetings, invitations, calls and messages responsibly and as timely as they can.
5] Truthfully apologizing to you once they're aware that they've committed a mistake.
6] Wholeheartedly thanking you and expressing gratitude upon knowing that you've done them a favor.
7] Sharing their joys or sharable items they have in abundance.
In general, a person with sore muscles and a toothache may not interact with you as cheerfully as an individual without any ailment would, because their discomfort prevents them from behaving appropriately, unless they're strong enough to maintain good manners regardless of how they're feeling from within.
Next time Inn-sha-Allah when you encounter a seemingly disrespectful and grouchy stranger, such as an uncongenial salesperson or waiter, understand that maybe they're struggling with a lot of personal problems which cause them to misbehave, and they're not as confident as you to be capable of retaining beautiful character despite their fluctuating moods.

📖 Suhayb RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Amazing is the affair of the believer, as there is good for him in every matter. This is not the case for anyone but for the believer. If he goes through ease (or happy moments), he thanks Allah and it is good for him. If he goes through difficulty, he shows patience and it is good for him."

📖 Anas Ibn Malik RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The believer is one who is trusted by the people. The Muslim is one from whose tongue and hand the Muslims are safe (not guilty of backbiting, telling lies, and knowingly committing injustice). The emigrant (muhaajir) is one who emigrates away from evil.
By the One (Allah the Almighty) in Whose Hand is my soul, a servant will not enter Paradise if his neighbor is not secure from his harm."
