And waves of shame and embarrassment would force me

back up. For evil to bend its knees, admitting its guilt, to implore myself to stay down- I didn’t know what to say to Allah.

Evidence 2
I woke up the next morning, thinking about those words immensely proud to realize that not only had I written so much at one time, but I’d written words that I never knew were in the world. Moreover, with a little effort, I also could remember what many of these words meant. I reviewed the words whose meanings I didn’t remember.
