"Your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think of you." All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory. I was naïve. I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer. It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with: that I am nobody but myself.
Don't Be Afraid To Be Yourself
In a world of comparisons
and conformity, 
make your own statement
Honour your own truth
Have the courage to be yourself
Risk speaking your own thoughts
and claiming your emotions
Share your vulnerabilties
fears, doubts and insecurities
let other experience the real you.
Have the courage to be yourself
and realize that you are
a wonderful person.

Dear Azuriy, as guided by our rasul s.a.w, only find 'hasanah' in our present life as well as in the here after. Only this 'hasanah' can make us achieve our goal i.e. 'Al-Jannah'. This is what we always say at the end of our most 'doas'. Use this guide, and as long as the something that you are looking for is 'hasanah' to you, you are ok sis.
Always have a good thought of what Allah gives us. I mean anything. Trust me, use this guide. we will have our happiness - hasanah. Don't think what other people got. Allah is very merciful, HE will give us something that we can handle. If we don't get this time perhaps some other time when we are really ready.
My experience, I noticed that I achieved something (Allah give)in a slow mode and also in a hard way. Then I realized the process / time taken has made me ready for what I asked for. Sometimes, the result does not tally to my expectation. I just accept it, because in my mind, may be the one I asked does not really suit me. However, this process should never leave our 'doa' behind.
Wallahua'klam...this is only opinion, free to read. Expect less and give more. I'm happy when you are happy.
