Grateful for Answered Duas

Assalamu alaikum everyone, I just felt like sharing some positivity by talking about a few duas that have been answered for me recently. I've been really focusing on making lots of dua, and alhamdulillah, it feels like they've been coming true one after another, like Allah is truly listening. One thing I prayed for was safety-for myself, my family, and all the sisters out there-because I was so tired of dealing with creepy looks and harassment when I'm outside. I asked Allah to protect us and to help people lower their gazes and avoid improper thoughts. Since the next day, SubhanAllah, I haven't gotten a single creepy stare, not even regular ones, even though I wasn't dressed in what's usually considered super modest here. It's been like that ever since, and I literally walked around smiling, feeling so thankful. Allah is the best! Then another time, I was really upset one night for no clear reason. During my Isha prayer, I asked Allah to comfort me and ease my heart, not by making me randomly happy but by soothing me when I felt down. The next morning, I went about my day and quietly asked for a sign to strengthen my iman. Later, I overheard my parents talking about me in a way that made me sad, so I went and shut myself in my study room. My desk was a total mess, with my pen holder tipped over and little notes I'd written last year scattered everywhere. I remembered these were all the kind things people had said about me. I opened each one and started crying even more. Things like 'I'm so proud of you,' 'You'll do great anyway,' 'You're amazing,' and 'Your smile is beautiful.' I was a crying mess, but then I held my chest, feeling so incredibly grateful. I realized I'd asked Allah to console me, and here He was, doing exactly that through these old notes. Right away, I prayed two rakats of nafl to thank Allah for His mercy. Alhamdulillah for everything.
