Betrayed in the Past, Puteri Sarah Is More Cautious

Malaysian actress Puteri Sarah Liyana has opened up about her personal struggles, offering a candid look into how she navigates challenging periods in her life, particularly concerning her marital issues. In a recent podcast appearance, she detailed her profound reliance on her faith, explaining how prayer has become her primary refuge and source of strength when faced with adversity.

“

Kadang-kadang kita kena bina diri sendiri untuk jadi kuat. Tetapi sebagai manusia, ada masanya kita juga mahu dimanjakan dan disayangi. Satu-satunya perkara yang saya buat ialah solat. Saya bercakap dengan Allah, ‘Ya Allah, kenapa jadi macam ini hari ini? Sarah tak mahu jadi macam ini’.

Puteri Sarah shared that her spiritual practice involves direct communication with Allah, where she voices her concerns and seeks divine guidance. This deeply personal dialogue with God provides her with the emotional and spiritual fortitude needed to persevere. She articulated that while humans naturally seek comfort and affection, her most reliable method for finding peace and clarity has been through prayer, allowing her to process her emotions and find inner calm.

Saya sudah jadi takut untuk bercerita dengan orang sebab terlalu banyak kali saya ditikam dari belakang.

Reflecting on past experiences of betrayal, the actress admitted to becoming more guarded about confiding in others. This caution stems from multiple instances where she felt deeply wounded by those she trusted. Consequently, she has cultivated a practice of self-reliance and self-compassion. After seeking solace in prayer, Puteri Sarah engages in a ritual of self-embrace, offering herself words of encouragement and acknowledging her own resilience. This act of self-love and affirmation is her way of healing and moving forward, emphasizing that ultimately, she is her own strongest support.

“

Kalau saya dapat bertemu dengan diri saya yang dahulu, saya mahu berpesan supaya menjaga maruah dan menjaga diri. Kadang-kadang selepas saya solat dan mengadu semuanya kepada Allah, perkara terakhir yang saya lakukan ialah memeluk diri sendiri sambil berkata, ‘Sarah, awak sudah buat yang terbaik’.
