Letter to Julia 20130731

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

Well, I wouldn't want to do such a gig everyday.  It wouldn't be sustainable, there wouldn't be adequate creative writing, and everyone including me would get bored very quickly.  Once or twice a week is more than enough.  I don't want to burn out, even though it's a great gig.  On the off days, I'll just stay home and voice train as usual.  If people want to hear me, then they can hang around the kampung.  I want to enjoy a happy and secure married life with my Julia.  Snuggle on the futon and make the love.  Trim the grass.  Do some cooking.  Etc.

Qur'an 20130731

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

72.  A section of the people of the Book say, "Believe in the morning what is revealed to the believers, but reject it at the end of the day, perchance they may turn back."

73.  "And believe no one unless he follows your religion."  Say, "True guidance is the Guidance of Allah, lest a revelation be sent to someone like unto that which was sent unto you!  Or that those should engage you in argument before your Lord?"  Say, "All bounties are in the Hand of Allah: God grants them to whom God pleases, and Allah is the All-Caring, the Omniscient."

74.  For God's Mercy, God specially chooses whom God pleases.  For Allah is the Lord of bounties unbounded.

The Family of Imran 3:72-74

True guidance is the Guidance of Allah, lest a revelation be sent to someone like unto that which was sent unto you!  Or that those should engage you in argument before your Lord?

All bounties are in the Hand of Allah: God grants them to whom God pleases, and Allah is the All-Caring, the Omniscient.
