Letter to Julia 20140726

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

Hello there Julia, my beautiful and dignified queen.  How are you feeling today?  And how about you Erin, my gorgeous, beloved sweetheart?  How are those dreams coming along?  I love you both with all my heart.  I love you, I love you, and I need you, I need you.  It's Friday night, and it's raining.  This year's Ramadan started out wet, and it looks like it's going to end wet.  The Eid should be on Monday approximately.  They're supposed to spot the new moon before officially ending the fasting month.  I don't think the Internet cafe is open during the Eid, and even if it were, I will be busy, so it looks like I won't be able to blog again until at least Wednesday, inshaAllah.  Please forgive me.  I personally prefer Ramadan over the Eid, but whatever the case, please try to celebrate.  And think of me if you can, of our marriage, and that I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

Meanwhile, study the Qur'an.  But take it slowly, and observe how your environment reflects in your reading.  Don't be like the woman who consults a fortune teller, desiring as much information as possible.  The human mind can only swallow a little at a time of the Work of God, and we ignore so much.  Be patient, pray, and do good deeds.
