Letter to Erin 20150619

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

Hello there, my beautiful Erin!  Are you feeling lonely at the top?  Well, I am feeling lonely without you.  I love you with all my heart, and I wish to be with you always.  I want to marry you, my beautiful Erin.  I will marry you, inshaAllah.  I love you, and I need you.

These first few days of the fasting month is usually the most difficult for me, so today I took it super easy.  I just lounged around in bed, watched TV, worked on your house plans a little, then took a nap before the mid day prayer and voice training.  Singing for 2 hours straight while fasting is SO hard.  Ugh.  For some reason, my legs were the most tired.  What is this weight when I sing?  Do ghosts have weight?  Once I get past the Asr prayer, it's usually easy sailing.  And I was able to a little yard work.  It's that singing... I don't eat big for breaking fast.  Just some chili and sliced bread.  When I get up to eat next morning inshaAllah, it's going to be rice and tofu.  Almost vegetarian: I'll break an egg on top of the tofu block.  Care to join me?
