Letter to Erin 20160320

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

Hey Scrapper!  How's business?  You must be working hard.  Please make sure you get sufficient rest, and eat adequately.  Please pray.  Pray that Allah brings us together in marriage and happiness soon.  I love you and I need you.

Right now, I'm watching "Murder on the Orient Express".  Have you see that movie, or read the book.  I first read the book decades ago when I had books, about 35 years ago.  I just had dinner.  Pizza again!  Allah granted me some knowledge of cooking, alhamdulillah.  Recently my mechanic told me that I drive too slowly, so my motorcycle stopped working.  So I have been driving faster, and that has changed my schedule somewhat.  My options for shopping have improved, because a trip downtown doesn't take as long as it used to.  So I managed a trip downtown to buy cheese, then came back in time to make my lunch, which was rice vermicelli noodles in soup.  I put some mackerel in it, plus some Enoki mushrooms which I bought when I got the cheese.  You know, the long noodle-like mushroom usually for sushi.

People and cats seem to think that Floofy is my favorite kitty.  She is my favorite kitty.  Not because I love her most: I love all my kitties equally.  It's because I trust her the most.  She's the most well-behaved of all my kitties, and she's the only kitty I allow in my bedroom.  She's never peed or pooped in my bedroom but then again, I've never allowed any other cat into my bedroom.  She puked once, but the door was shut and she was in heat, so I forgive her.  As far as cats go.  I remember once when I lost my balance and accidentally leaned on her (my feet are injured from many years working in a restaurant), and she stuck her claws deep into my forearm.  The scars have gone now, but I will never lean on her again inshaAllah.

Qur'an 20160320

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 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 and All-Knowing."

(The Family of Imran 3:72-73)
