**Shadowplay TV now returns to its regular programming**
I love the fasting month, don't you? It's so mysterious. I used to dread it like everyone else, because I didn't get to stuff my face whenever I felt like it, but now I love it. And I just had the most delicious baked tuna. I'm stuffed.
By the way, sincerity is quality, not quantity. Or better yet, you do things to please God, not to please humans.
Shadowplay TV is back on the randomizer and larger database. There are still some unanswered questions about the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, like what lurks in the complicated mind of the mysterious Butt Blurrer, but that will have to remain unanswered for now.
Anyway, have a fantastic Ramadan my beloved, and may Allah bless our love.

Qur'an 20120720
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
8. When some trouble touches man, he cries unto his Lord, turning to God in repentance. But when God bestows a favor upon him as from Godself, does forget what he cried and prayed for before, and he does set up rivals unto Allah, thus misleading others from the Path. Say, "Enjoy your blasphemy for a little while, verily you are of the companions of the fire!"
9. Is one who worships devoutly during the hours of the night prostrating himself or standing, who takes heed of the Hereafter, and who places his hope in the Mercy of his Lord... Say, "Are those equal, those who know and those who do not know? It is those who are endued with understanding that receive admonition."
10. Say, "O you servants who believe! Fear your Lord. Good is for those who do good in this world. Spacious is Allah's earth! Those who patiently persevere will truly receive a reward without measure!"
11. Say, "I am commanded to serve Allah with sincere devotion."
12. And I am commanded to be the first of those who bow to Allah in Islam.
13. Say, "I would, if I disobeyed my Lord, indeed have fear of the Penalty of a Mighty Day."
14. Say, "It is Allah I serve, with my sincere devotion."
15. Serve you what you will besides God. Say, "Truly those in loss are those who lose their souls and their people on the Day of Judgement. Ah! That is indeed the evident loss!"
Crowds 39:8-15

Yes, of course I love you. How could I not? You're so beautiful, inside and out. But you didn't do me any favors by becoming a Muslim. Rather, Allah conferred a favor upon you by guiding you to the faith, if you are true and sincere. The hypocrites don't think so, but sincerity is very transparent. In fact, you would be destroying us both if your faith is not sincere.

And how are you coping, my beloved? Too much attention? Please try to slow down and enjoy whatever it is you are doing, and please be patient with others who only long to see you. Sure, when a mosquito demands attention, you would get the bug spray. But most people lack understanding and patience. So you just compensate with your own patience, and not be in any sort of hurry to please others.

**sniffle** Yes, I still have the sniffles. I thought I beat it last week, but it came back for round 2. It must be this freaky weather here lately. I managed to burn the trash today which had been accumulating for the past week, with much effort, but much of it is still wet. And it's raining slightly right now. I'm certainly not in the mood to cook. Thank God I have some curry made by one of my favorite cooks. I bought some fresh buns at the night market, and had bread and fish curry for dinner. A very intelligent and calculated curry, perfect in flavor and texture. I got slight heartburn, but I do have the sniffles after all. **sniffle** I'm curious as to how the chef chose the fish. It looks like cod, but I'm not sure. I'm still mastering my fishes. I haven't had sushi in a while, mostly because I can't find any wasabi in Perlis. I don't have my own curry recipe, even though I eat it often. That's because I'm too lazy to learn the local recipes. What I do is buy curry then jazz it up if I'm not satisfied with it. **sniffle**

Hi Julia, my beloved beautiful young bride! How are you feeling? I love you with all my heart! The fasting month starts on Saturday the 21st of July. ARE YOU READY TO ROCK??!!! Well, I'm getting ready to fast. I need to maintain my daily schedule as best as possible, plus there is an additional group prayer every night throughout Ramadan which I attend, insyaAllah. Which means I don't have to do the hour's worship I do about 4am every morning throughout the rest of the year: I eat instead. I plan to eat light or quickly for breaking fast, then pigging out in the wee hours of the morning. Shadowplay TV will be going back to regular programming in less than a week, too. But don't worry: I'll be seeing the fashion show whenever Allah takes over the randomizer and picks that show. I'll get to see my sweetie! Hi Sweetie! Say, do those wings actually work? I mean, if I wore those wings and then jumped into the Grand Canyon, would I die? No, I don't wanna die like that!
But all joking aside, if you call yourself a believer, then Allah will test your faith. That is as certain as death. Do you believe? Then Allah will test you. Perfection is a reward in the next life. What we can pray for is that Allah make our journey together an easy one. Ya Allah, please grant Julia and I love, beauty, good health, safety and happiness together in this life as well as the hereafter. Please don't divorce us. Please grant us long, happy, healthy lives together with beautiful, happy, healthy and pious children. Please protect us. Please forgive our sins, make us great Muslims, make us faithful to each other and to You, grant us the highest place in heaven, and make our journey together easy.
