Letter to Erin 20141220

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

Hey there, beautiful heart.  How are you today, you wonderful, gorgeous girl?  How I long to be with you, my dearest Erin, and give you all my love.  Please don't you ever feel sad, because I want you to feel loved and loved and loved.  For I am the one who loves you, from here to the afterlife.  You are my heart, my wife.  I love you, and I need you.

I pray you are taking good, loving care of yourself.  I would love to be with you and help put your hair up in a knot, and make you a nice cashew shoot salad, but since I can't right now then I want you to eat properly, stay fit, and get lots of rest.  I hope you realize that you don't have to chase after the crowd anymore.  I am your public relations machine now, and you are my girl.  All you have to do is be beautiful.  And you are beautiful.  You are the most beautiful girl in the world.  I love you, Erin.  Sweet, beautiful Erin.

The song goes, "The waiting is the hardest part."  I've been waiting my whole life- I've never been married, even though I've always wanted to be married.  And I will never be successful in music business in the conventional way.  You know what I mean: aerobics in sync with dancers behind me while singing, and getting tattoos etc.  I have to make my own way, and that way is inspired by God.  While of course I can't let what people say corrupt my vision, the worst thing you can do is let the crowd tell you what to do.  Please remember that the crowd is not your friend.  A school of fish is a bait ball.

You must be patient and wait.  Ignore the crowd, and wait.  Yes, I know you have a tender heart which I so adore, but this time you must protect your emotions from the crowd.  My world is your world now, because you are MY girl.  So be in my world, and be oblivious to what people say.  You're taller than most of them anyway, so look over their heads, and think about your house.  How would you like your house to be?  Please have faith in God, maintain your prayers, and know that I love you, and I need you.

The smell of home made pizza is driving my kittens berserk.  You want some pizza?

Qur'an 20141218

28.  They say, "When will this decision be, if you are telling the truth?"

29.  Say, "On the Day of Decision, no profit will it be to unbelievers if they believe, nor will they be granted a respite."

30.  So turn away from them, and wait: they too are waiting.

The Prostration 32:28-30

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

Suddenly Erin rules over all models.  USA!  USA!  USA!

Next, a house for Erin.

At this time, I'm living in a little house right next door to my parents' house.  On the other side of my little house stands my grandfather's old house.  Nobody lives in there anymore except for beasts and jinns (I'm serious), it's made of wood and brick with zinc roofing, and it's totally run down and termite infested.  But it stands on a sizable piece of property.  It is my plan to own that land and the land that my little house stands on, and build a nice, large, and modern house for my wife.  InshaAllah.

That's you, Erin.  InshaAllah.  I love you and I need you.

And the little house I currently live in will be converted into my office/studio.  InshaAllah.  You won't ever have to live in this little house if you don't want to.  You will move into your house when it's ready.  InshaAllah.  I want you to be patient and wait, make lots of money for yourself, and maintain your chastity and your daily prayers.

Qur'an 20141216

10.  And they say, "What!  When we lie hidden and lost in the earth, shall we indeed be in a creation renewed?"  No, they deny the meeting with their Lord.

11.  Say, "The angel of death put in charge of you will take your souls, then shall you be brought back to your Lord."

The Prostration 32:10-11

Letter to Julia 20141215

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

Floofy has been very jealous of her own kittens lately.  Last night she came into the house, and began snarling at them, and at me because I was in the same room.  So I retreated to my bedroom, and she quickly slipped in with me.  Suddenly she was a different cat, wanting to be held and loved.  And she was crying: a tear was trickling down her right eye.  So I held her tightly for half an hour.  Poor Floofy.

Julia, I didn't know you were already married.  I found out yesterday.  My network is usually very efficient, that I would have been aware of this development as soon as it happened, but not this time.  I told you a while ago, I'm really not that smart.  Of course I was heartbroken.  And of course I cannot be married to a woman who is already married.  I would like to apologize for my being poor, for if I had had the money, I would have financed our marriage 5 years ago.  And I still don't have the money today.  So goodbye Julia, and best wishes.

Actually I feel kind of silly.  I should have caught on about a year ago, but Allah compensated for me for which I am grateful, that I still have my commitment to Erin.  I do love you, Erin.  Not just because I have a terrible weakness for pretty blondes, but also you seem to me to have a pure heart.  I need you.  And I will marry you inshaAllah.  Please be fully aware that I have a mission to please Allah with music, by my standing ground here and creating a tourist attraction, and you will be my wife.  With all due respect to you and your family, I cannot have you marry into my poverty, so when Allah grants me wealth enough to marry, that will be when we marry.  This is a spiritual situation, and marriage is a very serious business.  You must have faith and patience that that will happen inshaAllah, and be chaste and Islam.  Meanwhile, I pray that my commitment of marriage to you will enhance your business, and make you lots of money.  And I will build a house for you inshaAllah.  This is the situation given to me by inspiration from Allah for which I am grateful, where otherwise I would be just another dead rock star still generating revenue for the people who killed him.  Now it is time to close this folder of letters, and open a new one titled "Letter to Erin".  Erin, thank you for your love.

I took this photo about 5 years ago.  It's titled "The Kingfisher and the Stork".

Qur'an 20100317

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

3.  The unbelievers say, "Never to us will come the Hour."  Say, "No!  But most surely by my Lord, it will come upon you, by God who knows the unseen, from Whom is not hidden the least little atom in the heavens or on earth, nor is there anything less than that, or greater, but is in a Record Perspicuous."

4.  That God may reward those who believe and work deeds of righteousness: for such is Forgiveness, and a Sustenance most Generous.

5.  But those who strive against Our Signs, to frustrate them- for such will be a Penalty- a Punishment most humiliating.

6.  And those to whom Knowledge has come see that this sent down to you from your Lord- that is the Truth, and that it guides to the Path of the Exalted, Worthy of all praise.

Sheba 34:3-6

No!  But most surely by my Lord, it will come upon you, by God who knows the unseen, from Whom is not hidden the least little atom in the heavens or on earth: nor is there anything less than that, or greater, but is in a Record Perspicuous.
