Wherever you go, there you are

 "Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after you." - Kurt Cobain

I recall discussing the case of Sharon Tate before, years ago perhaps, in this blog.  I didn't do too much research into the case.  What interested me is that Sharon Tate was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and that's as far as I understand.  It is erroneous to simply assume that you're confronting a jealous stalker.  You are in this situation because God put you there, as a test of faith.  The scope is much larger than just one egotistical nobody like Charles Manson.  Your situation is nothing like that at all.  Ponder upon the trinity of Islam/Christianity/Judaism, and you will get a grasp on the scale of this affair.  So it doesn't matter where you are, be it Los Angeles, Vancouver or the sticks of Malaysia: wherever you go, there you are.

With all these people watching, don't get too trusting with the Public Eye.  There may be millions of people witnessing, but nearly all of them just want to watch and be entertained.  They won't even call the cops or ambulance for you.  Not everybody is like that, though.  Perhaps a couple of people in a million would warm your butt for you by embracing it with their arms and faces, just for the sake of keeping your butt warm.  There are still good people on this world, that's why Judgment Day isn't here already.  It's close, though.  

You are either: 1)  The wife of a Rock Star, or 2)  The wife of a Rock Star?

Either way, you can't escape God.  So give your emotions a break, and don't panic.  Pray.  Relax, and enjoy your position.  Read a book or something.

Cold and wet

 Hi Natty!  How are you today, my love?  It must be getting colder up there in Vancouver, or even snowy right now.  You get to go skiing!  I've never skied in my life, even when I had the chance.  It's cold and wet here, though.  It's been continually cold and wet for the past couple of days.  I like this weather.  I don't sweat, and I get a break from yard work.  I did go grocery shopping with my mother this morning.  I bought  half a fish head, but it was a big one.  So I spent the rainy evening cooking up and eating the fish head with a pot of steamed rice, after I made a batch of dough.  Would you like some?

Google sent me this video while I was waiting for dinner.  I think this version and the original by Alice DJ are about the same, but I like the story here better.

Great snapshots with Mary Unknown7 today too!  In green!

Freckles?

 EEK!  Natty, you're naked again!  That's the first thing I noticed.  Then I saw the freckles.  At first, I thought I had to clean my monitor screen.  Then I looked closer, and saw those things were on your face.  Those don't look real.  Those can't be real freckles.  I guess we all know who it refers to, and I'm left wondering whose idea that was.  I'm sure you're having lots of fun, but doesn't the sociologist in you feel at least a little bit of guilt?  Whatever it is my darling, you are beautiful and I love you with all of my heart.

Fun is fun, but fun is stressful!  I'll bet your tummy is all nervous from too much fun.  Please learn how to relax, and eat simple foods OK?

Cute

 Natty, you look so sleek and streamlined.  You make me want to go OW!  That cigarette thing is just so cute.  You're so gorgeous, Natty.  You're so beautiful.  I love you with all of my heart.

I'm sorry I'm running late today.  I cut the grass this evening, then I got caught up in cooking and eating dinner.  I haven't even done the dishes yet, they're piled up in my tiny sink.  Since I switched the cat food from chicken to fish and rice, I have a lot of chicken breast in my freezer.  So I made spicy teriyaki chicken with rice.  I have a lot of thick and sweet soy sauce, so I filled up a bowl with it and added a tablespoon of sugar.  I cubed the chicken breast and a block of tofu, and let it swim in that for a bit.  I sautéed some chopped garlic until brown, then I gradually added the teriyaki sauce in that spoon by spoon, until all that was left in the bowl was chicken and tofu.  I fried the sauce until it clumped up, then added the chicken and tofu to cook until done.  I had some raw onion and red hot chilli peppers cut up, so I put that in and mixed it up.  You probably wouldn't like it that strong, but you can leave that out if you want.  Then I poured the mix over a big bowl of steamed white rice.  I'm so stuffed!  Want some?

I've been trying to get Mary Unknown7 to smile, and here it is.  It looks forced though.  She said that love songs make her sad, so she's serious all the time.  That and all the voices of the dead, I guess.

 

One cable at a time

 Hi Natty!  How are you today?  I hope you are taking things easy and trying to relax.  Yeah we have to keep ourselves occupied, but it can be done in a relaxing way.  My whole morning was used up because I had to take my mother to the clinic for a checkup.  Although my whole morning was busy, I spent it sleeping in the car while waiting.  Nothing special on the menu today, everything was takeout.  I had to cut the grass in the evening.  I'm always cutting the grass because the grass is strong and there's a huge area, so it doesn't make a difference if I hurry or not.  There's always grass to cut.  So I take it one cable at a time.  For some reason, it takes me effort (and a tool) to change the cable on the weed whacker, so I try to make each individual cable last as long as possible.  This is also consonant with how much time, energy and motivation I have at any particular time to put in the labor of cutting the grass.  Ugh... I hate labor.  Well I have other stuff to do, you know.  I'm supposed to be a musician.  Usually one cable lasts me my entire front lawn, but today the cable snapped half way through.  That's enough grass cutting for today!  I then went to the night market and bought my dinner.

Qur'an 20201005

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

30.  Or do they say, "A poet!  We await for him some calamity by time!"

31.  Say, "Await you!  I too will wait along with you!"

The Mountain 52:30-31

Fear is in the eyes

 One needs to pull that mask up higher to hide the fear, otherwise everyone can plainly see it.  It is OK to be afraid, if you put your fear in Allah.  Allah is the Oft-Forgiving, the Grantor of life and death.  If you sincerely focus your fear on God then you will have no fear of anyone nor anything else, inshaAllah.  Pray, and beg Allah for forgiveness and mercy.  Pray and repent sincerely, for the prayer of those who have no faith is futile.

Hi Natty!  Aw, don't you worry about a thing my dearest.  Everything is going to work out just great for us InshaAllah.  You are MY girl, and I love you with all of my heart.  I will marry you, inshaAllah.  Don't fret so much about the world, because God's plan is in motion and there is nothing we can do about it but pray.  So please pray for peace of heart and mind.  Meditate, and be as one with the world as it spins around.
