100 happy days - Day 89

Even in Ramadan, I love walking in the city.  Especially when it's to or from iftaar.    This is the ideal evening.  

And happiness is..... a McDonalds ice cream cone on the way home.  Yum!!!  Big thank you to the lady who made our cones extra giant.  ❤

100 happy days - Day 88

It's been a while since I've posted!  I've been hustling through Ramadan, and it's been tough.  

One of the toughest things in Ramadan is all the posts on Facebook that I see about the oppression of the Palestinian people during this holy month.  There is no respect, it seems.  What makes me sad about this is that major atrocities are being carried out everyday, and other than my friends' FB posts, it's not being publicized at all.  I can't understand how people will so willingly hurt another human being in any fashion.  I feel helpless because i don't know what i can do.  I don't think this is something can be solved with one or two peace talks.  I think it is a sickness in the hearts of the oppressors and that is not something easily medicated......

So, today I am thankful for the following simple things I take for granted every other day in my life:

Safety

Security

Peace

Freedom

Water

Food at the end of my fasts

My family

My homes

My job

God - and justice - is on the side of the oppressed.  

100 happy days Day 87

I'm about to explode!  But this was a good iftaar.  Even got to hear possible-future-mayor John Tory speak.  Cool!

Also, today is Day 10 of Ramadan!  Crazy.  But amazing.  Blessed.  

100 happy days - Day 86

Apart from a couple of great conversations today :), this made me laugh:

"wilsonmattison" is hilarious.  Autocorrect  is MIA.  As is any indication of punctuation.  Ha.  

100 happy days - Day 85

Shopping with my sister is always fun times.  ❤  Even if now she calls me the cannoli expert.  Ha!  :)

Had iftaar at UJ's tonight.  Got to spend time with Imtiaz and the kids.  This always makes me happy!  The icing on the cake was the delicious BBQ dinner we had.  Yum! :). I ate so fast I forgot to take a picture.  But trust me, it was lovely. :) Part of Ramadan for me is the social aspect, so I'm very thankful for this particular iftaar. :)

xo!

Just over 5 hours into the day, and I already know what my post is gonna be:

YUP!!!

100 happy days - Day 83

I vowed not to have this stuff until the weekends during Ramadan because it messes up my sleep cycle.  So now here we are, weekend space, and I gots my cup o' chai!!!  

Life is great! :)

And shout-out to my precious penny today - you are a supastaaaaar! ;) ❤

Haven't been home to my condo in a couple of days, so today I'm just thankful for my little shoebox in the sky. :) ❤
