Reflections from the life of an american convert to Islam
Whoulda thunk all the other things you can do when you dont have to work 7 days a week.
Since I've quit my job, i've cleaned my house (somewhat, didnt clean some areas on purpose to leave me something to do on other days), I've been working out regularly, AND i'm cooking again. Funny thing is, When i was working I never realized how much food I didnt have...i mean REAL food...stuff you make a meal with. I opened the fridge today and was like "Dang its empty in there" when I know normally if this was a work day i would have said "Ehh we got pizza and chicken nuggets..that'll do for now." So i went grocery shopping got some healthier food, turkey burgers, fruit, baked lays, AND for once i got to the CMR before it closed. And since i'm not working. I'm going to start fasting ( insha'allah) on thursdays in preparation for Ramadhan which start in about 3 weeks or so.
Yes, Have to admit. Life is Good...wait..not good...better...life is better. Life wont be good until i get out of grafenwohr germany.
