thanks for the well wishes everyone. This place wouldnt be the same without you all. i may stand out like a sore thumb in here sometimes, but i feel at home. thanks again!
Today is the first day of Ramadan, so i look forward to seeing positive changes in myself and others around me in the coming month.
levite, wow. i'm impressed. many muslims dont even know what those concepts are. A time of reflection, devotion, rememberence, self criticism and contention with what we have. do they teach you these in rabbanical school?
will - thanks for the tips. however, training at suhoor time is really tough, since suhoor is 4am, which doesnt leave much time for sleep! my training regime is going to change definately. i did a long run yesterday, because i dont think i would be able to do one without wearing myself out in Ramadan. My training will be after Iftar but wont be as intense.
I look forward to the festivities that ramadan brings, the atmosphere it creates and the happiness it generates around the globe. I will try and capture what Ramadan is in some pictures here and share them with TFP.
This year i plan on joining my family back home in Sydney for Eid al Fitr (the festival marking the end of Ramadan). it would be interesting to see the contrast between Ramadan here in the UAE and Ramadan in Sydney..
