Eid Wishes

Friday - Walid Karsli
Eid Mubarak

A happy and peaceful Eid to all of you who are celebrating.

I just realized as I looked back at previous Ramadan posts, as I move forward in time, they are getting shorter and shorter. I guess since I started blogging my life has been getting busier and busier. So I stopped a moment before posting to make this one a little more…intimate. Unfortunately Eid, for me, will go by this year for the most part uncelebrated (in the traditional sense) but not forgotten. I am still away from home and its just not the same. My thoughts are with all of you, and I sincerely hope that your celebrations with family and friends are warm, joyful, and very memorable. For those of you who are, like me, away from home…you are not alone. As we are spread out around the globe…we can be sure that our hearts are together throughout the holidays. A blessed Eid to you all.

A ceasefire has been put into effect on both sides of the conflict in Gaza. Not that this is the ideal situation, but at least its a reprieve. I am hesitant in my optimism. But I have to admit, dear readers, I miss writing the Story of Ghassan and Alexandra for you. Please help me decide whether now is a good time to start posting it again…

     

Thank you.

PeaceDear Readers,

I won’t be updating my story until the death and destruction stops in Gaza. I would feel callous writing a romance when such horrible events are happening near by.

I hope you will stay with me until I return. Inshallah peace will happen soon.

Sincerely,

Mariyah
