Greetings!
I am currently out of the Pacific North West and am in the Gulf region .....
I have been jet lagged and waking up at around 3 in the morning and my usual routine has been to head downstairs to my nearby mosque for morning prayers.
PS I think I like this sleep schedule better, why do people spend the best part of the day sleeping? I would keep a nine to 4 am schedule forever.
2 days ago there was a cat lounging in front of the mosque door and I opened the door and stepped around it. I was secretly pleased that she did not scare.
Then another lady that came for morning prayers shushed her away and I was displeased.
PPS. in North America we get into cars to go to prayers and here they have it so easy just head downstairs and viola....many do not realize this blessing..
Brussels is a city for dogs the Emirates have cities for cats.
After prayers, I went for a walk around near the waterfront area which is also near a central location of the town.I enjoyed a few activities such as window shopping, the garden views, and the strange smells!
I peered into windows of beautiful textile displays and perfumes among other things.
There were names such as Napoli shoes and Verona textiles
. I imagine a Shakespearean play.....I like his plays.
There is a nearby mall that is called a souk, and they have these yummy looking cakes so far ...........I have been battling my desire for these cakes.
I will win.
On a serious note, world events seem to be appalling and makes me want to sink in prayers.
May we all stay safe. These are troubling times.
As I write this I am listening to Paul Craig Roberts.
I am going to be traveling soon around the region so it will be difficult to be active online.
I have been lurking as well as soaking, sorting
through information for now. I am in reflection mode but it is hard to assess if the info is truthful, unfortunately.
Thank you for missing me, and thanks for the laughs and roses.
