In the name of God, compassionate & merciful بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ | Peace be with you السلام عليكم
I've gotten that a lot lately, and I gotta say I don't think I look that bad, and what does death look like actually, I can't say I have seen a dead body to be
quite honest but I'm pretty sure I don't want to look like one.
I have a Vitamin D deficiency...and Vitamin A. However the Vitamin D is what makes me just a bit paler then the rest of my family. Not a huge deal I just try and take in as much light as I can, pop a few pills, eat lots of things rich in Vit A & D and call it a day.
Well thanks to Ramadan being here, I don't take my vitamins throughout the daytime, only in the morning and evening, and am probably not not getting as much Vitamin D during the day, which apparently makes me look even more paler and sickly. Yay! Haven't you heard? Pale and sickly are in, just look at the women in Hollywood all bony and what not. It's the same isn't it? I'm beautiful aren't I ? Aren't I !?? Anyways..
"What's wrong Zahra?"
Nothing...
"Are you home sick..?"
Not until you just mentioned it...
"You look like death, would you like to see a doctor?"
Why? Am I sick?
So yes alhumduillah my Ramadan has been good so far, wallahi I love Ramadan; besides the horrible headaches, and lack of energy, the being cold and shaky and overly emotional (my 5 year old nephew calls me stupid and I run crying to my husband to tale tale).
Got to love the fasting!
Is anyone else getting weird cravings for random things? I have been craving Green Tea Ice Cream for like 4 days now, as well as a few various Afghan dishes, and custard....

So yeah apparently I look dead. If your ever in the New Zealand area and think you see a zombie, don't scream, just say salaam, it's probably me...
Anyways take care, happy fasting!
Walikum asalaam wa rahmatilla
