on ramadan reflections.1

i am grateful. to be surrounded by friends who show so much love. to meet new people that inspire and challenge me. to feel hungry and know what the rest of the world feels. to have crisp outdoor air to breathe. to have the opportunity for study and an attempt at discipline. to delight in small things like sunlight on leaves and fresh fruit on my tongue. to be able to run, no matter the pace. to have supportive family that has my best interests in mind. to be loved sincerely. to intensely love back. to learn and discover and be confused. i am grateful that as little as i feel i know right now, i still have faith in God. in someone who created me and cares for my welfare. and that is enough.
