3rd day of e holy month of ramadhan

it's the 3rd day of the month of ramadhan.

i always enjoyed the month. always feel more serene and i always feel more at peace with myself. even more so now that a dear friend-work (not colleague- she's valued dearly as a close friend) volunteered to take over my trip to Vung Tau this week. She knew that i'd prefer to spend the holy month at home with the family- yest hubby and i were at my in-laws for iftar and we then did our terawih prayers as a family- it was nice.

Not going to Vung Tau was a tough decision to make. I feel that it's my job, my duty, and i shouldn't be shirking my responsibilities. I also don't like that people may feel that religion is more important than my job. although the lil angel that sits on my right shoulder whispers in my ears that we shouldn't choose the now instead of the hereafter. but i don't want to go into a religious discussion right now. let's just say it was a difficult decision.

it took awhile but i finally decided. why turn down this generous offer (which my boss agreed to anyways)? i'm so thankful for this wonderful blessing.

happy ramadhan y'all! =)
