Fasting and Ramadan: 3rd day

I was not able to say a more personal prayer this time because I have guests at home. When the alarm struck at 3:30 in the morning, someone asked: What are you doing?

So I just prepared a small food and bless them and started a very brief prayer.

Later part the day I have to say prayers while sitting somewhere.

No matter how I will explain myself, these people would not understand what I was doing. Silence is the best answer.

Suddenly I craved for coffee. Before Ramadan, I usually took 5-6 cups a day. A day means daytime. Reason for me to lessen my coffee intake. Maybe one or two later tonight?

Read somewhere this e-card and was amused. The message said- Since you can't engage in gossip, lust, or obscenity during Ramadan, let's just reconnect in October.

Isn't it weird? I am a Christian with a Hebrew name observing Ramadan?
