Partial Integration

Definitely hard times had hit! I was only able to go to the supermarket twice a month to get all our necessities. We could not afford to fill gas in the car with high prices and long lines. The supermarket shelves always used to be packed with all sorts of around the world items that I used in my cooking. With the boycott on oil it seems like everything else is being boycotted. It has gotten so expensive to just ship item here. Last time I went I ran into Jenny after about 5 years, a lot had changed, she had kids, I had kids and we were no longer cheery twenteh year olds.

I told her how I preferred my kids to go to school that integrated Islam along with school work. She was shocked, and argued how she doesn’t believe that is right and there needs to be integration. I wanted to say my son’s best friend is black and see what she thought about that integration.

I am not Muslim?

It was just my aunt, uncle, and I in the house. There were four of us, until my cousin Syed, left for service about 6months or so ago. Then recently we heard, him having to go to the Middle East to support or resupply Israel. This will take a toll on him I am sure, these supplies are going into be used against fellow Muslims. In this religion we are all known as brothers and sisters. But no one knows that he is Muslim. He was not allowed to put that down as his identity. They should do something soon about that, I wonder how many Muslims there are over there right now in hiding or their identity.
