First time eating in Ramadan. In contrast to my skinny built, I’ve always found the strength to keep all fasts, every Ramadan, starting from when I was in grade 2. Now, I am eating inside Railway Restaurant. There are people around me eating so .. it’s not that awkward as I thought it would be. But, to eat while all Muslims fast is …unsettling. I miss being forced to stop eating. I miss Islam. It’s weird huh? I don’t even have that much hunger. To be what I believe in, however, I have to eat. If I’m right, Allah made this healthy system for his followers to fast once a month, that’s alright. However .. I believe he is not going to punish anyone for not fasting. Those who don’t fast have scientific disadvantage in health over those who do. That’s punishment enough I guess. I will fast all over the year. But just not this month. I have to believe in my reason. Islam is addictive, I’ve got to overthrow it.
