Fasting begins tomorrow and even though I've undertaken the fast for more than two decades now, I still need all the inspiration I can get. A fine article in today's on-line version of The Guardian provided plenty of that. Although it was focused on those whose Ramadhan takes place in London there was much to recognise and feel empathy with. And the fact that the hours of fasting here are fewer than for our brothers and sisters in the UK helped render a sense of proportion about the difficulties ahead.
In truth, this is not about difficulties but rewards, and more than ample rewards at that. Selamat Puasa! to all who'll be sharing this most precious experience.
