Ramadan

This is the most prevalent, the idea

the making of a month long fast for

the Koran says to do so, to fast and

Why?

There is much to a fast.

Purity...of the body and mind,

mindfulness as practical tool and to

celebrate existence, a Sufi drama

in dance or of the universal motion.

And of an order in or of the Spirit.

Eastern

In New York City, I lived in Queens struggling with psychotic episodes, close together.

How I found my way, the Koran.

Mohammed Ali

For a Muslim, the all American Ali, a boxer, an Olympian...one wonders as I do often, how the world and especially those who are Muslim, see us.

We celebrate him, to me somewhat too mildly as Muslim-American, yet new all the same.

To celebrate and even see on television a service, amazing news in religion, a first as far as I know.

Happiness work is a big push in mental health.  Sometimes it breaks
through universally, for all.

Are we better together?  NOW....
