Saturday

I worked briefly this morning. I wear my hijab to work now. I like wearing it. I like being proud of being modest. I like being beautiful for being me and not because I'm pretty or have pretty hair or a nice figure. I'm glad I don't even have to worry about those things anymore.

I want to learn more about Islam. I want to talk to another Muslim woman who knows what she's doing. I want to talk to someone who doesn't stumble over her Salat every day, who doesn't think twice when planning her clothes for the day, who doesn't constantly adjust her hijab when she moves. I want to talk to someone who can help and guide me. I want to talk to someone who can show me what to do. I know, I know I should have done this before my Shahada, but I was too excited. Hindsight is 20/20

On another note, I love my husband. Jordan is such an amazing asset to my life. I love being around him. I love how he supports me and cares about me all the time. He's so amazing.
