I think my heart is trying to leave my chest. Allah, I hurt.
It feels strange, having time to pray properly again. Before, I was lucky to get in the three most essential prayers, and most religious observances were quite impossible (besides zakat and sawm, of course, because it isn't difficult to be charitable or go hungry). I never liked practicing while in one of the colonies, anyway; it isn't the same as being on earth where you can really face Mecca. To be honest, though, I haven't been a very good Muslim in a long time. It's hard to, when you're fighting a war that hasn't been sanctioned by your faith.I have to believe that I won't be condemned for this. I'm doing what's right. Why else would I have been cursed to be able to feel others' pain, if it isn't to help those people?
