Middle East and North Africa	Muslims	QUOTE (Aymsgirl @ Mar 10 2009, 11:17 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't like to get in the middle of religious debates. Ive read the Bible and I've read the Quran. I was Christian for all of my life except for the last 7 months. I have my reasons for converting and honestly hate the thought of people fighting over which religion is right. Believe in your heart and soul in whatever you feel is right for you and let that be said. If you choose Islam, don't over consume yourself with all of the rules. Islam wasn't made over night and neither should you try and perfect yourself overnight. If you follow it you are like a little child at first learning how to find their way through life. Learn how to incorporate it into your life and live what it is teaching but don't race out there and try and perfect it over night..remember little by little, step by step. I've saw way too many people focus on the rules of this and that and be overly concerned with it and have lost their connection with Allah. They have the rules down but don't feel the praying when they pray or don't feel the religion itself. True religion is being true with Allah (God) and having a real relationship with Him.

Middle East and North Africa	Travel	Ok, I know this is completely ridiculous but I feel like I need to ask the question anyway. My husband and I are travelling back to Morocco in May and we have a quick layover (4 hours on the way there and 2 hours on the way back) in Madrid. Do we need to do anything special for him? He has had his greencard since like July and he has a Moroccan passport. Thanks everyone! that should be all you need, have a fun and safe trip! I can't wait to get back to morocco, its been 3 years for me, but we have to wait for his mom to come and we will bring her home!!	Muh and me	Female	Egypt	2010-02-25 11:22:00

Middle East and North Africa	Hello Sunday	oh my- everyone is out and about I guess! I have been so busy lately- haven't been on the computer much at all. This is a nice break actually as I spent my nights online for over a year and a half. We were married on February 18th- I was off of work and the court only does marriages once a week; so we said "why not?" Have to do it within 90 days anyway. Of course, family here is all freaking out... Grandma is meeting him tonight for the 1st time. We are bringing dinner with us. (Hungarian Goulash) Hope it comes out okay! We are all adjusting as expected but things are going good. Hope everyone is having a great day! Baj Congrats! I hope you two have a happy life together!	Muh and me	Female	Egypt	2010-02-28 15:10:00

Middle East and North Africa	Magnificent Monday!!	Good day Mena! I know I'm a bit late, I've been running all day- work, drive hour and half, book sale, errands, drive back hour and half turned into almost two and half hours, semi over turned on OTHER side of freeway, not our side, but we were backed up for 45 min. What a mess! Son had court today with baby's mama!! HAHAHAH for her. She lied and her precious restraining order was dropped, not to mention son never did what she claimed anyway!! She is slowly hanging herself. Now we have court in a few weeks and he is gonna demand a paternity test. I will be crushed if Aaron isn't my grandbaby, but she won't let me see him anyway! So we shall see!! Been waiting on Kamal's 10 year green card, still have no word. Anyway, have a good evening! Edited by Turia, 01 March 2010 - 09:46 PM.	Muh and me	Female	Egypt	2010-03-01 21:45:00

Middle East and North Africa	Saturday	Good afternoon everyone! It is a gorgeous day today! This morning it started out cloudy, which I figured it would stay that way because we are supposed to get absolutely dumped on with rain tomorrow. However, the afternoon is quite nice. I was at work this morning. Some of the school districts apparently have their spring break this week so it was slow at the tutoring center...actually, a nice break. Oh! Omar and I picked out the bedding for our bedroom last weekend and it arrived today. In case you are wondering, I just gave him a website and said tell me what you like and I ordered it. It arrived yesterday and is even nicer than it looked in the picture. The colors are definitely those for a male from Morocco (orange, light and dark brown, and white). The design is my style as well as his so it was a good fit for us both...I just usually use reds, blues, or purples so I'm on the hunt for a couple of accent pillows and curtains that can soften the look a bit, without clashing. I do like them though...just trying to figure out how to decorate a house for both a woman and a man. It will be more fun when he is here to help! Everyone enjoy the weekend! Some moroccans are good at color and design. My hubby isn't too bad!	Muh and me	Female	Egypt	2010-03-06 19:41:00
Middle East and North Africa	Saturday	the sun is shining brightly here. Just what i need! I need to be sitting outside showing my arms to get rid of the ecxema instead of sitting in bed!!!	Muh and me	Female	Egypt	2010-03-06 15:36:00

Middle East and North Africa	Would you still be with your SO if ...	We talked about the what-ifs a lot and if for some reason we had to move back I definetely would. I think I am more excited by moving back there than my husband. Like others have said - money and jobs would be the biggest issue. But were that to find us in a moderate income range I would be happy to live there with our children. I have always been a bit of a wanderlust and living there would be a great experience for us and our children. I would love them to be able to spend more time with their grandma and aunties. I spent quite a bit of time in Maroc and also lived in Germany so I don't think being away from the US would be an issue - as long as I have MBC4 and my internet I will be happy Oh and another note. When we moved away from DC and back to WI I was a SAHM/SAHW for about 5 months and although I thought I would hate it I ended up really enjoying it. I would love to be able to work part time in Maroc but spend time at home with my kids and my kitchen lol! There is always a possiblity. If I knew I could get my meds there. We have talked about retirement there	Muh and me	Female	Egypt	2010-03-02 11:49:00
