Here Ramadan month has entered in last ten days of fasting. I had to skip two days fasting because I got sore throat . I didn’t delay it and visited to the doctor immediately. Two days medicine helped lot thankfully and I am fasting again today. I feel grateful for having strength to fast after many years. This is amazing how skipping rice and pulses ,potatoes and sugar could help me to fast without any severe headaches I used to feel in past whenever I would try to fast. This is true that small adjustments in diet and lifestyle bring revolutionary changes.  I also realised that why fasting is essential in most of the  communities , it’s because like everything else our stomach too needs break to recover trauma of excessive eating and cleanse itself . With little pondering one can understand that there are few rules designed by nature and they apply everywhere equally whether outside world or world within us . I am happy to get chance of this again!

Dear friends sharing some images of our family tour to Mohatta palace and museum in Karachi . Eldest and elder sons selected the site for trip because of its historical significance and architectural elegance. Because of  historical importance and present use as national museum this building is national heritage. I hope you will enjoy the glimpse of this very beautiful building as we loved our time roaming in it’s serene lush gardens and seeing historical a cultural art displayed on the walls of many rooms. Though taking photos was forbidden and a care taker was aligned with visitors to make sure they follow the rules.
