Taking Nothing For Granted

Eid al Adha 1438

Found myself using a chair for prayers for both visits to the masjid today, just as I needed to do for prayers for Hari Raya Puasa back in June. It's possible I could have managed without, but I didn't want to take a chance and find myself unable to stand up at the crucial point. I've reached an age when it's necessary to live life defensively.

Now sort of wondering how I managed to cope with the physical strain of last year's Hajj, and marvelling that none of it seemed like a strain at the time. Sometimes just getting through is as good as it gets.
