Another day

Summer flowers

 The City especially in our Quarter is still very tense as groups of aggressive Jews continue to march down our streets, spitting at us, shouting and jeering and provoking local residents. There's not a single police around to protect us. It's getting frightening going out alone nowadays. You're never sure if you'll get attacked for being a Christian. 

The hot weather continues to beat down on us. However the flowers are enjoying the heat and are blooming profusely especially the geraniums. I have to water them every morning so they don't dry out and die at midday. 

St. Anthony's feast will soon be round the corner. For the Indian community it's a very big feast day. They're holding a novena right now for the feast. St. Anthony is also the patron of the Holy Land so it'll also be a very grand feast day for us. After this feastday, it's officially the summer holidays for us. For me, it'll just be another July and August.
