00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			I was in a public restroom, and I
was making Waldo, and there was a
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:06
			woman who was hardcore staring at
me. And usually, if someone
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:09
			hardcore stares like that, I take
it as an invitation to have a
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:12
			conversation, because while I saw
you staring at me so hard, so I go
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:15
			up to her and start talking to her
about prayer and the beauty of,
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:19
			you know, washing up for prayer.
And she's like, I know I'm from
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:24
			China and I am Muslim, and she was
so excited to meet me because I
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:28
			was the first Muslim she had met
since she had moved to California.
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:32
			And I was so excited to meet her,
because I don't know if I would
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:35
			have met her otherwise, but this
is just a reminder reason number 1
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:39
			trillion on why it's amazing when
you have the privilege to make
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			wudu in public. You.
