Ramadanへようこそ!

Ramadan is set to kick off tomorrow with the first fasting day.
This is challenging with the rising temperatures, hot summer and dry day.
Particularly for the Muslims in the northern hemisphere where the days will be soooo long.
In UK, if I'm not mistaken, fasting could be as long as 19 hours!

My God!

This is look so impossible! 

However, look at them.



They are so eagerly await this month of blessings and excitedly welcoming Ramadan. Thanks God for this amazing creatures that You give me. I am blessed that I am surrounded with the people who always kept me on the right track, bringing me closer to Allah and inspire me to be a better person.
Alhamdulillah, I just feel so lucky to have crossed path with them.

Speaking of friends, my mom always tell me, choose your friend wisely.
But I would think no. I shouldn't be too choosy and be friend with all, making as many friends as I can. But, now I get it.
I have a lot of friends, but as I grow up I realise that the friends who remind me about life priorities, the ones who I can spill my heart and soul to, I can count with probably one hand. 

And this also reflect me back of what kind of friend that I am.
I always take for granted these people. People who always listen and genuinely interested in the good and bad of me, who willing to share the pieces of my life. Sometimes, I am too busy doing grown up stuff, until i forget to put other things on pause mode and focus on our friendship. 

Sorry.

So, hopefully this Ramadan could bring me a great opportunity to become a better version of me.
