Ramadhan is going fine so far for me. I have just realised that this will be the first Ramadhan when I am going to be with my family for the whole month! Looking back, since 2004, my Ramadhan was mostly spent with my MCKK friends.
My last Ramadhan was even more interesting since I decided to do internship for 3 weeks in KL. Having iftar alone was hard in the beginning but after a while, I got used to it. Thus, to spend my entire Ramadhan with the family would definitely bring a different experience altogether.
We have been fasting for 5 days and back here, I notice my grandparents easily get tired after doing some works. My grandmother sometimes skips her fasting since she has to take her medication.
I was also asked by my aunt a few times to send my grandfather to a clinic each time he had problems with his knee. I used to remember how strong and active he was during those days and during this time, he will never miss to bring me to iftar at his favourite restaurant. Now, things have changed so much. It’s no longer him to drive me around but now I take the responsibility to take a good care on him (yet there were times when he refused my help).
To put things in perspective, I think we take a lot of things for granted sometimes. I have always thought that my grandparents can always prepare my favourite meal each time the whole family gathers for iftar. Now, with the latest development, I doubt the same thing would happen again.
Despite staying close to the family, there are so many things that bother me right now. I think I just need to get them out of my chest quickly. I hope with full blessings of Ramadhan, everything will be just fine.
happy fasting fendy!
