The Diary game. A Day of Fasting, Work, and Reflection: Embracing the Spirit of Ramadan
Greetings, dear friends, how are you all? I hope you all are fine and enjoying your day. I wish for you all good health, wealth and a prosperous time ahead. Today I am here to share with you yet another day of my life and I hope you all will get time to read and know about one more day of my life and also find it worthwhile to read and vote.
We are through the holiest of months, Ramadan, and it’s already the second phase of the month. Now the body has become accustomed to the new way of living and fasting throughout the days—no longer something new for the body. It has now become a routine to wake up early in the morning at around 4 AM without hesitation.
Ramadan comes with many blessings, and one of them is having a light pre-meal before sunrise, followed by abstaining from even a gulp of water or a morsel of food throughout the day. Early in the morning, I woke up to the alarm I had set to ensure I got up on time. After waking up, I went straight to do some physical exercise to fully awaken myself. Once I was done, I performed ablution and then joined my parents in the dining room. I had my pre-meal before heading to the nearby mosque to offer the morning prayers.
These days, it’s quite a pleasure to offer morning prayers at the mosque because a lot of people can be seen there, praying in congregation and making wishes for all of mankind. After finishing the prayers, I returned home and went for a second spell of sleep to be fresh enough for a long day of office work.
After I got up at 9 AM, I took a bath and then got ready for the office, as today I had to visit the village to register some beneficiaries for the PMAY housing scheme. This scheme is intended to provide financial assistance to poor people, helping them realize their dream of living in a safe house.
The village I have been posted in is quite a remote area, and the portal requires us to capture photographs of both the old houses and the newly proposed sites for these families. This process is quite tiring and time-consuming because the old and new sites rarely coincide, requiring me to move an average distance of about 2 km to capture the locations.
While I was working in the village, I noticed various activities taking place—typical village work that can sometimes be quite interesting. For instance, I was excited to see a group of people carrying a large log of wood toward the road to transport it to the sawmill.
The weather was quite pleasant, and it had turned beautiful after several days. Just the day before, it had been overcast, and I had never anticipated that it would turn out to be such a lovely day.
Later in the day, when I returned home, I went to help my mother in the kitchen garden, where she was removing weeds. As I was fasting, I had nothing to eat and went straight to work. Otherwise, I might have taken a nap, but since the time for breaking the fast was approaching, I felt it wasn’t a good idea. Instead, I helped my mother before preparing for iftar.
After breaking the fast at around 6:44 PM, I went to offer prayers, and afterward, I had my early dinner. Later, I went to offer the special Ramadan prayers called Tarawih. Upon completing the Tarawih, I returned home, went to bed, and called it a day.
It was all about my day.Thank you for going through my post. Have a great time ahead.
