few mnts before my breakfast.... Location: Hulhule Island Hotel.
Its that time of year again! Yes, I'm referring to the month of Ramadans in which Muslims like myself fast.
Yesterday we went Hulhule Island Hotel for Ramazan breakfast.. It was a wonderful day.... i mean sky,clouds,food and almost everything....
One of my foriegn friend ask me all the time, "Why do you fast?" Well most of the time I just tell them that our religion requires us to and thats pretty much about it. But the truth is that its actually a bit deeper than that. Our religion requires us to fast for a certain reason. The reason we fast is so we can see how much we should be thankful for. Meaning, when we fast we put ourselves in the positions of all the poor people around the world who cannot afford food or drink. We actually experience this feeling, not being able to drink, or eat but only till sundown, whereas many of the poor people have this feeling for many days, maybe even a week. This is only them month in which we try and refrain from bad things like...., so it should be good to try and quit during this time if you are capable too. In my own personal opinion I don't see fasting as a burden, I see it as something that will educate me, and teach me to always be thankful for what I have got, because I'm probably a lot better off than other people in the world.
