Eid is here again after a month fasting in Ramadhan. Ramadhan went by wayyy too fast this time. The world is nearing to an end... That's what we believed in when time flew too fast. Then again, let's live what we are left with first.
Ramadhan has been hectic with work for me. I was editing students' thesis paper.. Paraphrasing to be exact. It took me the whole of Ramadhan to finish 3 whole papers. It took most of my time, my sweat and energy. But somehow I felt like an accomplishment. Aside from earning some good money for Eid, I spent my time well. No K-drama, no TV. It's purely work but not forgetting the quran reciting and Ramadhan prayers. Prayers were still my no.1 priority. Alhamdulillah I managed it well.
Now I am in between papers and next job to come in. After one full month struggling, now I feel empty with no deadline to rush for. I'm trying to pick up my usual routine again of being a mom, launderette, chauffeur, housekeeper and the list goes on! Not that I didn't do while I was working. I was multitasking at my best! I am also picking up again some religious classes that I have missed, as well as my unit trust submission, classes and meetings. Looks like I will have a full life ahead of me. And trying to be too ambitious, I am applying for more translation and editing job.I really hope things will come my way. Only if God wills.
On another note, Eid has been good so far. Managed to reunite with my close family members, but yet to meet my close friends. It's coming soon though. It is a month for celebration but at the same time I can feel the stress on my pocket. The more you have, the more you spent, and it seemed that you need much more. Alhamdulillah Allah has given me sufficient for my need. Though I would love for more (human never have enough huh!) I am still very much grateful for what I have. I am grateful for all that I have, gone through and experiencing now. I am grateful for my health, my children, my husband. I am grateful for everything. Alhamdulillah.
My wish for Eid is to strengthen the ukhwah with my families and friends, to be able to be a better person following the good of Ramadhan (I have yet to get there.. soon maybe) and perhaps able to continue my working momentum.
In shaa Allah. Alhamdulillah.
