The first day of fasting

The first day of fasting beyond belief, I though  it would sluggish because it is usually a little heavy for the first day, but it turned out different  today I feel had a  great power, did not  feel hungry, lethargic.


 I went to school in the morning ,  but it was only short meeting , just took  a school schedule and meet friends. after that I walked to the bus station , i came to the wrong bus plan , this made me need to go back  to  the bus station and it  took almost 45 minutes , one thing that  surprised me was ,  I did not actually feel thirsty, tired after my long runs. I went to one supermarket  to shop  to buy a chicken, because my daughter wants  a chicken. Finally I got home, I feel have excess energy and keep the spirit,

I ended up cooking the soup for my youngest child, and began to prepare food for breaking fast. 21:10 iftar first day is long, but I'm glad I did not have trouble.



when my first daughter   got home, I invited her to sholat together , there's something funny, we're not used to praying together,  usual we do by our selv ,  but somehow today I want to pray in congregation. but something  funny  happened, we pray like a racer  until it is half way we both feel weird and laugh, God forgive us, you knew exactly that was not our proposed to laughing during the prayer time.

Finally we repeat the prayer until four times. At last we done it  with Khushuu.

someting strange happened , laughing makes us very excited, the energy that we have progressively increase, may God give happiness through our prayers.

I also still keep coming to  Zumba( aerobic , mix dance ), my husband asked me , whether was not to hard to do zumba when we are fasting ? I replied, not because we fast we reduce the activity,
we just do usual because of the strength that comes not only from ourselves but from God as well .....


in other words fasting today I feel very joyfull.
