Raya. The day of victory.

Bismillah

If Lailatul Qadr is the Night of Power then Raya would be the day of Victory. This raya went by in the blink of an eye but Alhamdulillah it feels so precious this year.
Of course I failed to khatam the Quran but I managed to read half which is an improvement compared to last year.
This year during the last 10 days of Ramadhan I actually managed to do 3/10 nights of late night prayer. Which is so much more than what I did last year.
This year i gave to people more than what I did last year.
This year i helped around in kampung more than last year.

This year Eid really felt like victory. Maybe not a huge victory but still victory... compared to last year.
May all our Eid's be better victories compared to our last years.

Alhamdulillah

p.s. Since my grandma's already really sick this year might be the last Ramadhan and Eid I spend with my relatives. I'm quite sad and I hope it really won't be the last time I go back to kampung for Raya. T_T
I love my relatives. Monopoly everyday, cooking in the kitchen together, rushing to use the toilet and the laundry machine. It's these small things that make a family REAL. :')
