It was fun today in the month of Ramadan to go to the rice fields of my friend's relatives. February 22, 2026

Hello everyone.

This morning in the holy month of Ramadan brought me peace and comfort, as I fasted. Today I woke up a little earlier than the previous morning. After waking up for sahur (pre-dawn meal), I didn't sleep again because I had gone to the morning prayer. Then I relaxed in the hut in front of our refugee camp, enjoying the pleasant morning atmosphere of Ramadan.

While I was enjoying myself, my beloved grandmother called me to clean the refugee camp. The rain had been so heavy last night that everything in our area had become muddy. I did some important things and went about my daily activities as usual. After that, I returned to the hut to rest for a while. Suddenly, my usual playmate followed me to the hut and invited me to go to the rice fields to find some variety and some food in her relatives' fields.

I was already dressed, wearing a thick jacket, so I agreed to my friend's invitation. After all, I had already finished my daily morning activities. I went there with three of my regular friends, with the intention of visiting the rice fields of my friend's relatives.

The three of us and my friend walked along the usual path, crossing a small, makeshift bridge across a small river on our way to the rice fields, the three of us with my regular playmates. This morning in the holy month of Ramadan felt pleasant when the three of us met, and we didn't feel any sadness when the three of us gathered with our friends. Moreover, today we had a pleasant destination, namely to visit the rice fields of my friend's relatives in the highlands.

Traveling on foot with three friends not too far from our refugee camp in the highlands, At 11:00 am, we finally arrived at the rice field area of my friend's relatives. Then my friend saw a pomegranate tree, However in the rice field area of my friend's relatives there were several pomegranate trees, but they did not bear fruit, However there was one pomegranate tree that had fruit but not much, Because I could not climb the tree because it was too slippery due to the rain last night, My friend took over to climb the pomegranate tree and pick some pomegranates.

And we also have a watermelon tree in the garden belonging to a relative of his brother, but the fruit is not yet edible, it is still very young, I also really like it when I see the watermelon growing in the rice field area of my friend's relative, I really like it, I also hold a small watermelon, I honestly, when my heart starts to feel sad remembering my past life, because in my past life everything was very pleasant, but nature says otherwise, since the terrible flood a few months ago, it feels like everything has changed completely.

We've spent a lot of time in my friend's relative's rice fields. We've done a lot of things this Ramadan, because we wanted to find some food to take home for breaking the fast that night. We picked chilies, pumpkins, and eggplants from my friend's relative's rice fields. We also found some processed spices for breaking the fast, which we might use later in Ramadan.

After spending more than four hours with our friends in my friend's relative's rice fields, we checked the time on our phones, which was approaching 4:00 PM. We headed back to the highlands, as we each had our own activities at home.

At 6:00 p.m., approaching the time for breaking the fast, I helped my beloved grandmother cook some food for breaking the fast. I also prepared a pot to boil water in the wooden kitchen. This activity took about ten minutes. After that, I went back to cleaning myself because it was time to break the fast in a few minutes.

The alarm for breaking the fast rang, and I enjoyed my favorite iftar meal. Before the flood, when I lived at my grandmother's house, I often bought this sweet cake in the afternoon. That's why I sometimes feel sad when I'm alone, reminding me of moments filled with happiness in the past.

I enjoyed this sweet cake with peace and enjoyment at iftar time. That was my moment of variety today. After breaking my fast with a simple meal, I took a short break, contemplating my thoughts.
