Dear Steemians.
Eid al-Fitr is already in sight. Knocking on the door of a faithful man who has stifled the lust of the world for nearly a whole month. As in previous years, the happiness of welcoming Ramadan began to be felt around us. Families, neighbors, co-workers, peers are united in the joy of welcoming the day of victory. In the province of Aceh, a region renowned for its shari'a culture and upholding Islamic values, the atmosphere of welcoming the day of triumph was overwhelming. A few days ahead of Idul Fitri, the frenzy of the citizens grated coconut more often heard. The inhabitants of the house alternately shredded the coconut that would be used as a coconut milk maker named itak. This tradition has been going on for generations. Another thing that is timeless is the tradition of returning home or going home. This moment becomes very special.
Not just because it coincided with the arrival of the day of victory. But also because of the chance to gather people who have been separated by distance. Going home was like a potent antidote to the longing for the land of birth. Opportunity to chatting with family and friends despite the short time. But certainly, Lebaran moment is also like an oasis that gives relief after struggling with the routine that sometimes for some people cause the burden of the mind. And that is not less important, Eid is the moment to travel. Enjoy nature, culture, history to culinary that many found in the archipelago.
Happy Idul Fitri 1438 Hijriah. Forgive me body and soul.
