Because u are like a family to me, and because we share some of our lives together, I couldn't let this day pass without saying happy Eid every one. Well it is not a budgie related event but must be shared. For the past month we were fasting from food and water from sun rise to sun set, and tomorow is the first day that we will stop fasting (and we call it Eid). This month is called Ramadan. What do we learn? Fasting teaches us patience, help poor people and brings us close to each other. Well, so happy Eid every one, and wish God brings it again on us next year

I watched a programme last week on fasting and the reasoning behind it during Ramadan. I am interested as I am currently on the 5:2 diet which includes two days a week of fasting. It was so interesting. I understand this year the fasting period is one of the longest at 19hrs per day due to the time of the year. When I fast I get quite impatient and they was talking about being closer to God and turning to God to get the strength to get through the fast time and how it spiritually cleanses you. I believe in a Higher Power, I chose not to call it God or anything else, but to look at my fasting time as spiritual has helped me a lot. Happy Eid.
