Arriving early even before the prayer started gave us a chance to be 'inside' the Masjid without having to worry of being exposed to the summer heat outside.
We got there at around 9.30, enough to find a cozy space for us.
'Selamat Lebaran yang ke-2 di Korea, Mama, Eyra, Freya'
This is our 2nd year of Eid in Korea.
After the prayer, we met our students from UGM. I am sure this is their 1st Eid in Korea.
Being among other friends and acquaintances like this...eliminates or at least 'lessens' the homesickness of being away from families back home.
Right? Yes....!
Then..we met other Indonesian families, too.
Well..we are all students who live and study right her in Seoul, Korea.
Well..we are all students who live and study right her in Seoul, Korea.
Along with our families, we live in Korea and call Korea our home for 2 up to 4 years. (or more for others^^)
For some...this is one of the happy times we have in Korea.
Eid Mubarak in Seoul.
Let's see how many families there are. Hmm at least 7 families.(mine, Mas Purba, Mas Khoirul, Mas Wawan, Mas Eky, Mas Iwan, mas Sulis'....)
Oh, some of our married friends got to celebrate the Eid without their wives or husbands since they don't live together in Korea. It must be ..well..a bit sad..for them....I don't know. It could be, though.
But..with the Eid occasion in mind...along with other friends like this,
we'd need to think of only one thing: happiness of being blessed with the fact that we are celebrating Eid together.
Once again..
"Happy Eid" Eid Mubarak.
Mohon Maaf Lahir Batin....May We Live Prosperously and Happily. Amen.
Masha Allah Eidul Fitr
