When the Heart is Tired

simple happiness

Every day our routine goes as usual. now I feel the change in attitude mas Hasan to me. yes start attention again. I'm grateful that Hasan has changed.

This week Mas Hasan has been working in a new place, in the warehouse of the Chinese. My father-in-law who is looking for a job. So last morning at dawn I noreh used to be almost seven o'clock I just returned home mas Hasan went to work.

The salary is quite calculated per month, so even though the rainy season we do not bother thinking about kitchen problems.

My son is getting older soon already wants Kindergarten so need money also from now on I have to start saving for my child's education.

" in three months I have fasted again" I said tonight when we watch tv my son used to sleep first

" yes, it does not feel so fast like it was not long ago this feast day already wants to fast again" said Mas Hasan.

" Alhamdulillah mas have a permanent job so do not bother looking for money for our needs" I said again

" yes ma, I am grateful for this work" said Mas Hasan again

Now mas Hasan eats only once at home in the afternoon.The same breakfast lunch is on the responsibility at work. So spending to eat even less can now be frugal.

his co-worker was also kind to us often in the love of sea fish, because his canoe in the rent of people to net so more Fish often in love to us.

do not feel the time quickly passed another week has entered the fasting month.

" mas later if the fasting month mas bring a change of clothes and shower there all at all yes" I said

" why" asked Hasan

" it's the fasting month if many people ngabuburit mas afternoon, mas if you take a shower all home is already clean already fragrant" said I again

" yes" answered my husband again

Two days before our fast together with brother bradik mas Hasan went to the grave for pilgrimage.we went the afternoon after asar. Many people are on the grave pilgrimage.

Coming home from the pilgrimage I take another bath to be clean. The night we gathered in the house of Revelation. Tomorrow night has entered the month of Ramadan so if the night taraweh rarely can gather when returning the taraweh already sleepy.

At most I will often go to the house of Revelation because sifa is still a child so has not come to the mosque.

I'm shopping for chicken to cook later this morning. The custom in our place the first night of Ramadan to the mosque bring rice packs. Then cook to be brought to the mosque all to eat sahur later.

Sorenya finished bathing we walked together with my son Sifa because Mas Hasan came home almost magrib. Sometimes magrib too.

I see in the stores there are already many who sell dates. for cakes Lebaran already there are those who start selling in stores even though later in the evening just starting her taraweh.

I bought a date for Sifa, a pack of cookies. Before the magrib mas Hasan had reached home.yeah immediately took a bath, the soal detached the magrib directly to the mosque.

" mas will take us briefly to the house of Revelation yes if mas to the mosque" I told mas Hasan when finished bathing and sitting in front of the tv

"yes ma" replied mas hasan

" we went to my brother's house" said my son

" yes, I will go to Madjid later so we wait for my father to come home to Abang Wahyu's house" I replied.

The night according to my words earlier mas Hasan drove us briefly to the house of Revelation. Just left for the mosque, apparently mas Hasan boncengan same father Wahyu to his mosque.

We watch TV waiting for people to come home from the mosque. Sifa same Revelation fun playing pictures both.

At nine o'clock more they just came home from the mosque brought by-by-by-nasi pack. Directly open in the house of Revelation contains a chicken side dish that one side dish of the fish in harmony. I'm tasting a little for Mas Hasan. Sifa had slept earlier, long waiting for his father said he could not stand sleepy so sleep first.

" many people are going to the mosque" I asked

" good ma" replied Hasan

" oh yes mas tomorrow bring the cake from where" asked me again, in our place every night there must be a cake with water to be served finished taraweh prayer people. The turn is usually taken every night there are 6-7 people.

" oh yeah, I'm afraid later from here we don't know" I replied again

" yes bell later in case we do not want to bring cake" said brother-in-law while eating rice wrap with Revelation.

After the Hasan meal, we went home because Sifa had fallen asleep from last night.

Until my house is ready to sleep with my son. Mas Hasan still watching tv and telling

" don't forget later if sahur wakes up mas ya" said Mas Hasan before I entered the room

" yes" I answered

I finished praying and hugged my son and went to sleep. Do not forget I put the alarm on hp for sahur later.

About three o'clock I woke up to hear the alarm. I woke Mas Hasan to sahur together.

" mas wake up and want this sahur" I said while shaking the shoulder mas Hasan.

" hmmm" Mas Hasan replied still closed

" get up first" I said again

Then Mas Hasan yawned and opened his eyes.yeah walked into the bathroom to wash his face.

I prepare food for sahur do not forget I make a cup of coffee for Mas Hasan, otherwise drink coffee later can hurt his head.

We also began to eat quietly, it does not taste good to eat but must be forced to understand new sahur first Not used to wake up in the morning directly eating.

I finished my toothbrush praying and was ready - ready to sleep again because his dawn was still about an hour away. Mas Hasan still enjoys his coffee.

" my mom is going to sleep again" I said

" yes, I still drink coffee" Mas Hasan replied

I also follow my son to sleep again in the room. usually mas Hasan wait until dawn and then watch television and fall asleep in front of the tv.

Half-six I woke up, right as I thought Mas Hasan was asleep in front of the television.not the people who watch tv but the tv that do not want people to slit thought me while shaking my head.

I died on the tv and I covered Hasan. The first day of fasting is usually We are at home just off work.so finished packing, nyuci, nyapu, and mopping akh just sitting - sitting with my child playing while watching television.

my son had breakfast earlier, I was ready and ate alone he asked also mama Kon did not come to eat usually breakfast together. I answer today is fasting. Tomorrow morning vomit will be awakened to join sahur he said.

in the afternoon we just slept at home. After noon I start cooking to open later. Finished cooking is pickled. I bathe my son plan we want to ngabuburit find fresh - fresh to break the fast.

Finished, ready, all of us went on the road.

" where are we going" asked my son

" want to find openings son while walking the afternoon "my answer.

" yeee "the joyful cheer of my son was so happy at the afternoon walk.

Happiness is simple enough with the attention of parents and invited to walk - the afternoon walk together is quite happy for our child. What's more seeing his parents loving each other without any fights. May happiness always be with our family, son, I thought.

By the time we broke our fast we were home. Not bad our groceries there is meatballs toasted, this satay request Sifa, there is ice mixed equally pecal. Indeed, if again fasting all want to eat. But later eating something like that is full .

Not long after, the sound of azan signifies magrib. Thank God we broke our fast soon.
