The Diary Game (Monday, March 17, 2025) Performing Tarawih Prayers and Power-Up Steemit Account
Hello everyone, friends...
It's great that we can meet again. I'll share a story about The Diary Game, I hope my friends like it.
Entering the 17th day of fasting in Ramadhan 1446 Hijriah, many traders have emerged offering necessities to welcome Eid al-Fitr. I myself am also having a headache because I need a lot of money to buy all these necessities, especially buying new clothes for the children and Eid cakes to welcome guests at home. Seeing me who is confused, my family's pet cat is also surprised by my confused attitude as if it knows what I am feeling. We named this pet cat "Oyen".
It's not just me who feels the lack of buyers this year, almost every trader says something like this. Even the owner of a wholesale shop that sells daily necessities also complains about the same thing. The lack of economic turnover that he feels at this time has even had to rest some of his workers in order to maintain the continuity of his business. Even with this situation, I remain diligent and as usual do my activities at the photocopying and stationery sales place, at least it can be used to buy daily necessities even though it is not enough.
Knowing the economic situation of the community which is in crisis, on average these surprise traders offer goods that are relatively cheap and affordable for people in the lower middle class. For example, the sandal trader I met on the street when buying snacks to break the fast, I saw that the sandals he offered were very cheap with a variety of choices. Of course the sandals he offered were made of rubber. Likewise for Eid cakes, it seems that no one has sold any that have luxurious patterns.


As soon as the firecracker sellers also started to appear offering their wares which were mostly very popular with children. I continued to walk around the market looking for additional food to break the fast, I saw drink sellers such as young coconut ice lined up on the side of the road. Because of the many traders selling on the side of the road, the road became narrower so that sometimes road users bumped into each other.




If it is like this, it is certain that there will be disputes between fellow road users, especially in the midst of the fasting atmosphere which is known for people's emotions being very sensitive and easily provoked. I noticed a middle-aged woman seemed to be scolding a motorcyclist who violated her. As time goes by, the population is getting denser while the roads are getting narrower. After buying all the snacks to break the fast, I went home to break the fast with my family.
After breaking the fast, I went to the mosque with my eldest son to perform Isha prayers and Tarawih prayers in congregation. As the fasting month of Ramadan draws to a close, the number of pilgrims attending decreases. Why that is, I don't know either.




So that's my short The Diary Game for today, that's all and thank you for taking the time to read my writing and giving me support as encouragement to always present better works.
While writing this daily story, I have done Power-Up on my steemit account as much as 18.113 STEEM, so my Power-Steem has now increased to 9,096.983 STEEM. I always want to increase the amount of Power-Steem even though it feels stuttering, but that does not discourage me because there is no effort that does not produce results. As the saying goes "Little by little, it will eventually become a hill".
KEEP THE SPIRIT UP!!!

You are right that every person will buy whatever they can on Eid and we find Eid ahead to buy new things and we like to buy new clothes for our family members, especially for the young children of the house, of course we like to buy new clothes because they see Eid as a lot more joyful, but as they grow older, the joy of Eid for the elders decreases, which we are feeling.
Indeed, Eid al-Fitr is a day of victory for Muslims who have fasted for a whole month. As parents, we are obliged to fulfill all the needs of our children, especially since this is a beautiful moment to welcome Eid al-Fitr.
