Ramadan, Now & ThenIt used to be beautiful, I use to wait for this month to arrive so I could fast and sit together with my family and friends having Iftar and then heading out and play games that we only play during Ramadan. The streets are empty and people are friendly.
Now its one of the worst months, I hate this month, not in the sense that I don't want to fast. Its the people's attitudes. Just today I say over 6 really bad car accidents! In less than 4 hours!! What's wrong with people? Honestly! People are grumpier and their morals have dissapeared and the worse thing is that they blame their behavior on fasting, as if it is ok to be rude if you are fasting.
Then don't fast! For God's sake! If you have problems because you can't smoke, then screw the fasting and smoke! If you can't function because you didn't have your morning cup of coffee and you start to give everybody a hard time, then please, by all means, I want you to have a cup of coffee because basically its not worth it!!!!!
Oh and next time, don't even fast and forget about Ramadan!!! If that's how you will behave.
