Few years ago in Leipzig, I was on my way to university. It was the first day of Ramadhan. But you know, in Germany no one cares about it (at least I thought so). So everything went like always: people went to their offices, all restaurant kept open, some people enjoyed their cigarettes, some people drank their coffee. A stranger German woman came to me with a smile in her face and wished me "Ramadhan kareem". I of course thanked her for doing what she did. But I think she did not know that her small wish boosted my mood to the top at that day.
Yesterday, a director of the institute where I am working at wished me the same thing. She was in Dubai when Ramadhan started and therefore became familiar with the term "Ramadhan kareem". Today, a very nice colleague sent me an email with exactly the same wish. They don`t know, they made may day easier with their small actions.
I know, I complain a lot about Germany: the weather and the people are too cold, too many paper works and so on. But I also know, that I will miss this place when I am no longer here. Not because I live more than a decade in this country but rather because I feel at home when I am here.
Ramadhan kareem everyone. Hope you all had a good day!
