The Social Network

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

After the fasting follows the feasting. Well, that's overstating it a wee bit, but we were never hungry as we did the rounds of several houses of relations in this Far Place. (Back in Melaka Noi and I managed three households on the afternoon of the first day of Syawal.) Of course, it's the people that count and it's nice to be part of something that values real people in community above other forms of 'networking'.

The custom is to seek for forgiveness from those you visit, and vice-versa. Something we could all use a little of.
