There was something very special growing up about fasting as a family and as a community, going through this collective small struggle together to grow in gratitude and in empathy towards those without. Then coming together at night for a shared big meal, food never tastes as good as it does in Ramadan. The focus on additional prayer and religious worship culminating in laylat al Qadr (night of power), the gathering of family, giving in charity, the special food, and the sense of accomplishment after a Ramadan well spent on improving yourself, are just all things that make it my favorite time of year.
