Syawal is now at an end and our happy twinkling Raya lights will soon be coming down. A bit sad, but not very sad. Quite different from that Twelfth Night feeling I used to get come January.
I suppose any sense of sadness related to Muslim celebrations comes, paradoxically, at the end of fasting month itself, amid the festivities. It's difficult, I suppose, to understand why this is so and it didn't used to be for me. But it's going that way these days.
