This year's Eid is different than the rest of Eid I had.
First of all, we have Covid-19 which is suck and scares the hell out of people (the smart ones at least), we can't go anywhere because the virus is easily spread and it is deadly, thus no family gathering as well. The second, it was the first Eid my mother and I had to go through without my brother. It felt weird not having him here celebrating Eid with us. The house felt a lot more empty than it was before.
With numerous things going on in the world and our lives, I didn't feel like celebrating Eid. I didn't even dress up, which was kind of ironic since I wrote on the card to my friends "Just because we can't go anywhere this Eid doesn't mean we can't dress up and look gorgeous.". I only wore a basic t-shirt throughout the day. So much for dress up. Lol. I didn't even bother going out of the house nor my room. My mother, on the other hand, was busy Zooming with our relatives, and I only popped up a few seconds to said hi.
We used to take Eid's pictures and shared them on social media, and since this is the first isolated Eid we had with the absence of my brother as well, so no picture this year.
