Eid in the Relief Camp

Muhammad Sharukh Jamil, Class 8th.
Our house use to be in Sadar Garhi and we spent this Eid with a great deal of difficulty. Eid use to be a very special event in our village. We use to celebrate Eid by meeting our relatives, preparing sweets, wearing new clothes and playing with other children. We also got money from our parents and we went to the carnival and bought ourselves new toys and sweets.
This year we spent our Eid in a relief camp and it was very difficult for me and my family. We did not have any money or food and no relatives to celebrate our Eid with. I also fell sick on Eid day and I couldn’t even get out of the tent we are living in.  This year our Eid was full of sorrow and sadness. The government and NGO’s did spent time with us on Eid and gave us some food but they were unable to give us any happiness. Our Eid was very sad.
