I only hear it’s either 

• 1. Intense - introspective focus (Religious, ethical/moral) etc
• 2. Intense - food binging after dusk (Sorry, but that’s how I’ve mostly told about Ramadan. 

‘Fasting? Heck no. We gain Weight. Food is actually better during Ramadan. Or - I think it can get real crazy.’ (One Bangladesh Muslim girl)

The point is - I can imagine either ways. Pray. Focus. Or. Family. Lot of food. Fun. Happiness. 

But trying to imagine something in the middle - (Why? I don’t know) - piety, family/fun/happiness - well balanced? (Is that possible?) 

Anyway, latter (food binging during Ramadan) seems/sounds real happy thing - always. 

It’s ‘family’ thing.

Or even larger ‘community’ thing.
