First Drop of Vienna Water Wudhu
Smile in the midst of Suffering

After the children's art show, the atmosphere in the medical clinic seemed brighter even though the sun had begun to sink on the Palestinian horizon. The patients who had received medical treatment turned to look at the show and seemed to smile more often. Dr. Layla observed this development with great joy.

A patient in the middle of treatment, an elderly man named Fatima, laughed loudly when one of the boys from the art show demonstrated a funny dance move. He said to Vienna, "I haven't seen a show like this in a long time. Thank you for bringing them here."

Vienna smiled and replied, "They really add to the spirit of all of us. Art has the power to overcome suffering."

In a corner of the clinic, a young mother who had just given birth to her child spoke to a local nurse, Ahmad. She felt a little anxious about the health of her baby. Ahmad, who had been helping to care for the baby, tried to comfort her.

Ahmad said in a soft tone, "Your baby is in good shape, and he has incredible strength. You have to stay optimistic."

The young mother looked at Ahmad with grateful eyes. "Thank you for the care and attention you've given me" he said.

Meanwhile, the children of the performing arts remain in the clinic, spending time with the patients. They sit around patients who have been treated and play traditional Palestinian games with them. Vienna feels that the presence of these children is a very special gift for everyone in the clinic.

Dr. Layla spoke with Vienna about the positive impact of this art performance. "Moments like this are a reminder that even in difficult times, we can find happiness and hope. It is the power of art in overcoming suffering."

Vienna nodded in agreement and added, "Maybe we can also hold more activities like this in other places. They provide a great encouragement for patients and volunteers."

As the night wore on, the medical clinic finally closed for the day. Patients who have received medical care thank the medical team and children of the art show. They said goodbye with a smile and promised to come back if needed.

When the medical clinic was deserted and only volunteers remained, Vienna pondered about the meaning of this day. He felt that the children's art show had brought more than just entertainment; it had brought smiles, hope, and passion to those who were facing suffering.

Recalling that meaningful moment, Vienna felt increasingly confident that the power of humanity and the arts could overcome suffering, even in a tense situation such as the Palestinian conflict. It was an experience they would all remember forever.

After a day of emotionally charged and exorbitant humanitarian action in an isolated Palestinian village, Vienna is exhausted. He sat in front of the medical tent, enjoying a little time off for a moment.

Just then, one of his fellow volunteers, Karim, approached him and gave him a small envelope. "Wina, here's a letter for you" she said with a warm smile.

Vienna was curious and opened the envelope. In it, he finds a letter written by hand by his friends in Indonesia. Funny and entertaining messages were scattered throughout the letter.

One of the messages from her friend, Ani, stated, "Vienna, we are all proud of what you did in Palestine. Even though we are far away, we are always there for you. Remember, even in the midst of conflict, kindness and love always unite us."

Vienna smiled as she read the message, and she felt the relationship with friends in Indonesia was so strong despite the distance that separated them.

A message from another friend, Rudi, said, "Vienna, never stop inspiring us with your actions. We send donations to your medical team in Palestine as a form of our support. Keep fighting!"

Vienna was moved by the generosity of her friends and thanked them inwardly. He felt that even though he was in Palestine, his friends in Indonesia were always by his side, providing invaluable support and spirit.

He shared the letter with his colleagues on the medical team. They all read heartwarming messages with smiles on their faces.

Dr. Layla, who had learned of the letter, said, "Vienna, you have wonderful friends in Indonesia. This moral support means a lot in overcoming the challenges we face here."

Vienna agrees, "Yes, they are a source of inspiration for me. I feel connected to my home even though I am far away here."

At nightfall, Vienna again read letters from friends in Indonesia. The humorous messages and motivations it contained made her feel supported, connected, and excited to continue her mission in Palestine.

The sound of a soft rustling wind flashed across the vast wilderness, and the stars in the sky glistened beautifully. Vienna muses about how kindness and friendship can cross geographical boundaries and bring hope in difficult situations. He feels lucky to have friends who care and have a big heart.

With letters from his friends beside him, Vienna entered the tent for the necessary night break. Their humanitarian mission in Palestine had taught her about the power of unity, both among volunteer colleagues and between friends who remained close to her heart, despite the distance that separated them.
