Happy HOLIDAYS!
Posted: Tue Sep 30, 2008 6:42 pm
To all friends and forummates, I take this opportunity to ask for forgiveness for any hatred and ill-feelings that I have caused, whether knowingly or unknowingly, and wish everyone a happy holiday tomorrow!
I have fasted for one month, and tomorrow onwards I can eat as usual.
I am so happy for this.
One thing that the fasting month made me realise is many times we forget how comfortable and privelleged our lives are. When hungry, take out money, buy food. Why? Because we have this option. For some, they really don't have this option. When I was fasting, I realised that.
For some, they really do not have the money to buy food, thus, depends on donaters or givers. And, whatever money they have, they will really treasure and just get the cheapest available food that provides energy.
And, here we are arguing time and again whether we should eat more carbs, more proteins, or more fats. For "some", all these do not matter. Survival is most prominent issue.
Well, fasting month always brings me back to earth. I was too engrossed looking over my diet, too engrossed in training, in work, that I really forgot to treasure and truly enjoy the little things. Sure, I have a goal, but surely, some things are much more important.
BAck to nature for me. Time to take it easy, and enjoy the ride. One thing for sure, I am gonna start sleeping normally again. 10pm to 6am. Everyday. Readjust my biolgical clock!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
