fasting, day nineteen
I had some great little reminders today - reminders of what the Fast is really about...
Reflection, planning and action.
Staying present in the moment and not projecting too far into the future.
Connecting with the divine in everyday life.
Appreciating our gifts and being generous of spirit and resources.
The list goes on. Unfortunately, I am SO tired at this moment, my eyelids are literally drooping. So, to be continued...

awwwwww... sad, glenn! no, i'm not going to go back to neglecting you or my blog. it feels good to write each day. so as long as no one (ahem...) gives me flack for writing short funny entries, my aim is for every day! it may not always happen - for example, the day after my wedding? i'm thinking there will be, uh, other things on my agenda for that day. he he!
and awesome about the weight thing! hope your body feels happy and healthy! aide shoma mobarak!

Oh, and by the way, now that the Fast is over, does that mean you go back to neglecting us for days and even weeks at a time?

Four months ago, I quit eating seconds and started drinking a lot more water. My wife and my mother-in-law have already changed my diet to something of a healthier nature, so I haven't been depriving myself of my regular fare. I eat quite healthy. And yesterday evening, right after my shower in prepartion for our Naw Ruz party, I weighed in at the lowest I have been since my freshman year of college (21 years ago). I have impress myself. :D
