Puasa

Ive started doing puasa, the fasting... no im not turning muslim, dont panic! Im just going to take a leaf out of their book, and do it out of respect and sympathy for the people in the world who dont have all the food and luxury that we do. Its not full-on fasting, its fasting during daylight hours, and i did it today, and am evenmore determined to keep going for the remainder of ramadan (about 2 1/2 weeks). The Muslims pray at about 3am andhave their breakfast then, before the 4am prayer and then eat again after the final prayer at 5.40pm, but im notso inclined to get up at 3, especially as no-one in my house seems to, maybe if the other girls were, id join them.So ive decided to have breakfast before seven and break the fast at the usual time. Its not very hard lol. I haverice and eggs and vegies for breakfast, which keeps me going for ages... Theres a bit of a 3.30pm tired moment, sotoday i had some juice and rested in the air con for an hour or so and felt normal. We had dinner at about 630pm and i wasnt even hungry. It feels good, even tho Im not physically doing anything to help people at the moment, Ifeel like Im doing something to support other people. Ill see how it goes, it will be so amazing if i can keepdoing it until the end of ramadan, when theres huge celebrations and festivals... It will really be something I canbe part of, and not just as a token fast.
