Fasting

September 28, 2024, Saturday night, 6:44pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Dana Point, California, USA. I got smart with the second night of the music festival and moved my personal car to guest parking. That leaves a reserved spot open for my company car. Last night I didn’t get to park until 10:30pm. I didn’t mind waiting though. It gave me something to do other than hanging out in my apartment. I am tired of sitting on my couch, watching television. The last two Saturdays I have fasted, save for a protein bar post-workout in the morning. I am not fasting for any spiritual reason. Rather, the stomach issues I have been dealing with leave me without hunger pangs. I simply do not get hungry for food anymore. What is interesting is the lack of hunger has reduced my cravings for other things, namely alcohol and intimacy. I am not complaining about that. It is nice not to have to try filling a void. I don’t need any more junk, bad decisions or bad choices in my life.
