To Fast, or not to fast
you gotta know how to survive

I decided that the drawbacks of fasting would be less me facing physical challenges, and more a problem with me and my own consciousness. Eating does give me something enjoyable to do afterall, and so this cure will be more a problem with me and my own psychological symptoms. Such psychological symtoms, whether we accept it or not...are very much related to our immediate surroundings. These surroundings include the consciousness of other people among other things...meaning to me, that there is this problem of others who are free in their minds to blow cigarette smoke in my face or to eat meals of toxic non-food in front of me everyday. My own excuse then for not fasting, until this point, has been that I am surrounded by people who don't believe what I believe about fasting and natural hygiene.
So first off...this is quite the negative reinforcement to whether I am even correct to pursue healing in this way. There are, however, no people that I know personally who are fasting and not getting better....there is nobody that I know personally who fasts at all. So then, there is no evidence in my surrounding environment that fasting will not work as a cure. Then you must consider that no matter how right someone is, you might get discouraged and start questioning yourself if there is absolutely nobody who believes you...you are just crazy (meaning different) to everyone else.
The good thing here, I know I'm different...I know I'm insane, I even enjoy seeming crazy to people...it's one of the things I have going for me. Everyone is a little crazy, as the majority of people without chronic diseases want to believe themselves to be healthy simply because they are not apparently ill. The fact that they are not healthy does not appear to them, they just compare themselves with everybody else and they want to believe they are healthy. Illness to the majority means having symptoms (or even having a proper name for potential symptoms)...if they are not having these symptoms (or haven't been mis - diagnosed), then they believe they are healthy. They believe they are healthy even if they are drinking soda everyday, or taking prescription drugs. This means to me that they think they are so healthy that they could not be much healthier. This I now know to be an utterly disasterous illusion, the fact that one can't get much healthier at a time when one is not apparently ill. I now know that any reasons I could rationally give for not fasting, would be either that I have never eaten before and should have nothing to worry about given the fact that I'm breathing...or that I am unable to take the psychological pain of going through with a fast. If I haven't ever eaten before...I would be quite the oddity, perhaps only a slight oddity though according to the knowledge I now possess and that I am now beginning to believe.
A very helpful reminder for me
Insight, Day 1...
Maybe others just see that, as far as I'm concerned...I'm not doing anything to help myself. No matter how much has been put in front of me, influencing me to give up, nobody will accept the fact that I'm not at fault. Despite the fact that I have done nothing but strive to help myself for years...this struggle means nothing, because they can just look me in my face and ask themselves if I'm actively doing anything to help myself. All of my years of struggling for knowledge means nothing to them, as they can sense my knowledge and can't see an honest look in my face that I'm actively doing anything to help myself with this knowledge. The thing I need to realize, is they don't have to know what I'm doing. Others do not need to know the ins and outs of fasting amidst slavery...they just have to see the look in my face to realize that this is what I'm doing.
