Re: Day 17 and feeling very good.
"I need to stop analyzing everything and what it means and where it fits in my life."
no!! don't!! i love how introspective you are. your faith is unbelievable, i do not have a strong faith but i want to just from reading your posts. ive been following your story and you are the GREATEST inspiration, especially since some of your symptoms seemed worse than mine, but you continued on! and the reasons you're doing this are so pure. i really hope everything works out with you. trek on, my dear! i hope that when i get back from my vacation, you are still going strong and your issues, whatever they are, with "person a" "person b" and even yourself are all resolved, as i am seeing in this post. it seems like now your discomfort is over, so you are reaping the TRUE rewards. lengthy fasts are definitely beneficial, it seems! i see your faith strengthening each time you post and that is so beautiful to me. i can't imagine how strong you'll be when i get back and start reading again!
i hope "person b" doesn't give you a hard time about not eating. it would be really great if he totally understood, or if he was like, "oh i've fasted before!" and you two can talk about all the mental and physical rewards of it. maybe you'd even inspire him to do it! i hope that you share these same realizations about yourself with him as you have with curezone, you may just be able to make him understand. it would be so great if you did; but even if you don't, i hope that it works out and he at least won't judge you negatively.
