fasting
so, i've decided to try a 10-day fast starting next thursday. it's time to purify... detoxify my liver, lungs, bladder, pores, mind, soul, heart... how can i do any good in this world when i'm basically a walking toxic waste dump?
i have allowed the past two years to be really hard on me... not just on my body, but my heart as well. i have dealt with pain like a child... but i know i have a strong soul and my earthly body and selfish emotions have been talking louder for too long. i want to take this opportunity to quit dwelling on the past and look forward to future possibilities, capabilities -- recycling is great in the pragmatic sense, but the body is a renewable resource. i will also use this process to quit smoking, a habit that's defined a large part of my life for long enough.
i'm taking this next week to prepare and have been researching this a little on the internet, which is basically a cemetary of bull shit, so i really want to find some credible books... just some kind of guide so i know that i'm not really dying... but i suppose my body will know that anyhow. have any of you ever done this?
spring is coming -- a season of rebirth and life. today was gorgeous! the best day (weather-wise) in a long while. i love the sun. the smells of spring are certainly beginning to emerge again as well, bringing with them senses of nostalgia... i don't know why, but spring is the only season that really makes me feel that way. things i thought had been forgotten always flow back around this time of year.
i can't wait to see -- and feel-- everything being born again.
