  1. THAT BISCUIT WAS NOT
    SENT BY GOD👍

    Fasting is not starvation.

    It is simply deciding that the kitchen is closed.

    The body will survive this news.

    The mind may not.

    The mind likes snacks.

    It likes standing in front of the refrigerator as though a more meaningful life might have appeared behind the yoghurt.

    Fasting interrupts all that.

    Not eating for part of the day creates a surprising amount of silence.

    No planning the next mouthful.

    No wandering into the kitchen for investigative purposes.

    No urgent need to eat something because it is 3:17 and existence has become slightly dull.

    The body is often perfectly content.

    It is the mind that has called an emergency meeting.

    There may be hunger.

    There may also be habit, boredom, restlessness, advertising, and the sudden conviction that one small biscuit has been personally sent by God.

    Fasting begins to separate these things.

    Hunger becomes a sensation rather than an instruction.

    A wave rises.

    A wave passes.

    Nothing has gone wrong.

    The body is not a helpless container requiring constant topping up.

    It knows how to use what has already been stored.

    Quite a lot may have been stored.

    Enough, in some cases, to survive a minor European winter.

    Fasting also exposes how much eating is tied to commentary.

    A difficult feeling appears.

    Eat.

    A pleasant feeling appears.

    Celebrate by eating.

    Nothing appears.

    Eat something while waiting.

    The mouth has been given far too much administrative responsibility.

    Over time, fasting can return food to its proper place.

    Food becomes nourishment again.

    Pleasure too.

    But not employment.

    Not entertainment.

    Not a sedative.

    Not a reward for surviving until lunchtime.

    There is something deeply simple about eating, stopping, and allowing the body to get on with its work.

    No spiritual costume is required.

    No need to become the person who lectures strangers about insulin at parties.

    Just a clear eating window.

    Then the door closes.

    The plates are washed.

    The body digests.

    The argument ends.

    Fasting does not make anyone superior.

    It does not guarantee wisdom.

    A person can fast for twenty hours and remain an idiot for all of them.

    But it can reveal something useful.

    Not every desire requires obedience.

    Not every sensation is an emergency.

    Not every empty space needs filling.

    Sometimes the body is not asking for food.

    Sometimes the mind is merely wandering around the house looking for a job.

    It does not always need to be employed.

    The hunger will pass.

    The kitchen can remain closed.

    And the empty tummy may turn out not to be empty at all.

    It may be freedom.

  10. People often Record important events in their lives, like a sports match in a stadium, a birthday, a wedding, a tour, etc., with Phones instead of Actually Living those Moments.

    I bet they will never watch that video again.

    They want to create memories for their future selves because of the anxiety of 'Fear of Missing Out' on an important event.

  14. While doing the finishing touches on the restoration of my Blog with PureBlog as it's new underlying Software, I'll watched myself trapping in a so to speak bad habit acquired long ago with WordPress regarding the user management or the lack of it with PureBlog. 😅

    I'm talking about the fact that there is just one user account and no user management what so ever, at first glance seemed to me like I'll may had overlooked the dedicated option for it somewhere. 🤔

    Then after a while of thinking and reading the docs of PureBlog it finally clicked for me, there wasn't some option missing but rather deliberately not build in on clear purpose.😉

    PureBlog is just for a single user(only me in that regard) because that's the Reason for what it's developer had once build this CMS. 😁

  19. One of the tricks to #writing #poetry with #confidence when stuck (or as a #habit) is to write out before every poem, in some way or another, THIS IS NOT A #POEM, which frees you up to write one by dissolving the pressure to write a poem. This is NOT REAL LIFE, either. Oh fuck, it is real life. Hold my hand, and also my #albatross, matey, fellow #reader. I have some non-rhyming to do! rant.li/atmercurialatrant-li/j

  22. 🦷🍭 While #sugar is often blamed for cavities, it's actually the lactic acid produced by #bacteria as they digest #carbohydrates that weakens enamel.

    Human saliva typically neutralizes these #acids within 30 mins. but frequent snacking can keep mouth pH levels low enough to cause permanent damage. Experts recommend waiting at least 20 mins. after eating before brushing to allow enamel to re-harden.

  24. A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt

    There were all kinds of things of which I was afraid at first, from grizzly bears to “mean” horses and gunfighters, but by acting as if I was not afraid, I gradually ceased to be afraid.

    Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901–1909)
    Autobiography, ch. 2 “The Vigor of Life” (1913)
