Ugh!  Coffee takes soooooo good after a fast.

Fasts make you realize how lucky you are.  They focus you on the NOW.  While they are going on, you must be self disciplined enough to say, “No, I won’t eat anything.”  You realize how much you DO have day after day.  You also cannot help but think of people who are hungry.  “This is how they feel.” Fasting is a powerful lesson that a person gives them self.

I did drink water as my vocal nodes have been acting up again lately.  I hate coughing! Jewish law says you must not fast if it will affect your health.

After our fast was over, my friends and I all went out for a steak dinner.  We do this every year.  What a blast we have!  I hope you both find friends like this.  Anyway, I’m back on the website.  Thanks for understanding about Yom Kippur!  Good morning sweet girls!  Have a great day at school.
