The second day of fasting is always the hardest for me. It is as if I have used up all of my reserves on the first day. It doesn’t help that I have to work at he and both of my kids have been cooped up in the little apartment with me and my wife all day. So, suffice it to say that my mind is in a pretty bad place right now and I am incredibly irritable. What to do when even random sounds are enough to trigger an angry reaction? At present, the best I can muster is to stifle any such impulses as nothing but ill will come of them and I need to keep reminding myself to forgive me for not being nearly as perfect as I would like to be.
May no beings ever go hungry and may all look after themselves with!
