Endurance

i fast today. i haven't eat since morning, the last time i had my very last gulp was around 7 am.
it hit me that if one has the intention, the determination to achieve something, all you have to do is to build up an undying faith and adhere to the saying "if you think you can you can!"

So all this fasting thing is my first attempt to prepare for the real competition day this coming monday. The Fasting Competition for non-muslims. And the prize is to have a free meal and special gifts for each successful participants. What the heck?! What's so grand about that right? Torturing the stomach, agonizing over the hours with no food, drinks and all.

So, why am i doing it?

i have been blessed all this while and i'm really thankful for that. i want to experience how the hell they make it for 30 days, once a year. When i think back, i always thought that it's a mission impossible for me to fast for a whole day because i love to eat and i can't stop eating. Now, after 9 hours of patience and perseverance, i am concluding that it's do-able. Therefore, i hope that i would surpass the test this monday and prove to myself that not nothing is impossible if i have the will, the determination and all that. It's the secret recipe towards success and excellence.

i can't believe how happy i am and how proud i am of myself. i can't believe that this whole endurance/fasting is making me so zestful. And i can go boast around that i have made it.

!!!

p/s i would probably break my fast later and ain't going to wait until 7pm though i believe that i can do it.
