Making Adjustments

5 Ramadhan, 1443

One of the features of fasting over an extended period is the way that the fast begins to feel like the norm, just the way things are. I'm not feeling that yet, but there are signs - the key one being forgetting one is fasting for hours at a time.

Actually I'm still experiencing difficulties making adjustments. Around 3.00 pm I felt so deeply weary that it seemed impossible just to climb a flight of stairs. But that also felt right somehow. A necessary and welcome part of the fast.
