today's #gratitudechain entry

today I've forgotten to eat; it's 10.30pm, had a really busy day and just now I'm realizing how hungry I am

I can't help but feel incredibly grateful for this feeling of hunger, and for the reminder that physical sensations are not under my domain, but reaction completely is

Reaction isnt one of thought. Its one of survival.

Action requires agency of ones thoughts and body to consciously make an active choice between 2 things.

1 is of necessity

The other is of responsibility

Let us all be grateful that we can have the time and ability to make the choices to be able to have the choice to make action apart of our everyday lives.

I taught my son to be thankful for feeling sleepy. A reminder that the body’s got maintenance work to do, especially when growing up. Now, will I learn to do the same? 🤣

have you ever fasted for 2 or more days?
