Fasting: It’s a Skill

Fasting is a skill. But before I elaborate on that point, I would like to talk about video games for a minute.

Last week, in a fit of nostalgia, I dug out our old Super Nintendo system and hooked it up to the TV in our bedroom. I can feel you judging me – stop right now.

We plugged it in and fired it up. Of course the kids were suddenly interested, and were amazed at how quickly Mom’s skills returned. And how loud she is when playing. I, on the other hand, had a tougher time. Especially with Top Gear 2. I used to be able own that game, but now, I can barely get through a level after repeated attempts.

What used to be so easy had become difficult.
