Easter 2012

For the past three days I have been doing a minor juice fast, if it could even be considered a fast. I have been using our juicer to make a hearty juice once or twice each day. Then for dinner I have a light and healthy meal.
   This morning I realized that tonight is the night that Jesus and his Apostles would have had the last supper. Coincidentally, I am spending the evening with friends and will be enjoying a nice dinner. In a totally unrelated purpose of gathering, by the way. It's movie night  :-P.
    I decided that in the Spirit of the Nazarite I want to observe this year's Resurrection Day in a more interactive style. So. Last minute I have decided to do a full fast from Friday until Sunday, honoring the days that Jesus spent being dead. This may be tough since I have performances of Robin Hood all weekend. I may not be able to do it safely, in which case I will eat something if the situation becomes unsafe. I would like to make it though.
   It's certainly not a new tradition I am going to keep every year, but it seemed appropriate to try out this year.

  1. So, after doing a show last night and two shows in wait for the day I have decided to end the fast at sunset. This will at least give me some nourishment for the second show and Amber's Shmimprov show afterwards.
