The feeling of breaking fast is out of this world. A sense of accomplishment. 12 hours is arduous at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's not a problem. It's all in the mind. ;-) <b>Lex</b> Unquestionably. It helps ramp up perseverance. I'm living proof. Just ask Keropok how I persevered when France when down to 10-men during the WC final. :-P Ness Well, thanks Ness. :-) I’m not there yet, as I still consume water.

We were learning the biochemical processes of fasting in class when someone said that muslims fast for 12 hours at least and looked at me. To which I of course agree and said that sometimes more depending on which season we are in (i.e winter, summer, ra ra ra) Most of my coursemates, the aussies, couldn't handle it they thought. 2 hours without food and they already sprout monkeys from their ears, let alone 12 hours. But if you have the will and determination, 12 hours doesnt seem too long ;) Im impressed Daniel ;) Well done and selamat berpuasa to you too.
