Day 36
I wish I was in Copenhagen.
But I'm glad that
my sister and brother fasters,
and many more allies,
are,
doing all they can
at this potential
political tipping point moment.
And I'm glad that,
all over the world,
tomorrow,
similar to October 24th,
thousands of actions will take place
calling for action now.
I'll be at one
in my home town of
Bloomfield, N.J., USA.
It's going to be cold,
and since I have no fat
on my body,
having lost 30 pounds so far,
and am struggling with
a mild head cold,
I'm going to have to wear
lots of layers.
But it will be good
to be acting with people
all over the world
at this critical time.
I count down the days
until I can begin to eat.
I hang in there.
It is easier now,
these twelve days on water
for me,
compared to a month ago
when this began and
I endured my first two weeks
on water only.
It is easier knowing
that we are having an impact
in Copenhagen,
following each day
what is happening there
moving toward an end point.
We endure,
and we suffer,
out of hope and love
for those who experience now,
and the many more who face in the future,
grinding poverty, starvation
and hopelesness
if the world's governments,
if my government,
refuse to do what is necessary.
I am at peace
giving all that I can,
each day,
each hour,
each minute,
each second.
thank you for caring so deeply for others

I admire your strength and your ability to sacrifice through fasting to call attention with others to the planetary emergency that we face. You and the other fasters are my heroes.
