This is either a test of my faith by God or the devil is on my heels trying to stop me. Either way it goes, ya'll know which way I'm headed (I'm assuming you do lol). With that said, I want to thouroughly acknowledge this test of faith and how I feel it.
So the majority of my friends have been accepting and understanding of what I'm trying to accomplish with my fast. It was weird at first explaining to the same people (friends) I party with why I'm choosing not to for a while. With that being the case, these are people who I can say are truly my friends because they respect my desicion and don't try and get me to party when they know what I'm doing. Not everybody has been so understanding, though.
At the same time though, eventually you figure out who's really who. At this point, some people are showing their true colors. I've had this one girl in particular, even after I've explained all this to my friends, say that I'm trying to live a new found life that I suddenly don't want to party anymore and I look down on others who do. I don't know where she got all that from lol...I understand that folks are going to do and say what they want, regardless.
I believe that getting over obstacles requires that you acknowledge they exist. It's irrelevant to me, but it's probably the biggest obstacle I face at this point. It doesn't really matter to me what people think I'm doing. I know what I'm doing and why.
