i've been restraining myself from meat (chicken, beef and pork) for almost a month, starting from Ash Wed. and i thank God that i'm able to go this far. i'm planning to fast for the whole 46 days, and i'm still praying for strength.

to be honest, it is not easy to sacrifice, for saying no to meat..for i'm a meat-lover.. hehe.
i've attended birthday dinner with eating only fried rice and vege where they served black pepper beef, thai chicken, chicken curry, etc..and, another, my cousin's birthday party had only mee goreng and fruit salad where my aunt cooked soto ayam, curry beef, curry chicken, chicken wings, satay, etc.. vege dinners where they had hong-bak, fried chicken, ayam masak kicap, ayam masak merah, char siu, fried vege with pork, sweet and sour pork, etc etc.. which sometimes i feel like giving in to those temptations..

but, i thank God, i'm still holding on my promise to Him, that i'm willing to sacrifice..i know it is Him who strengthens me..
