The first day of my rice adventure is starting off kind of rough. I wake up at 5am and accidently looked at my clock. Once I look at my clock I can’t fall back to sleep so now I have been up since 5 this morning. With a start like that to my day, I know that day 1 will not be easy. However, things quickly changed when I had my first bowl of rice. I had made it seem so horrible to eat plain white rice in my mind. But actually it wasn’t that bad, I kind of enjoyed it. It was still a bit of a change, though I think it might not be such a bad change. My water bottle hardly left my side today; I have already drunk enough water to fill an Olympic size pool. Which is 164ft in length and 82ft in width, that is a lot of water! I went for coffee with a friend at Brewed Awakening this morning but I didn`t get a drink other than water. I sat as we talked and watched her drink her Chai Tea Latte. I don`t even like Chai Tea but just knowing I couldn’t have it just made me so sad. As if Chai Tea was one of the most wonderful things ever that was until I smelled someone else`s drink. I know for sure that there was coffee in it, which started my craving for coffee.
It is only day 1 and I have already been awaken to how much I love coffee. Something`s you just don’t realize until it`s too late. Like now for instance, I can`t have coffee for a month, a whole month without my true love will not be easy. I already miss coffee! I also think that my smelling sense has been heightened, because I could smell everything in our house. The coffee brewing, the egg sandwich, and all the spices when I opened the cupboard, will this last forever? Or is it just because I know I can`t have it that I can smell it better.
Proud of you my friend. Don't forget that God's Word will help sustain you. So whenever you are missin all the fun foods, take a bite of His Word! After all, our spiritual Growth Project is to help us grow spiritually. :)
