"People become what they expect themselves to become," Mahatma Gandhi

I am thoroughly enjoying studying Gandhi.  He was a very wise man, who has passed on much wisdom for those willing to listen to/read about him.  I love the quote above.  I could talk about this for hours, but I don't have time for that, and you don't want to read it.  (thank goodness my thoughts are somewhat filtered before they spill out in this blog!)  The power of the mind, the power of one's willingness is unlimited.  If asked a year ago, even 6 months ago, if I thought that I could go for over 45 days without food--by choice--I would never have believed it.  I think that the reason that I have been able to be strong through all of this is because I took a vow.  I said that I was going to commit my life to peace.  I said that I was going to complete this fast unless medical complications prevented it.  And it looks as if I am going to make it. 
I believe that I am going to start altering my intake over the next week, in order to be able to break this fast with the rest of my community on the 21st without getting terribly sick.  I'm not real sure what to do, I suppose that I should start gradually drinking vegetable and fruit juices.  I know that after the 21st, my meals will have to be small, and consist of easily digestable foods.  Does anyone out there have any advice about the best way to go about this?
This has been a hectic day, and it continues to be. I'm trying to prepare for a trip to Colorado for a family wedding. It always seems that I leave the majority of things until last minute. I have to have lists....sometimes I even have lists of lists. Without these, I'm bound to forget something of major importance. (wedding gift... plane ticket, etc.)  Last night I got to be a guest co-host for Mark Haim's radio show, Evening Edition. We talked about Troops Home FAST, as well as other current political issues. I've discovered that I might be able to attach a podcast enclosure to this blog, so I will try that.....okay, not having any luck there, maybe just a link.
I probably won't write until Monday--I hope everyone has a great weekend.
