Thaipusam 2017

YA blessed and beautiful time.
This time was slightly different. 
1. I was very supportive of saro 's commitment to organisation of thaipusam.
That sound slide I wasn't before. That's not true. Thaipusam has always been close to my heart . It's just overall I'm feeling closer and more supportive of him.

2. I fasted for a month in a very general way that I usually do. Last year I was vegetarian for a month during thaipusam starting Dec 30 2015. And I just stayed vegetarian!  Now it's Feb 2017.  Pleased about tat.
So this year I was vegetarian . Stayed off eggs for a month. More or less - there may have been eggs in some cookies I ate now and then but generally no eggs.
Then I bathed in cold water for a month.
Then I was you know not with saro.  That's quite funny Cos it's usually him fasting and he's fastidious about not touching me. I think it unnecessarily sexualises things.  I was still touching him all to show affection.  Just not you know.. he might are I don't really enjoy you low so it's not much of a sacrifice!  Haha well!!

2. But this time I did something new. I fasted for 8 hours a day. I ate before 10 am and then again after 6 pm. Most days
One day I ate around 11 and then ate again closer to 8pm. And I'm really happy !
Oh and I stayed off chocolates for a week haha! 
The fast went well and the paal kudam went well.  Very happy.
