Yeah. In fact, in fact, so to tie it to, to, to part of the reason why I'm here today, it's on Fridays in this prayer challenge on hallow, Mark Wahlberg and Chris Pratt handle the fasting portion of the challenge. So you go through this challenge seven days a week.

And on Fridays, which is the day we typically fast from meat, they get into the spirituality and the psychology of fasting, but the potent spirituality of denial and what that means. And it's super powerful, man. It affects change like few things do.

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's something that I would pray about. Like if, for some people, having just bread and water is extremely difficult. Right. or even just like a bowl of soup or water, or like, you know, there's the, the church Catholic church has, uh, sort of, uh, as, uh, suggested guides.

So it's essentially one meal and like partial meals, not, not a full second meal, I believe is one meal a day. But if that's If that's too easy for you and you're like, well, that's not, I don't feel like I'm sacrificing anything by just one meal. Like I want to go no food at all and maybe just some water or a couple of pieces of bread, you know, bread and water. then that becomes your fasting.

So I think it depends, but it's always something that I take to in prayer first. Lord, how do you want me to approach this fast? How can I deny myself? What do you need from me in this fast? And how can I serve you better through this fast?

Well, I also find like even the Middle Eastern Christians, like the Orthodox, Coptic Orthodox, they're much more culturally rigorous when it comes to fasting. Right. not just meat, but no dairy. And same thing with Muslims, no dairy, I believe no meat, no dairy, no oils.

There's a number of different levels, but the same thing with the Christians and my family, like, wow, we don't do, the Catholics don't do the no dairy thing, but yeah, you're right. I mean, here in the West, it's... It does make you wonder if... You say you're fasting, people say, why? Then you got to explain, you know, it's foreign.
