of course... when people put the choice on me - usually I say things like \\"oh, I like spaghetti!\\" or \\"oh, how about rice cake soup, or curry rice tonight?\\"
in that way, I feel like it\'s my fast, and not a pushing of my practice onto others... because almost none of my friends are orthodox.... because in a city of 10.2 million people, there is only one cathedral of about 400 people... rest of the city is protestant/catholic, buddhist, or atheist/other
sometimes I feel like the whole \\"well, I can\'t eat meat this time of year\\" thing seems like show-boating to those outside of the faith, rather than witnessing to them.
Be the first person to like this.
