Input: And I did. I was energized. I slept less  felt less tired  and experienced a higher metabolism and a clearer mind. Like Kafka's Hunger Artist  I was reluctant to end my fast  which became easier the longer it continued. Several of my friends were incredulous. How could fasting get easier the longer it went on? I felt  as  Kafka  put it  that I "alone knew ... how easy it was to fast."
Among classic writers  by the way   Kafka  was the most incisive in what  he  said about Big Government. In The Metamorphosis   he  wrote  "Every revolution evaporates and leaves behind only the slime of a new bureaucracy." Aptly put.
Was  Kafka  a conservative? I believe  he  was.  His  writing is filled with a defense of the individual and with fearful intimations of the rise of totalitarianism.  His  novels and stories constitute a monumental plea for the freedom of the individual from authoritarianism of all kinds. The Castle is the most compelling anti-authoritarian book of its time. And yes   Kafka  was a vegetarian.
Like  Kafka   I don't fast for weight loss. (Kafka  "possibly an anorexic " did not need to lose weight.) Nor do I fast for ethical reasons. Peter Singer may believe that turkeys have the same rights as humans  but I don't share that belief. There is nothing particularly sinful about roasting a turkey or cooking a ham. I just don't think meat and other animal products are healthy in my particular case.
