    Oh well that makes complete sense and isn’t about control at all!

      As someone who has fasted for Ramadan the first time this year i can assure you, that nobody was controlling me except myself. While i also felt it to help me physically, it helped me a lot mentally.

      I learned to appreciate the abundance of food and water we have and to have more compassion for people lacking it.

      I also learned to have more control over my body and differentiate between actual needs and mere wants.
