Rabbi Yoseph Kahanov Shliach to Jacksonville, FL
As a means of vanquishing his evil inclination, Reb Dovid of Lelov would frequently fast from Shabbos to Shabbos (throughout the daytime hours). During one such fast, while travelling, he found himself overcome by an incredible bout of thirst.

Chancing upon a spring of clear running water, only served to compound the situation. His thirst was now so strong that he could hardly resist. Just as he was about to succumb and partake of some refreshing water, he felt a new sense of resolve. In the end, he continued on his way not having yielded to his bodily demands.

This victory left him exhilarated and brimming with joy. It felt good to be able to exert so much self-control and resist his bodily dictates; powerful as they may have been. Yet his sense of delight was short-lived. He quickly became suspect of these flattering thoughts.
