Hi Rich,

 

Yes, I agree! Eating raw is so much simpler, in so many ways. I never have to

clean up greasy pans, or tons of dishes and utensils (unless I decide to make a

fancy raw recipe, which is rarely). I believe it is better for the environment,

as I am not consuming an abundance of over-packaged and processed products. And

of course, the most important thing for me is that I am not contributing to the

pain, suffering and death of my beloved animal friends.

 

I am sorry that you don't really enjoy fruits and vegetables yet, Rich. I hope

that it will come soon for you! I am lucky that I have always loved fresh

produce, so transitioning to a raw lifestyle was pretty easy for me. I have to

say that I am so blessed to not have cravings for SAD food at all. When I first

became vegan several years ago, I really missed cheese, but got over it quickly,

as I discovered so many other wonderful things to eat. Also, when I went

gluten-free, I desperately missed my whole grain breads. But I have gotten over

that, too, and have been living quite nicely without it for a few years now. I

try to think of it as what are the things I CAN eat and enjoy, rather than what

I CAN'T, and which isn't in my best health and spiritual interests anyway.

 

Wishing you, and everyone, the best of health!

It is so much better for the environment. I sort of enjoy them (fr.

and vg.), it's getting there. Cheese would probably be the first

thing I would go for if I wasn't raw, definite addiction, breads

would probably be second, more addiction. The things I can eat don't

excite me at all, I can have them anytime, guilt free. The things I

can't eat are frustrating because I can never have them. The two

categories, raw and cooked are worlds apart in my eating psyche. The

one is good, the other is just for emotional change.

 

Love, light, happiness, peace, joy, comfort, righteousness, truth,

beauty, goodness, sanctitude, wholeness, perfection, joy and

understanding,

 

Rich
