Recognition and Appreciation
Question: Who would you like to recognize and appreciate on this forum? Who has inspired your journey? Who has motivated you to become a better person? Who has changed your health?
Let us know who this person is and how they've impacted your life for the better! This is your opportunity to say thanks.
Friendship
Often when look back on our year we recognize that the highlights almost always come in the form of insights and friendships. This post is about the latter.
True Friends, be they real world or virtual, have the ability to remind us of our higher potential, inspire us to take action and lift us up when we've fallen down.
We're use to recognizing and appreciating physical friends. It's part of the human tradition of community. But it's a little tougher to recognize and appreciate online friends. Often the very people who have inspired us have no idea they've done so. We could read their daily blogs, skim their forum topics and watch their videos without any trace of an interaction. But, even though their might not be a trace of physical interaction, we can't deny for a moment that transformation has occurred.
This discussion is about honoring that person or those people that have helped you along your journey.

I have so many people that I'd like to thank, but I'll start with just one right now.
I'd like to recognize Charles Balcer.
For his ability to calm a tense situation with his humor.
For his passion for green living and all the great links he posts about what's happening in the world.
For the countless hours he's spent investing in this community and welcoming new members.
For recognizing that life is so much more than just food.
For sharing so openly both the good times and the challenging times he's going through with us.
Thanks Charles

I will always be grateful to Charles for extending his hand in friendship and inviting me and my husband to our first gathering to meet other 'real' raw foodists in NYC. I attribute so much of my success to this community, and he helped make this lifestyle a tangible reality. I also am extremely thankful for my friends Mae, Toni, and Angelina for providing me with hours of conversation, laughter, and support. <3
I am super, super, super appreciative of Adam and Jason. Adam is a fountain of information and delivers it so pleasantly. Jason is going to be my guide in building the most awesome hydroponic growing room EVER. I appreciate their willingness to answer myriad questions and in great length.
P.S. - Thank you for creating this gathering place for an awesome community, Dhru!

One girl told me I taste like a health food store.

this must have been where i got my idea for one of my music videos.

Yes I think I taste good.
Ha... then.... why not just get a jump rope? You could have saved a ton of cash.
YOU DO I WAS RAW BALLERINA ON THERE BEFORE THEY CHANGED AND DELETED EVERYBODIES JOURNALS
I bet juggler is GREAT exercise. For the brain, with the hands crossing the body's mid-line is beneficial.
I just ordered a Cellercise, an advanced rebounder, the presenter likened it somewhat to skipping rope.
I favor organic apples on sale anywhere, especially Whole Foods, when they're 99cents/lb (culture shock).
Family Pit
Wikipedia says there are over 7,500 different apple varieties...

Ambrosia, Honeycrisp, Orin...
