Give it to me Raw

Well, yesterday I had decided to cut a few things out of my diet that I have been slowly adding back in. The things that do not make me feel well anymore. Yogurt and Cheese. I love the taste of these two dairy products, but after I eat them I do not feel so well. They both make me keep extra weight on too. I can do with out that!

Today, so far, has been a bit strange for me. I know that it has nothing to do with what I am or am not eating quite yet...but as I was walking my dog at the park, I began to look around me and think to myself - what is this place and how did I get here. No, not the park, I knew how I got there! I meant the world, this earth. I try to see the beauty in everything and I do my best to be in each moment, but I find myself questioning and really wanting to know answers to things that I doubt I will ever truly know the answers to. There is so much mystery to this crazy place. Some days I just accept it and I am content knowing that there's more that I will never know and then there are days like today and I am left feeling a bit sad. Sad because I don't know.

Hi,
you can soak nuts, and then mash them, and put into them a yogurt-culture, and let it become a creamy nuts-yogurt. If you put it after becoming yogurt into linen and let it drop out, and let it dry a little bit, you can make cheese out of it.

If you put some spices into it, you can make spicy thyme-cheese or chili-cheese or nettle-cheese....

Yes..=) Also thinking about how we can live on greens and roots is amazing like that. Like when you really think about this carrot that came out of the ground and it is huge and orange and everything. How connected we are on one hand and how made out of stardust we are on the other hand.

John C...I don't feel like I need anything to replace these two things...but when I don't drink coffee...I replace that w/ tea as well and maybe some kombucha or coconut water. I really feel that I can do without the dairy! I honestly don't ever crave it that much...I usually just open the fridge and see it and think, "oh, this looks like a good snack." It never is! Well, afterwards anyways!

and John C...thanks for the different outlook about the answers I seek :)

AU (may I call you that?), I feel this way a lot. It's so strange because some days I feel that I just know my place here and everything feels inspiring and perfect and it just makes me happy and I walk around with this stupid smile on my face - but sometimes it also makes me somber. It's different on these days...I don't feel it quite so much and I don't understand it. It's so weird how I can feel so perfectly connected one day and alone on this spinning planet the next. This universe is so vast and incredible - I just can't believe that I am here and I wonder why I am here...and I just wonder about everything so much! I guess it's good. I do realize that I don't think like the majority of other people. I only know this because when I try to converse about this type stuff...people look at me a little funny :) I usually start off by saying, "Can you believe that we are here on this planet spinning in the middle of space? Just floating here! Isn't that crazy?" So, I get excited when I actually do find people that think the same way. To me, it's just amazing that we are here and we are alive.

Thanks for your post. You describe exactly why I stopped drinking coffee. (o.k. I replaced it by drinking black tea in the AM)
I also replaced it by drinking Tulsi tea in the PM. So my suggestion is to find something to replace yogurt and cheese.

There's a simple answer IMHO to your perceptive question "how did I get here?" Answer: no one talked to you about it when you
were young. I guess "doubting that you will ever know the answers.." is a starting point. Let me suggest that you start believing
that sweet answers will come to you in their good time.

That sounds like something that happens before a big change in your life occurs. Most people don't have the peace or peace of mind to get to that point- so you are lucky to have that perception.

Haha! Probably Charles! I actually bought this dress at the spirit fest because it was on sale and made from 100% organic hemp. The rest of the clothes I brought were pretty grubby. :)

I avoid dinner dates, because that's never a good way to know someone on a first date. And besides, you never know whether they accepted to go to dinner because they liked you or because they didn't want to cook and they wanted to be treated out t...
