Hey brootha,

About 3 weeks ago, I completed a time of fruits/veggies/nuts only. I would eat them cooked or raw, but I stayed away from meats, sweets and breads.

In addition to dropping quite a bit of weight, I agree with these 2 posts that I was more alert and clearer mentally (& spiritually, i think, as well).

Going back to regular food has almost had similar effects as depression — lethargic, tired a lot, not sleeping as well…etc. Also, it made me realize just how much I rely on junk food for comfort. It makes me wonder if I could/should consider an actual vegetarian lifestyle, since I seem to thrive there & have since lost my taste for a lot of meats.

I’m gonna go back on veggies for a month or two and see how it goes. What’s the worst that could happen– I could be thin & happy?? hehe…

Service is like Spirituality for Dummies. As long as you’re serving, you kinda can’t go wrong.

Full disclosure: I’m wrong most of the time.

Nice.

I wasn’t tracking with the labyrinth, simply because of the whole free-will thing. I recognize the choices I must make in life, and my constant need to be tuned-in to God for the purposes of knowing which way to turn (since life can be very confusing).

But I never thought about me being the goal, and God being the one doing all the work…

I guess that’s what it means to wait upon the Lord.

Very cool.
