Amused I had better introduce myself...

hmmm... how to start...

I'll start with why I'm here. At least here on this website. I started reading other people's posts and liked how other people were trying to help others the best they could. That's pretty awesome... that someone can post an entry online and complete strangers will give free help and support. When trying something so different than mainstream, it's very important to have a community that everyone is willing to help each other.

One of my absolute favorite thing to do is research! I love reading and reading and reading and finding out new things, trying them, 'putting the puzzle' together so to speak. I like walking in the evenings and in the early mornings if I haven't stayed up til 2am (which, yes I know, I shouldn't do), and besides my dog likes her midnight walks too! I started feeding her raw meals every now and then, avocados are her favorite. I can barely believe it. I'll have to post a pic of her begging for some. She never begs but when I start eating an avocado... her training goes right out the doggy door!

I like preparing food, I would like it more but there's dishes and I dont like those. I really like having friends over to prepare them meals, especially raw goodies. I'm open minded and look forward to meeting new people. I have accepted Jesus Christ as my personal savior. I say this here because I have found it difficult to be raw and Christian. There are not many resources online for christians wanting to go raw and I have been finding my spiritual journey to be different that many others that I have met that are raw but not christian. If anyone should come across this posting and have questions, I will do my best to answer them or direct you to someone who can answer them. I have also given myself the certification of SG. Smile Giver. The best title and profession I have ever had!

Now that I have written a short book... Thank you for reading my post and I look forward to 'meeting' you in the forums. Happy living

Thanks rawhippie. I actually started out on that diet but wasn't for me. It's 85% raw or somewhere around there and I don't remember reading anything about the spiritual side of the raw diet. But I will check it out again now that you mention it, as I may have missed some info on there.

Hi Snowbunny, welcome... even though I know that you've been here awhile.

So funny that you say that you haven't been able to find Christians that are raw. When I lived in Florida I felt out of place not being a Christian and being raw. In the old days there were no Christian raw foodist - just us hippies! It was so strange to see so many people turning to raw foods because of religious beliefs - but hey - that's ok. Where do you live? It's hard to find any raw foodists at all so whether Christian or just weird like me we should stick together and help one another.

Has it really only been two days!!! Wow, I guess the fruit juice is going to my head.

Weird Christian Hippie - What could be better!

California, that's why. If you lived anywhere in the south (except maybe here in Austin) you would have mostly Christian raw foodists to hang with. But since you are weird and a hippie and a Christian you will fit into any raw food group there is across the country! If you want a strong Christian raw food community, Florida is sure the state to be, but Northern California is a much better place. I'd stay there and share your weird hippie self with the other weird hippie Californians.
