Day 3: My day and thoughts on ecology

Today, I got up around 7ish and for two hours had all these ideas for recipes. Why do my best ideas come when I'm fasting?? :P But anyway, we'll start testing recipes when we finish the feast--and I'm in no hurry to do that. :D

We had a little leftover limeade and green juice, and had something like the usual drink around 10. I started getting hungry this afternoon, but had a half glass of limeade and I'm not hungry at all at quarter to four. It's like I can get by on less. So far, I've been eating more than the other two, so t'll be interesting to see how this all shakes out during the juice feast.

I've been reading Rhio's "Hooked on Raw" and I'm loving it. She says something in there that really strikes a cord: "Mother Nature revels in biodiversity. If we could tune into her ways, she seems to be saying to us: 'Why have one of something when you can have thousands instead?" It's true! Nature just makes and makes and makes! Biodiversity is really the key to life.

It's so sad because standardization and industry have really squashed so much biodiversity. We are losing seeds, we are losing animals, and we are losing old forests. We don't realize how much we really need old forests, those self-sufficient regions which produce beauty and life. Instead, we cut them down in favour of a strip mall. We pave paradise...

I hope we come to our senses eventually. In the mean time, I want to share the story of ecology, the story of how to live together with the whole world in harmony, producing a clean, beautiful world. We encourage healthful eating and healthful living, cleansing both body and world.

I hope you enjoyed this post; and if you did, would you "like" it and share it. Also comment below, telling us what practices you keep to care for the world. : )
