What is your definition of the word "luxury"?
It's an interesting question, because everyone has a different answer.
As I chilled outside on the patio this evening with this glorious salad, I asked myself this question, and thought to myself... WOW. Now this IS the ultimate luxury! To have every beautiful, organic, wholesome fruit and vegetable I could ever want - at my fingertips! So many people do not have acess to these basic, yet powerfully nutritious foods. Instead they have to settle for refined, processed foods that only harm their bodies. I am so grateful that I'm blessed enough to have acsess to these foods, that I think it's about time that I start taking full advantage of them, and teach myself to really.. I mean REALLY appreciate it.
That's why for the next 30 days I'm going to eat completely 100% Vegan. Purely fruits, vegetables, greens, beans, and nuts. No processed foods, dairy products, meats, or breads. I really think this will be a turning point for me, in being more conscious about the quality of the foods I consume, and my general overall health.
I think this is a fabulous way to start off my Gap Year.. what greater a learning experience could there be!?
