I am so grateful!

I am grateful that I found this forum and this way of eating. I don't have it down 100% yet, but I am on my way and I know I am better off even just trying!

I am grateful that I am mostly surrounded by people who support my choices even if it is just because they think I am a freak! My job has a weekly potluck and usually I am not there, but I was this week and they made all kinds of veggie treats for me special! Of course then they waved meat and stuff under my nose, but I was able to laugh that off as I crunched on cucumbers and guac!

I am grateful that I can afford to buy fresh organic produce on a weekly/daily basis.

I am grateful that my DD is only 10 and I am still in charge of what she eats at home and to some extent at school too. Even though she isn't so grateful for these changes right now...

I really believe that this is my second chance and I am so grateful to have it!

I am very grateful too!

I'm glad to have this forum, as well as so many online raw resources to keep me motivated and committed to eating more and more raw!

I'm thankful to have a supportive family who brings raw dishes for me when they come to visit, and enjoys coming with me to raw potlucks, and trying out raw restaurants. My parents also are so willing to try out my raw recipes. I appreciate how open-minded they are, and am so glad to hear that they are also starting to incorporate more raw foods into their diet as well.

I am grateful to belong to a spiritual group who also encourages raw food, and was the one to introduce me to a raw diet in the first place. It's also wonderful having friends from my spiritual group who are also into raw, and who I can meet with in person and share raw meals with now and then.

I am very pleased that more and more people are turning to raw foods - as more raw vegan restaurants are opening, and more raw food shops are online - giving me greater access to organic and otherwise hard-to-find items. These all make my raw journey so much easier.
