I sit here at my tiny kitchen table in my house, staring at a kitchen counter cluttered with drooping plants, plastic bags, vodka bottles, and chocolate crumbs... the clutter and confusion of a life gone awry.

It's time for me to embrace a lifestyle of health, happiness and hope.

In the last three months I have lost two friends to traumatic, sudden deaths. I lost my long-term relationship. I lost my health to two diagnosis of incurable illnesses. And I lost my mind in the process...

But I haven't lost my spirit. I haven't lost my soul.

And my spirit has been guiding me slowly, gently toward the light of health and hope... through raw and live food... for a long, long time.

It is time, at 22 years old, to embrace a future of clearness and conscience!

So as soon as I'm done typing this I'll be throwing my canned food stash, my tomato soups and boxed mashed potatoes and syrup bottles and the remnants of my unhealthy eating habits OUT THE WINDOW...

For GOOD.
