I'm Tal, a 32 year old girl (and I mean it in a "child view of the world" kind of way). I am a cosmic optimist, as my friends call me, always believing in the power of positive thinking and the belief that only we, as individuals, can change and affect ourselves, our loved ones and the world with a positive attitude and some good will to do good.

I love animals of all kinds, although at night I prefer to cuddle with my redheaded cat, Mishmish, which in Hebrew means apricot and yes, fortunately for me I love fruits and vegetables a lot so taking this challenge will be more of getting myself rid of cooked foods addiction and some leftovers of an eating disorder that was treated but left some unwanted emotional patterns.

I'm taking this challenge for myself - I want to glow with radiance, to feel like I can take on any challenge that life will through at me, to dance and love and just be the best I can be.

And now for the more practical stuff - I weigh 75 kgs (165 lbs) on the "tall" frame of 5'1 ;) am kind of lazy sometimes, tired a lot and have constant knee pain and some random joint pain, I smoke and drink and party hard, living a really unbalanced life and all I want is some peace and quite.

I'm writing this now so in the future I'll remember what I used to be like and smile with joy from knowing how far I came along and know that I faced all the challenges that I had to face - I'm thinking positive here.

Challenges in my way:
* overcoming emotional eating
* smoking
* drinking alcohol (not much but it's there)
* not exercising
* being constantly tired and lacking energy
* procrastinating
* I'm sure there's much more but this are the main ones

Things I will do to win these challenges:
* become 100% raw (off course ) - starting with the 30 days challenge
* start daily walks
* quit smoking
* quit drinking alcohol
* write in this blog everyday
* create art on a daily basis
* find myself a support group (most likely here)
* do a daily positive visualization

So there it is, my friends, my (very long) mission statement and the promise to a better and filled with fun life.
