When you take in raw foods, ( at least for myself I have discovered this) you are not just taking in food and nutrients but live energy that comes from the elements of nature. You are taking into your self cosmic energy that allows you to be an integral part of the cycle of nature and the cycle of life. The energy from the sun, from water, and from the earth are in the food that we eat. Being a part of this cosmic energy places us into a matrix where we are connected to all of life. Being connected to all of life means we can share our energy with the whole of life, the whole of creation. We may think we are small, and we have no influence or ability to affect anything, but every moment and every breath we take, we do affect the collective whole. That puts us into a position where we can make a commitment to finding peace within ourselves and sharing that peace with the rest of life.
I am starting a commitment to meditate on the cosmic whole and sending out energy of peace for 20 minutes everday at 7pm. Through visualization of energy of peace radiating from my heart and reachng out to all of life.
If anyone wants to join me in this commitment of 20 min a day or even 5 min a day please do.
Peace be to you.

Peace begins with 5- 20 min a day
Life is a love song wanting to be sung, wishing to be danced, while hoping to be remembered.

Thats a beautiful idea Angeline! I'll join you, but I'll do it before I go to bed instead though.. Oh and I really love your signature!
Fly forever free!"It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look." ~Henry D. Thoreau
Photography is my way of painting the atmosphere around me, opening my eyes to the splendour of the world.. Glimpses of my effort can be seen here:

This is my meaning: If I don't eat enough raw I feel "cut off" from life

I agree, because:
