Eat to Love

Get healthy so that you can live a life to bless others. If you think about it - when we're sick - ALL of our attention is on Self. . . it's as if being sick is a form of selfishness. When I have had an asthma attack, you best believe I ain't thinking about nothing but my next breath. When you're having an anxiety attack, not even a drowning baby could bring you out of it - anxiety attacks force you to be consumed with you. Migraines shut you off from the world to thrust you into total darkness - just who? You and the darkness. There's no taking care of anyone when Pain knocks. Think about those painful menstrual cycles. Who can you take care of when cramps clamp down with vice grips? No one. When you're suffering from painful stomach aches - IBS, Crohn's & Ulcerative colitis - getting relief is all you can think about. Sickness steals our focus from spending time with those we love.
Am I preaching to myself? Listen: We don't have the stamina. . . the, the, the wherewithal, if you will, to think about ANYONE else when we are not well. All thoughts point to Me, Myself, and I.
Y'all know I'm telling the truth. To those who have ears to hear, let them hear.
Living healthy is living unselfishly. Living healthy catapults our LOVE to a new level. I don't know about you, but my goal is to live to love. By living, I mean living well. By well, I mean healthy. By healthy, I mean eating plants. By eating plants, I mean eating more raw than cooked.
Since eating plants puts me in the best position to love, I therefore can conclude: Eating plants means I'm eating not only to live, my beautiful friends, but I'm eating to love.
Come with me.
Live unselfishly.
Eat to love.
Plants, y'all. More raw than cooked.
Love y'all!
Lisa
