Hello Rawfooders!
I just wanted to drop into the forum and say hello. I am an American living in Berlin, and am continuing the raw journey that I veered away from a few years ago. I constantly think about how wonderful I felt, and feel that the decision to return to raw is no harder than the decision of leaving my home country indefinitely!

Raw ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS sticks in the back of my mind as the best path for me, and this is something that I can no longer ignore for convenience. And I suppose I am telling myself this as much as I am telling you in this forum! Every time I get one of my various "daily raw inspirations" in my in-box, I think to myself, "Why are you ignoring this."

My mind tells me this now: You are away from everything emotionally tying you to old eating patterns, and you have TOTAL freedom to create the life-profile you want. So do it! And so that's what I am doing.

So, in a nutshell (or a novel, depending on how long of a post you consider this to be ;-)) that is what is going on for me on this Sunday evening in Berlin as a newly-committed raw woman.

Love to you all.

And, a hardy and authentic "Hello" to you!

Cheers,
Nyaz

What a powerful choice you have made: "to create the life-profile you want."
Here's cheering you on in your decision. Hip hip, hooray!!!

As to your comment...

-You can't kick ass and have both feet on the ground at the same time.-

... that is not true for my little buddy, Fernando, in the photo. When he "kicks ass," his front two feet stay on the ground. Unfortunately the "ass" that gets kicked is usually his brother, Ruffin. Ha! (I hope you don't mind me writing that. I couldn't resist.)

LOL! Thank's Trive, for the support and kind words.

And, I suppose you are correct.... it is possible to kick ass and have both feet on the ground..... I should probably amend the quote to say "to have all your feet on the ground" to include our animal friends!
