The two possible approaches of convincing my family and friends to become vegan: by showing cruelty pictures/videos and by sharing pictures of vegan dishes and the wonderful benefits of being vegan.
I tried to bring them into this world by showing how great this lifestyle is, how many beautiful benefits it brings, how wonderful vegan dishes are.
I am a very sensitive person myself when it

I have been experiencing more symptoms.
Last week – sneezing, runny nose, sore throat, pain when swallowing.

Hot flushes in the afternoon, very sore throat, a lot of pain when swallowing (after dinner) plus very cold flushes (I was shaking with

Hey Cypher,
It's never too late to start fresh. It's great that you know that a raw vegan lifestyle is best for you, it's indeed the most amazing lifestyle, once you see its benefits.
You must take each day at a time and don't set too far away goals. Just take each day as it comes and make the best of it. Soon you will see you made it for today, and then for tomorrow, and then after few wee

Congratulations, Paul, for the wedding and for your amazing lifestyle
Indeed, this must be a lifestyle in order to work and make you feel this great. And what a wonderful lifestyle it is...
You mentioned making raw pasta. Have you tried making cucumber spaghetti? Imo, they are the best raw spaghetti ever.
Looking forward to reading more good news from you....

On Saturday I took pics of my leather boots and put then for sale online for half the price.
Yesterday a very nice girl told me she would like to exchange one of her articles for sale with my boots. So I got to choose a pair of boots made of ecological leather in exchange for my boots.
Today we exchanged addresses and we sent the package to each other and on Thursday we will both receive our

Yesterday and today I talked to my dear friend about what I eat. She wanted to make sure I enjoy a food package she wanted to give me in the memory of her mother who recently passed away. So I told her that fruits are great (she asked me if I like bananas as they were her mom's favourite, and also if I eat oranges).
So she brought me a large bag with beautiful yellow bananas, oranges and apple

I find that I am not addicted to salts, oils or other non food.
I just eat simple - fruits and veggies.
I do not eat food that looks like other food - I eat fruits and veggies in their natural state.
I enjoy my food and I do not crave other food.
I feel happy and grateful for this.

Well, I don't really care about all the studies and all that...I just follow my intuition and my preferences and I listen to my body.
I am and I will always be eating a 100% raw vegan diet, no matter what. This is what I love, this is what defines me, this is how I feel and nothing is going to change that.
Obviously, everyone has the right to choose for himself and to have his own opinion.

I am very happy with some cosmetics I ordered online - shampoo, shower gel and unrefined shea butter. I got a present too - a handmade vegan organic soap with aloe vera and spirulina. I already tested them (except the soap) and they are great, all handmade, vegan and organic. They smell wonderful and they are very efficient. They contain oils such as: wheat germ, grapefruit, avocado, jojoba, peti

But today I still feel dizzy and like floating. I hope I can make it this afternoon to my friend's gathering and then tomorrow at the funeral.

This morning my dear friend told me that her mother passed away last night.
She had Alzheimer in the final stage, she could not even take her medication anymore.
She was a very good woman, she died in peace, and very calm.
May God take care of her…
It would help a lot if you could send a little prayer for her in your thoughts.
Thank you.

I was thinking that some people are so fake.
They say that they love animals, but they kill wild animals and domestic animals. Then they teach their children to love animals, but they feed them dead animals.
And then they make animal toys like teddy bears and cute donkeys and little chicken and ducks, but they enjoy eating all those fancy animal products.

I was thinking that I feel so bad that I can not compost the banana and orange peels and the peels from cucumbers, tomatoes, etc. I was recently watching Tarah's videos and in one video she did with Ryan, he mentioned having to sneak out to compost so that no one sees them. I wish I could do that too, as I saw Freelee and Harley having a special composting area in their yard. Unfortunately, here

As I said before, I used to make raw salt-free sauerkraut. He told me that sauerkraut is more like rotten cabbage. On some other occasion he said that if you are in a cabbage field and you are loading your truck with fresh cabbage and you suddenly run into a spoiled rotten cabbage, you wouldn’t be like “wow, look at this rotten cabb

I am reading "Skinny Bitch" now and I am on Chapter 6. I must say this particular chapter just made me feel sick with disgust and I envisioned all the horrible slaughtering scenes (even though I knew about all this slaughtering and I have seen the respective movies/videos). Those quotes from the workers in slaughterhouses are so graphic that I think anyone who would read them would just
