A letter to all vegans, vegetarians, raw-vegans…or whatever you want to call yourself

“I have wanted to write this letter since forever. First, I wanted to say that this is not a manifest of hate and it doesn’t have the intention to offend anybody and I am sure that a lot of people will agree with me, at least at some point. I grew up as a normal kid, in a normal family who taught me what is good and what is wrong, based on their life experience. I was never rich nor was I poor. I had a lovely childhood and a lot of friends. I was a happy child with a lot of energy who never actually dreamed about a super fancy future; except for the fact that I had in

TOP reasons for why 9 to 5 jobs SUCK …big time

When I was a little girl I didn’t thought to much about what I wanted to be, or to do when I would finally grow up, at least I don’t remember this urge of finding out what type of job would suit me best. To be honest, I never thought about working in a particular job, although I thought it would be nice to have some money to buy some extra bubble-gum and to buy food for the dogs in the park 😀 …and that’s about it. I didn’t pay any attention to my parent’s jobs and I never imagined that I will do the same as I grow up and “live the nest”. Anyways…they didn’t seem to handle their

10 steps to feel comfortable as a vegetarian

We all met bullies when it comes to choosing a vegetarian lifestyle and it’s never easy to let them pass unnoticed. When I was in my transitioning period from a standard diet to a vegetarian lifestyle I faced a lot of bad words and even nasty looks, for the simple fact that I didn’t choose to eat meat. People can became really mean when they want to, I am sure that you know it; but I know for a fact that people are not bad just for the sake of being bad, people become defensive and they revolt on things that they don’t understand well enough. At first I wasn’t very delighted to face other’s opinion on my life

JUST REMEMBER

Not very long ago, I had the feeling that I began to see around me more and more injustice, increasingly more sad people, more hypocrisy, increasingly more stubbornly … and the list can continue on and on. I had the feeling that the world is changing for the worse, as everything I dreamed when I was a kid was now an illusion and that true happiness is really a child’s play, and we are now adults … and how to play ?! It is intolerable to live as an adult with a child’s soul, right? Not to say about those famous words that our parents tell us when we are little children: “Enjoy childhood as it lasts, as you’ll see

VEGETARIANISM & LABELING

Let’s start the saga… If you Google “vegetarianism” you will be surprised of how people like to define and label other people, their beliefs and especially their food choices. This is a fact! We just love to put labels to others and sometimes to ourselves and we get pretty disappointed when we don’t manage to stick to the label that we had arranged so nicely on our forehead… and we get frustrated and disappointed in ourselves. This is so normal in our current society, that we don’t see it anymore as something weird. I don’t like definitions in general (as you can see), but for the sake of this article I will do my best to handle this one particular

Stand up for what you believe in

“Stand up for what you believe in, even if it means standing alone” – Andy Biersack I have so much to say about this subject and so much to share with you, my friends that I feel a day won’t last me to write this article; but I will try to organize my thoughts into logical sentences We are all born with the sense of confidence in ourselves; all the kids have confidence in themselves, by default. Taking into account the lack of courage and self-expression that we see today in the world we can assume that somewhere on the road we lost our confidence and our personality. When did we start to appreciate others ideas about life, more than our

Let your PASSION come to surface

I want to begin by saying that each one of us has passion hidden inside. There is no human being on this Earth who doesn’t have passion for something. Passion is our true nature and usually it’s discovered by listening to ourselves. I hear a lot of people saying that they don’t have any passion and because of this they don’t fell motivated to do anything. Instead, they are doing activities that they hate; they are surrounded by people that they don’t like, listening to music that puts them in a bad mood and so on. These are habits that start in childhood, for most of us and they continue, unfortunately all our lives, without us learning that this is

CHOOSING INSPIRATION INSTEAD OF PERFECTION

CHOOSING INSPIRATION INSTEAD OF PERFECTION I used to have a really bad relationship with food, as a child and then as a teenager. Until the 2nd year of university I never questioned my food choices and especially never realized that perhaps I was eating too much, or too often, or maybe at the wrong hours, too spicy or too salty or even to fatty, etc. It simply didn’t cross my mind that my way of interacting with food was so far from what is naturally intended for us humans. When I was a little girl I was very much in love with my dad and… fried potatoes. Believe it or not, I was obsessed with potatoes, in any way

Ultimately… we are ALL fruits of the same tree

So…Dear Fruit, Let it go!!! Just let it go, let everything go and listen to yourself and your own common sense. It is only about you, it is only about what is your perspective upon things and for this you don’t need to think too much, but instead FEEL, feel your soul and feel your thoughts also.
