Evolve! or fade away...

We have a choice every minute of everyday to make. One be good to yourself, two don't give a crap!

Seems like everyday I evolve into something new. I try to read as much as I can everyday to inform myself. I'm an addict to self help books. I enjoy learning how to better help myself now the chore is to implement the lessons I have learned.

I read some where that if you do something so many times it becomes a habit. I have to say I really do believe that. When I became a vegan I really wanted to feel better about my weight. It was motivation enough for me to give up all foods I grew up on and loved. Months have passed and I'm feeling good about my decision about being vegan but I now have different purpose in being one.

I know I cant go save the world but you know what I can do my part in changing me and those around me. Information is every where about the effect we are doing not only to our bodies but the earth we claim to love so much. I'm amazed how when the blinders are on how ruthless people can be not only with themselves but with the animals we share this earth with. Makes me so sad for them and those it effects.

We as a whole can make a change but choose not to I'm dumb founded by this. Don't you want to be healthy? Don't you want to have a earth for your great grandchildren? They say life is but a whisper, so why think your whisper is any more important than the whispers of those to come?

Make a choice today to make small changes, even if you cant give meat up souly do it for a day it will save this:

7 FOOTBALL FIELDS A MINUTE OF AMAZON FOREST DESTROYED FOR GRAZING OF ANIMALS

FOR EVERY HAMBURGER EATEN 55 SQUARE FEET OF FOREST HAVE BEEN DESTROYED FOR EVER

2500 GALLONS OF WATER TO PROCESS 1 LB OF BEEF

80% OF OUR FRESH WATER IS TO WATER LIVE STOCK

55% OF THE EARTHS EROSION IS FROM LIVE STOCK

50% OF THE ANTIBIOTICS ARE USED ON LIVE STOCK

MORE THAN 1/2 OF TOP SOIL HAS BEEN LOSSED FOR EVER DUE TO LIVE STOCK

CANCER

DIABETES

HEART DISEASE

WATER POLLUTION FROM 120 TONS OF ANIMAL POO

THE LIST CAN GO ON ON ON ON AND ON

My point is that we need to start caring for ourselves our family and most of all our earth counts on us. If there is no earth there is no us!!
