Choosing a Path
To Give Fruit a Chance looks different to each one of us. Some of you may try eating a few more pieces of fruit every week. Others may start a raw vegan diet based on fruit. Perhaps a few of you will take it further and try a fruit-only fast.
I chose this path because I love animals; I love humans, and I love myself. I submerged myself in the world of raw vegan and fruit based diets because my heart knew this was something I had to do. From time to time I give into temptations, I may have a serving of animal products, or buy some processed food. Every time I do this, regardless of the reason, I am aware of my actions, how they affect me, and the rest of the world.
We must always do our best. We must work, to connect with our conscience, and follow what we know to be right.
Those who know its wrong to eat animal products, and can withhold from doing it, will feel in integrity with themselves. Those who eat animal products may or may not feel remorse. It is up to us to feel the remorse within us and use it, along with patience and compassion, to change our ways and improve our condition.
Those who are struggling to follow a raw vegan or fruit based diet have much help available. There are countless resources with the reach of a few clicks.
We can always continue to push forward, and we can always get up when we fall down. The most important thing we must do, is be true to ourselves, and to take care our needs.
