Food Revolution

The Food Revolution, by John Robbins

I cannot stress how highly I recommend this book.  It is a must-read, particularly for my fellow Americans.  The old sayings of “Ignorance is bliss” and “What you don’t know can’t hurt you”, have overruled American thinking when it comes to the food we put into our bodies for far too long.  Not only is the food we are consuming hurting our bodies, but it is also destroying our precious planet Earth.  

It’s time to wake-up, America.  It’s time we all open our eyes and become aware of the consequences of our decisions that we are making on a daily basis.  It’s time for all of us to take responsibility for the state we are in and to vow to be a part of positive change rather than be part of the problem.  It’s not all too difficult to do; it just takes a change in perspective and a will to make things right. 

Lead by example, and know that others will follow, each in their own time.  If you are conscious enough to make the change now, then good for you.  What are you waiting for?  There’s no time like now to take action.  Hopefully, in doing so, you will inspire another. 

Following in the footsteps of many others, I have finally been awoken, and I have changed my dietary habits.  The incredible joy, excitement, and pride in myself I feel is all the reward I need.  The fact that my new consciousness is, even in the smallest amount, contributing to healing the world is just a big fat delicious organic cherry on top of it all.
