As day three comes to a close, I feel vibrant! I feel that I can sustain this way of life for the next 27 days. What lingers in the back of my mind, however, is my pending trip. I leave tomorrow (5/26) on a red eye flight to Connecticut. It is a trip I have known about for two years. Why, do you ask, would I do this cleanse now? Well, when it happened last year at around the same time, I made the excuses that June is a busy birthday month for my family and I didn't want to get mocked and ridiculed about eating raw foods. But when the challenge came around this year, I decided to do it regardless of what others may think. I had well over a month to think about doing it or not. I knew I would be leaving town to celebrate a graduation...with a pizza truck that makes made to order pizzas, no less.
So why now?, why not wait until I get back?
As my teacher reminded me, life is always happening. And as my other teacher has taught me, there is no later, only now, the present moment. So I did it.
Is it selfish? Well, a friend reminded me that it is none of my business what others think of me. Some may think that I am being selfish, some may even laugh behind my back, but I am stronger this year and I know deep inside that I am the only one responsible for me. So I take this challenge as a challenge of Self Love, as a challenge of bettering my health and my life.
Peace :)
