Hey everybody, I've been gone for months. I'm sorry I haven't been here. Between the cold weather, the holidays, and most of all, a massive, awful, terrible, re-breakup and subsequent related incredibly traumatic events between my ex-fiance and I, I fell so far off the wagon. Not only of raw, but of health matters of all sorts, physical and emotional. I want to get back on the wagon, even if it's only slowly and a bit to start off with. I'm out my dehydrator now, had to sell a bunch of my stuff. :( But I didn't use it a ton anyway. I'm just so damn poor. I'm turning 27 next week and stuck at my mother's, with no prospects, and trying to get back up to NYC or the north in general, and just get my life going and be happy. I've been eating awful processed crap, and I feel like crap as a result. I didn't realize quite how amazing I felt even eating only about 80% raw vegan til I stopped.
I need some inspiration. I mean the logic, all the academic reasons are there. I know. I just need some help getting back on the raw vegan wagon.
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and are having a great new year. *hugs*

Wow, thank you all for all your incredibly kind words and support! I cannot tell you all how much I appreciate it. I'm at work at the moment so I apologize if this is brief and I don't get to address each of you, but please know how grateful I am to each of you for your amazing energy, and will say more this evening when I get home.
A quick note to *KathrynL* ...I totally understand. Atlanta really brings me down, and I can't get out of here fast enough. I dunno that NYC is the right place for me anymore, I didn't like the frantic pace and pressure and being so far from nature...but that part of the country is more homey to me, and I have many good friends there that are like family. I actually really though about moving to Seattle...I have one NYC friend that moved out there, and when I visited her last spring I LOVED it. She might be moving back east though, and I'm wary of living in a city 3000 miles away from anyone I know. I loved the energy of Seattle though...I just wish it were closer to New England!
*KIRSTEN* OMG! Are you serious?!?! Really?! That would be AMAZING! You have no idea how grateful I would be! I would gladly pay you for shipping and give you some money towards the dehydrator. You have no idea what an amazing help that would be! Your kindness and generosity is inspiring. I can't figure out if we can send private messages on this new forum, but you can email me at raiynn32 at yahoo dot com. Email me your address so I can send you a few dollars and I will email you mine. Thank you so, so so soooo much! Massive hugs and love and light and blessings to you!
*beany beegan* Thank you. I needed to hear that. It's a lesson I've always struggled with, never having really loved myself at all. It seems some of the simplest of life's lessons are often the hardest, and the most important, and timeless. Thank you. I will do my best to learn to love myself.
Thank you all again so very much, I will post more later. Blessed be and love and light to you all!
