Guest guest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 I am posting some of this post on a mommy board I am part of. I am taking your name out hope that is okay. > > Luke, thanks for your great introduction to the group! I'm hoping all our new friends will > take your example and share what brought them here, what their concerns are and then, > of course, all their secrets of good health and nutrition! WELCOME to our new folks! > > RE. GETTING MILK: the answers to all your questions can be found in our DATABASE under > " LOCAL DAIRY FARMS WE LIKE " . You can be drinking Real Milk (as we call it here) > tomorrow if you want! > > RE. THE COST OF FOOD: I've got GREAT NEWS for you there. Rebekah and I made the > committment to 100% natural, local, organic, sustainable food about 7 years ago. Yes, > even for pot-lucks, parties and for guest dinners! Whenver possible at restaurants too! > > This decision came for us at the worst possible time, me unemployed. But then, a > MIRACLE happened, and continues to happen today. Once you let go of the " old way " of > thinking about food and cost, some weird and inexplicable change occurs in the universe > and the cost of living DOES NOT CHANGE! Repeat: your cost of living will not change. > > I came a bit closer to understanding all this two weeks ago at the Mercola conference > when Carol Tuttle (and Joe Mercola) were talking about the " POVERTY MENTALITY " vs. the > " ABUNDANCE MENTALITY " (see my earlier posts from the conference). I grew up with > " Depression " parents like most people I know and I got this mindset that has kept me on > the wrong side of the money line most of my life. The more you have the poverty mentality > the more what you want will be out of your reach. Forever. > > When you go to 100% good food for yourself, your family and everyone you love, when you > ignore the price tag and just get the very best quality food there is, you are coming over > the ABUNDANCE side. I still can't explain it even though organic food is more nutritious, > therefore you eat far less to be satisfied, and even though it's getting closer to commodity > prices all the time, and even though cheapskate food eaters WILL pay through the nose > when they get cancer and other degenerative diseases, and even though natural food gives > you better brain power and energy to make more money, IT'S MORE THAN THAT! > > What it all boils down to is that IT'S LIKE RELIGION. At some point, spiritual people who > want to be healthy quit trying to be smarter than God, they quit trying to make everything > fit someone else's idea of what they should be spending, they quit trying to cut corners > and live on inferior fuel, and, most importantly, they decide they are WORTH feeling good, > really good, eating good and living good. > > But, in the beginning, it all begins with FAITH. Faith that God loves us and wants us to be > happy and eat the very best food, do the very best work we are capable of, and to serve > the world at our highest level! I can't explain it any better than that! BUT, I am living proof > that IT WORKS! My only enemy is my own occasional lapses into the old way of thinking! > The new way is always there, and it always works. > > Will, with extreme gratitude for all this wonderful blessing of heavenly food! > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
