The thought of food

I am realizing, in my clarity of these powerful green juices, that I am addicted the thought of food.

Not food, but the thought of food.

I realize how completely obsessed with the thought of food that our culture is. Yes, we need to eat, obviously, but do we need to spend so many waking hours THINKING about eating? The smells, the variety, the palate, always thinking, obsessing, searching, burping, farting, pooping, eating some more, and then going through the whole thing all over again.

It's exhausting, when I really think about it.

It was last Sunday, when I had an acidy, bloated, burpy, swelled up stomach that I decided to do a 7 day juice fast. I was miserable.

Then, in just a few days of juicing, I decided to embark upon a larger, longer, more marathon like journey. And it is when I am clear in mind, do I see the addiction to the thought of food.
