25. Like a Huge Wave

An analogy popped into my head today. If you’ve watched the HBO documentary “The 100 Foot Wave,” you know about the mega ocean waves surfed by experts in Portugal and other rare spots on Earth. The circumstances are perfect for bringing together unfathomable water volumes into awe-inspiring peaks.

Plant-based eating is like that one gigantic wave. It has proven health benefits in every body system. It is good for the environment. It is good for the animals. It is good for the soul. At least, that is true for me.

If it were necessary to eat meat and other animal products for optimal health, I would have a more challenging time recommending this way of eating to others. But we can have it all! A fire ignited when I learned about the benefits of a plant-based eating pattern because all the elements came together to make one giant wave. The separate waves/values do not cancel or diminish one another.

Can you think of anything that has lit you up in this way? What is your passion?
