I had a glorious day, attending an inspirational event tonight. It was a real boost to my spirits. I am reminded that macrobiotic recommendations for depressed people include being around uplifting people and situations.
A macrobiotic lifestyle is about far more than food. I remember long-time macro counselor David Briscoe saying that all that we take in from our environment, including our senses, is nourishment of a sort and it affects us, whether it is high quality nourishment or not. (I am really paraphrasing him here.) That, for me was so true tonight. It was a banquet event and served chicken cordon bleu, mashed potatoes with bacon, and string beans, as well as salad and chocolate cake. I just had salad without dressing and the string beans, as well as two whole wheat rolls. Was it perfect macro? No. But the evening was highly nourishing for me and to me, that is what macrobiotics is all about.
I am grateful to the Spirit of the Universe for enabling me to attend the banquet, which was feast of light for my soul.
