I find myself visiting your thread more and more. Keep it up Dolphin, thanks for those advices on old age, especially the part on getting along with the children and their families.


We bring much suffering upon ourselves because we always think other situations, other choices, other people are better. Now in this world where we have a myriad of choices as consumers, we are always wondering if we are having the best deal. We end up miserable missing out all the wonderful present moments. Here is a video from TED.COM on the Paradox of Choice:

a great reminder to us that 知足者常乐。

Some of us stay away from meat due to diet or religion commitments.


Eating less meat also help to generate less pollution.

So for a Better Health and Environment Eat Less Meat!!!

Bon Appetit!!! :celebrate:

世间没有饿死的人,
只有吃太多病死的人。
【好好爱惜自己!】


年少不养生,年老养医生, 山珍海味享受以为是口福,
未必,那是在消福种富贵病; *清茶淡饭是委屈吃亏吗?

不是!吃亏更是赚到更多的福报, 世间没有饿死的人,
只有吃太多病死的人。

学习素食保你健康又长寿,美容养颜又省钱。

活力充沛赤子心,人老心永远是春天。

I would like to gradually, very very gradually convert my family, especially my DH and me to eat no meat. Every time I clean meat in my kitchen, My conscious ask me what if this slab of meat is from your body, what kind of trauma and pain would you have had? Then I just suppressed it by mentally pushing the thought away. :siam:


Other than this reason, I also think the meat these days are not healthy for human consumption as they contain residue of hormones and antibiotics injected/fed to the animals. Also they are not happy because of the very stressful living condition they grow up in and they they pass all these negative vibrations to us when we eat them.


Dolphin, any lobang for support group for people to learn vegetarian cooking?

Watch this good documentary : SuperSize me


Documentary filmmaker Morgan Spurlock makes himself a test subject in this documentary about the commercial food industry.
After eating a diet of McDonald's fast food three times a day for a month straight Spurlock proves the physical and mental effects of consuming fast food.
Spurlock also provides a look at the food culture in America through it's schools corporations and politics. \"Super Size Me\" is a movie that sheds a new light on what has become one of our nation's biggest health problems: obesity.
