Not that i say,"oh,i'm not going to associate with certain people.," but i have my world,and i only want to be around people who i feel stimulated by. i have to be honest i do have a new quest: i want to meet more vegetarians,people who are more like minded. there's something real neat about that feeling. it makes you feel so settled to know there's somebody else sitting right there,being so passionate about what i'm passionate about. i don't want to be around selfish people. i try to keep myself surrounded by deep people who will move me.

Elsewhere the paper notes that vegetarians and vegans (including athletes) 'meet and exceed requirements' for protein. and, to render the whole we-should-worry-about-getting-enough-protein-and-therefore-eat-meat idea even more useless, other data suggests that excess animal protein intake is linked with osteoporosis, kidney disease, calcium stones in the urinary tract, and some cancers. despite some persistent confusion, it is clear that vegetarians and vegans tend to have more optimal protein consumption than omnivores.

Find a way to say yes to things. say yes to invitations to a new country, say yes to meet new friends, say yes to learning a new language, picking up a new sport. yes is how you get your first job, and your next job, and your spouse, and even your kids. even if it's a bit edgy, a bit out of your comfort zone, saying yes means that you will do something new, meet someone new, and make a difference in your life. yes lets you stand out in a crowd, be the optimist, to stay positive, be the one everyone comes to. yes is what keeps us all young.
