11-11-11 All "ones" -- a great day for a new beginning...

The number "one" is always a good place to start. So why not make today -- your day-- to begin something great? It all begins with awareness and knowledge. For only when people everywhere know enough about the horrible consequences of what we're feeding ourselves -- are widespread changes likely to happen.

So, on this special day, I have pulled together a couple of lists to help build that awareness and knowledge. And guess what? Each list of blog-posts haseleven items on it. The first is based on popularity while the second is aimed at providing you with information that you need to know in as little time as possible. Our 4-Leaf Program tops both lists. First, the most popular...

List # 1 -- The eleven most-viewed posts or pages after 276 consecutive daily blogs

Congratulations to Dr. Oz for appearing in the "popularity list" three times. As we know, he is the most famous doctor in America -- but we must remember that he is now in the entertainment business. That means that what you learn on the show one day may be completely contrary to what you might learn on another day. But, in his defense, he does provide much-needed exposure for the plant-based movement from time to time -- and for that we are grateful. Maybe one day he'll even feature our 4-Leaf Program on his show.

My list was designed to take you down a simple path of learning, beginning with our own health. Of course, the "protein" question is addressed early as the evidence supporting plant-based eating gradually builds. Finally, my post #11 is somewhat of a crescendo of intensity as I attempt to help you experience your very own blinding flash of the obvious.

: By eating the right food for our species, we'll be taking a giant step toward a return to living in harmony with Nature.

Finally, I mentioned two movies in the following list. If you haven't seen HOME orEarthlings, maybe you could take time this weekend for a little relaxed viewing.

List #2 -- My top eleven -- for helping you grasp the "big picture"

Now, I don't know about you, but this morning at 11:11, I plan to have a delicious bowl of my Sailors Daily Oatmeal. And at 11:11 this evening, I shall be sound asleep, striving to get my necessary 8 hours of rest. Guess I could go to bed real early and shoot for eleven hours.
