Everyone’s heard of Charlie Chaplin. However, I never really knew much about him as a person though. I came across this poem on Facebook a few days ago. He apparently wrote it when he was 70. He was reflecting on how he used to be compared to how he was then. He seems to have been a very deep and thoughtful man.
Chaplin wrote: “As I began to love myself I freed myself of anything that is no good for my health – food, people, things, situations, and everything that drew me down and away from myself. At first I called this attitude a healthy egoism. Today I know it is Love of Oneself.
We are all on our different journeys in life. I’ve always been passionate about exercise and food. I suppose my real food journey began about 14 years ago. I traveled to India and became interested in the spiritual aspects of food. I then studied holistic nutrition. This is when I really started to reconnect with myself.
