Veggie Awards, Bad Days and Epiphanies

It's time to vote in the VegNews Magazine 2014 Veggie Awards! 
Woo-hoo! Cast your votes now because you could win some fancy prizes if your ballots are selected. Don't say I didn't warn you and don't be mad at me when I win! :-)

I'm proud to announce that there was a wide representation from California in the mix. I'm prouder to announce that I was able to talk about this blog in the comments section of the ballot; I had to put the folks at VegNews on notice! Lastly, I'm thrilled to announce my epiphany moment. I remember filling out the 2013 Veggie Awards poll on the bus while heading off to a temp assignment in DC. This year, I was marking my selections in a coffee house in San Francisco. What a difference a year makes. 

In all transparency you should know that I've had a crappy day in San Francisco. My phone was stolen and the mosquitoes have been eating me alive out here. My transition has not been smooth at all really. I've been disappointed by a lot of circumstances here, but I don't doubt the reason that I'm out here and this VegNews poll is just one of the reasons. I moved to San Francisco from DC because:

1. I wanted to live a life surrounded by creativity, nature and everything that's beautiful to me.
2. I was totally over DC. I'll love it forever, but it was time for a change. I'm still a Redskins fan though. :-)
3. I had to break away from everything that was familiar to me to get the life that I know I can have (and deserve). 

Thanks VegNews! I'm excited that you are in my new city (only a short MUNI ride away) and I'm more excited that I had the guts to follow my dreams like all of the people that I voted for a moment ago. 

You don't magically end up in the most prominent vegan magazine in the world, it takes guts and a whole lot of risk. Everyone that has come before me had to risk something in order to make their dreams happen. So, when I'm having a bad day I'll remember that this is just dues paying season. 

Every season has to come to an end sometime. . .
