pumpkin

is a fruit i used to value more for its looks than for its flavours, so for many years i ignored pumpkin as a food source and if someone offered me one, i used to refuse it. only once i made an exception. it was about twelve years ago. i had a neighbour tereza she had cerebral palsy and was a very lonely girl and she use to often visit me. i used to make yummy fresh fruit juices for us from my own fruit and after some time she came over with a pumpkin. i asked her what the pumpkin was for, and she said for juicing i said hmmm i don't think it is going to be very nice juice, and she said, why not? pumpkin is yummy. well i wanted to make her happy and i made the pumpkin juice and i was very surprised how tasty it was. but i also for some reason forgot about it and i never juiced any pumpkin again.

a bit over two months ago me and mango were given a pumpkin while visiting fruitopia i refused it at first but i decided to take it as a house decoration and a few weeks later i left overseas for two months to visit my family and friends and when i returned i saw the pumpkin in our kitchen and i asked if it is the one from fruitopia and mango said no, he juiced it with tomato and cucumber and this one was given to him by a man at the local markets who sells fresh produce from his garden. mango refused the pumpkin as well but the man insisted so mango took it.

today, this afternoon, when we were wondering what to eat next, mango suggested pumpkin and tomato juice. i said hmmm, this sounds very interesting, so mango went ahead and made it. and to my big surprise it was a very delicious drink, i enjoyed to its last drop.

and later on we ate the pumpkin and tomato pulp from the juicer mixed with avocado. i ate it first without avocado and later on i added half of an avo and it was both ways delicious. it was again mango's idea.

well, for so many years i ignored such an awesome treat. amazing. sometimes i have a treasure right in front of my nose and i don't even notice it. i learned from this experience to be more slow in refusing any fruit and pay more attention to it.

pumpkin is not only a beautiful fruit to look at, but it is also very tasty fruit for juicing.

pumpkins grow easily they don't need much water as well and i am sure there will be from now on always pumpkins growing in our fruity garden. yum, yummy, yum. i think tomorrow i am going to sow some pumpkin seeds from the pumpkin we ate and drank today. and even though it was a small one, we have another half left for tomorrow.

today we drank pineapple orange juice, we ate longans in the sunny garden, we drank orange mandarin juice, then pumpkin tomato juice, later on we ate pumpkin tomato pulp with avocado, then we ate cucumber tomato avo mix, and finally we finished off the longans.

raw fresh fruit

always appealed to me through it's sweet aroma and yummy taste, and it was always my most favorite food, therefore it was not difficult to find the way to my fruitarian lifestyle and stay faithful to it.

since the time i started living on raw fresh fruit, it's pleasant scents, colours and tastes have grown even closer to my heart, and i've fallen in love with fruit more than ever. and just like every true love never dies, but on the contrary lives and grows, so do fruit trees, and like true love, they are very giving. - full of lovely aromatic tasty gifts of amazing and adorable colours and shapes. every fruit is unique and original and beautifully decorates my place.

of all the foods known to man, raw fresh fruit is the easiest and fastest to digest and therefore does not put a strain on the digestive system such as other plants, fats, meats, eggs, milk and everything else that most humans live on, that is not fruit.

raw fresh fruit contains a lot of fruit juice, and supplies our body with all it's required liquid, and that's why a true fruitarian does not experience thirst and therefore there is no need to supply additional liquid via water from tap, well, spring or as has been in fashion for some years now, from plastic and rarely glass bottles.

raw fresh fruit is rich with all necessary nutrition, which guarantees ones optimal health

raw fresh fruit is the natural food for humans

raw fresh fruit has a lot of enemies, people who are missing out on wellness and the joy of life.

with raw fresh fruit life is beautiful.



grapes, rambutan and mango



grapes and the sun inside and out



my man mango (49) and our friend premi (over sixty) they are both fruitarians and they don't complain



fruity me (52) and i also don't complain

since mango

began pointing out all my old habits of incorrect english grammar, i find it more difficult to write in english. i am very glad that he is teaching me, but i've built a little wall, preventing me from writing more often, which i would really like to be doing, so i am facing some english writing dilemmas. and there is another obstacle in the way of my english writing. each time i write an engish text for my blog, i would like to post it immediately, but that's just not possible, i do not feel comfortable posting it with my mistakes, and i have to wait for mango, when it suits him, so's he can correct my grammar mistakes. we do it always together, so i can see what i am doing wrong, and it is a useful part of my learning. the process of my learning is a bit slow, because my incorrect english grammar is very old and very engraved in my brain. so these are the reasons why i do not write much any more. i am hoping to work on it and tear those walls down and write more often.

the truth is, the time is near, when i am not going to have much time for writing. i am leaving on the end of this month, for some time to see my family and friends and will be really busy with little time for any pc stuff. i would use it only for keeping in touch with mango.

me and mango, we are enjoying a lot of yummy fruits, enjoying sharing our fruitarian lifestyle. we are eating mostly red paw paw, lots of akee - our other very favorite fruit on the top of the list of our favorites right next to the magical durian. fresh durian yum, yum, yum. passion fruit, we ate heaps of white nectarines, but their season is almost over and they are not so tasty any more. we are also eating a lot of a very sweet grapes, very sweet and creamy cucumbers, yummy tomatoes and avocados. we are eating a bit less of rambutans, lychees, jackfruit, mangosteens..

we are drinking lots of oranges, cucumbers at times with a dash of tomato, grapes, apple and orange, pineapple, rockmelons and sometimes watermelon, but i drink more than mango, he is not so keen on them, and i also drink watermelon rind all by myself.

i am sure i forgot some kinds of fruit we are eating, drinking, but i do not want to sit here and think about it, i just want to keep on writing.

the garden is very happy, we are getting a fair bit of rain with yummy sunny breaks, and we are happy too, watching all our plants growing slowly everyday. the first cucumbers are going to be ready for harvest very soon. today we were admiring tiny babies of akee trees. lots of paw paws coming out as well, and some small paw paw trees transplanted from fruitopia that have picked up and growing very quickly and they are healthy. we also planted and are watching tomatoes grow. soon after we moved into this house, i got some nice big aloe given to me and three of them are ready to flower soon, and some of them are having babies. our garden gives us a lot of beauty, excitement and fun.

we enjoy swimming in the nearby barron river. i love rivers, i spent so many years by the coast, that i forgot about how much they used to mean to me. i am grateful to have them back in my life.

me and mango we live happy, peaceful fruitful fruity life

life is beautiful

cyber world

the cyber world is growing in popularity as time goes by..

it took me 5 years to make a decision to join it. it was not easy to make up my mind, i do not like a plastic artificial world, i do not like to look into the screen, and all in all i prefer "real" life experiences. i prefer to read words printed on paper than on a pc screen, i prefer to meet people outside of the internet, and talk to them face to face, rather than on the internet. it is true that i've made some cyber friends, and i met mango, my fruitarian and very sweet partner thanks to giving in and getting the pc in the year two thousand. so it surely was worthwhile to join in. to make that decision in the end was influenced by my recycling awareness. i loved the idea, that i could save a lot and lot of paper. and the time searching for information, or buying certain goods like travelling tickets and so on.. saving time, money and paper thanks to email, to name just a few advantages of a pc and the internet.

well, i have been a part of cyber space for a while now, and i noticed that to my amazement a lot of people from the raw food world are very busy out there, they have many websites, visiting and contributing to a lot of forums and so on. i would have thought that raw food was also about a healthy lifestyle, and so i wonder how some of those cyber raw busy bees manage to find the spare time for it. i've never thought it could be healthy to sit for hours by the pc and i try to use it as little as possible. when i overdo it, i always take a few days off, to compensate. i also very rarely spend time on the pc throughout the day, i use it mainly at night time, when mango is sleeping.

i write my two fruitarian blog (czech and english), and one photo blog (czech-english), i visit (at times with long breaks) and contribute the only one raw food forum vitarian.cz , i keep occasionally in touch with a few, some real, some cyber friends via email. i write occasional notes from my future book, i transfer my pictures from camera to the pc, and post some of them on my blog, i read very few blog, and at times i do some info research. that is all i do on my pc, and i feel like that is heaps and i am making sure i wont extend its use. i love to have free time to do other things as well.

i would not like to end up spending most of my precious time sitting by the pc, writing stories about my healthy lifestyle.

the sun is shining, raw fresh fruit very tasty and

life is beautiful



raw fresh fruit, healthy yummy living food arranged by ian (fruitopia)

yes, we got a house

this entry was written on the 18th of february 2010

yes, it all happened at once, just like a miracle, one could almost say that the house dropped on us straight from the heavens.

it all began about two months ago, when i came to the conclusion, that it was not going to be such an easy task to find any affordable accommodation. renting prices have risen up a lot in the last year, and house-sitting offers were scarce and not suitable for us, so i decided, and mango agreed, that we should apply with government public housing. shortly after, we took that action, and we filled up the required application, sent it off and soon after we received more forms to fill in, by a doctor and some by other organisations, and some more by us, and when it was all done we sent it off.

about two weeks ago, we rang the housing department and we were told that everything was ok, we had been placed on top of a priority waiting list and all we had to do was to wait. we also got advise from another organisation to ring housing on a regular basis, so we rang one week later, on tuesday, again, and to our big surprise we were told, that our application had not yet been processed, because they were still waiting for us to fill up and send back to them the additional forms. so we rang again to confirm that information, and when we got the same answer, we were off to the court house, from where all forms had originally been faxed and also sent by post, as they were able to show by evidence in their "sending off documents" book. so one man/clerk rang the housing and he was also told, that nothing had arrived in their hands, and that nothing could be done about it, and that we had to fill up and send the required papers once more. surely we were not very pleased about it, but we took action straight away, we got new forms from the court house and visited the doctor again and we also did our work filling up some forms and thankfully we had some copies of a few letters and so it was easier done the second time and we were faxing all the papers off via the court house again, already on the thursday. yes, this time we made copies of all the documents. after that mango got an idea to visit some other organisation, where we might be able to get some more information about our accommodation, they did not give us much hope, but they navigated us to another place to inquire. i lost enthusiasm to visit another place, but mango did not give up so easily, and he went there, while i was waiting in the car. and in that office, mango spoke to some nice man, and he knew about some place where they could possibly help us, and he even rang out there and made an appointment to see someone there in half an hour. so we went there and i also joined mango this time, and we ended up talking to a very nice lady, explained her our situation including the lost and just recently sent off again papers, and she got on the phone and computer, and then she gave us some papers to sign, and then she told us, that the recently faxed papers had gotten lost again, but we gave her with a smile the copies, and the lady faxed them again to the man at housing while she was with him on the phone, waiting for him to confirm that the papers had arrived, and when he did, very soon after she told us that she had an old two bedroom house for us, she gave us the keys and sent us to look at it, to see if it suited us.

the house is in mareeba, not far from her office, so thanks to our car we were there in a few minutes, and even though it was not the place of our dreams, we made the decision to move in, for the time till we get a better one, or possibly already the home we are dreaming of. the house is near by the river that we at times visit and swim in. it has a roomy veranda with a nice wooden floor, living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a big bathtub in the bathroom, and in the backyard under a roof joined to the house is the laundry, with a door to the big enough backyard with one big mango tree and one big tamarind tree, to give us some shady area as well. the toilet is separated, a few stairs down from kitchen. there is also a car port. so we made a decision to move in very quickly and easily and soon we were back talking to the nice lady, we told her that we would be happy to move in, despite that it was not fully suited to our needs and she said that this would be only temporary and will would eventually be offered something more suitable when it became available. so we went through all the paper work regarding moving into the house and we were told that we could move in on the following thursday, oh, only in one week, to our big surprise, we never thought we would be moving out from fruitopia to a new home so fast. we were very happy that our accommodation situation had been sorted out at least for some time.

despite that i had had peace of mind, most of the time, regarding our future accommodation, and i had believed that it all would be sorted out when the time was right, i was loosing faith, and would worry at times about it all, and such worry came to me just the night before we got the house. usually i can shake off my worries very easily, but not this time, and after a while, i decided that i would try to talk to god via a drawn ring with the alphabet, and a pendulum ring on a cotton string. this method was shown to me by one lovely girl, during my last czech republic visit, she is a friend of my mum, and my mum has been reading tarot cards for her for a few years now. i've met this girl a few times previously, and i knew she was talking to god this way, and on my last visit i asked her, if she would ask god, if mango is going to get his australian permanent visa. she did and god told us, that mango would get his visa and also we would get all we wished for. the truth is i believed that, but at times i just lost my faith. just as happened concerning our moving out from fruitopia. so i decided to try and ask god by this method myself. the truth is i had been trying to communicate with god this way a few times, but never with success and i usually gave up soon after trying, but not that night at fruitopia. i was trying for over one hour, and i did remember that the girl told me, that she also had to keep trying again and again, before she was able to succeed, so i kept trying, i just needed that night some answer and i was a bit more desperate than usual. after about two hours asking several questions about our next home, i felt suddenly very lonely and at a loss, and after a little break i said to god: ' oh, my god i feel so lost and worried, and i do not want any more answers regarding our accommodation, right now, i am feeling so lonely in this world, and you are so wise, and i just would like to talk with you a bit." and very soon the ring began moving in a different way to previously, and i knew, that was it, that it was working, and that god was talking to me and he said: "love, love, love prevails." those words of wisdom filled me with joy and peace of mind. i believed everything was going to be ok, my faith was back with me. i was amazed by gods wisdom. god knows me, and knows that love is for me the most important and of biggest value in my life and that love is directing my thoughts and my life journey, and the feeling of being lost, lonely and worried was gone, and i strongly sensed gods existence and the presence of gods love. i felt like a child, i turned off the light, and i was on my way to sleep, strengthened in my faith with a smile on my face, and before i fell asleep i didn't forget to say thankyou my god.

and i also said my joyful thanks to god, the next day, after the lovely lady offered us the house, our new home, - before i even saw the house i believed that it was going to be our next temporary home.

god is love
