Non -Raw Visitor

A friend from homw is staying with me at the mo. He's not vegan, not raw, hates mushrooms (WTF)!!! and onions.....I have cooked him veggie meals and he haasn't complained once. When cooking I am not at all tempted by the smells that diffuse round the room as it all smells burned (although its not - my cooking skills are not that bad).

Have been zooming round Tokyo doing the touristy thing with my lunchbox and friend in tow. Strawberries, grapes, blueberries fill my bag. Going thru my fruitarian phase. I adore leafy greens, yet my body and mind just aren't wanting them at the mo.

My friend who I have known for 15 years still lives where we grew up. Goes out on a Fri and Sat to the same haunts (skeletons lurking). Some things stay put. I wish he would venture out more, beyond the security of the drinking buddies. He talks about his life and it is mirroring mine when I was in my 20s. Am I just an old fart!?!?!

I adore him and always will, yet he simply hasn't moved on. Admittedly, hats off to him for travelling to Japan to see me. Not he easiest country to navigate round.

Does he lack dreams, aspirations?
How do people get so stuck?
or am I living in a dream world and not facing reality???
