25 years ago I met the love of my life. She was the one I knew I had found again. She looked at the world with ambition and positivity. I looked at it with ambition and rage.
Twin flames.
We planned our wedding.
But, there was a problem.
I had no money for a ring.
I was in my first year of graduate school. I only made $1,000.00 a month teaching Organic Chemistry.
My biggest vice was Mountain Dew.
I though about it...My habit cost me $4 a day. Working 16 hour days, 7 days a week, the sticky, verdant goo was my fuel. But, if I quit for a year, I'd have the $1500 extra I needed for a ring.
I quit the soda.
Headaches. Dizziness. Fatigue. Itchy skin. My eyes were on fire. Unquenchable thirst. Shaky hands. Everything started to hurt in a matter of days...
If I could've mainlined Satans Syrup into my young veins, I would have. Twice.
No needles? No problem. I would have easily easily fallen to my hands and knees to lick it off the gym floor.
But, I needed a f@#ckin' diamond ring!
I started asking questions when my fevers started kicking in.
"What in the actual f#uck is going on!?"
Late one night at the college library, I dug for answers.
Mountain Dew is more than soda. It's more than sugar. It's a drug. It's designed to be.
All soda comes from a cauldron of cane sugar and chemicals cooked up in a soupy addictive mix designed to nourish addiction.
In the early days, 7-Up used lithium citrate. Coca-Cola used cocaine (despite their denial). Today, there are dozens of spiteful, evil, soul stealing chemicals that plunge deep into the pleasure centers of your brain to carve out a lifetime of dependence.
Fortunately, I was more in love with my girl than the corporate witches brew.
When I finally bought that ring, I knew it was going to be for life. That's because after I met her, I could always look back and remember the moment - not the details of where we met or what we were wearing, but how it made me feel. It was a moment in time, the only one, where I felt, OOOOHHHHH this is what I came here for!
That feeling carried me through the withdrawals...and when I finally had her diamond, I high-tailed it north from Arizona to Colorado to give it to her.
But then my serpentine belt broke on my Jeep...I rolled into an Auto Zone (true story), bought a new one, read my owners manual and put it in.
I was off!
Halfway there, I ran into a snowstorm.
State patrol was turning everyone back. The mountain pass was too slick and too deep in snow.
I pulled up cautiously to the road block and rolled my window down. As the Sherriff was giving me hotel recommendations, I concurred and told him I was gonna pull up a bit and turn around. He agreed.
I shifted into 4-Wheel drive, slammed the pedal down and swerved passed the blockade. The next two hours were slow and cautious. Nothing was getting in my may of delivering this f@#ckin ring.
And that's how it's been ever since.
Marriages aren't built on time, they're built on feelings. That's why sugar, meds, drugs alcohol and anything else that doesn't belong in our body disrupts relationships...the more chemicals the more broken the family.
And that's also why nothing is going to stop me from delivering the best medicine Mother Nature has to offer, 24/7.
For more than two decades, we've been living our lives with nothing but natural medicine. We've had four kids at home...none of them have been to a doctors office. We don't carry health insurance. And nobody has had a single jab.
When we celebrate our anniversary, we're also celebrating natural medicine and the joy it has brought our family and yours over the decades.
Cheers!
