I Said NO MEAT!!!!

I haven't posted on the blog in awhile, not because I haven't anything to write about but believe it or not work is actually been kinda busy. I rolled out to Vegas for a conference, and when I say conference I actually mean hit up the clubs/get crunked/hit on ho's/kill sliders and play beer pong. Which by the way is the sickest game I've seen in awhile, beer pong that is.

The reason I felt the need to post today was because I'm fed up with having to tell people that I can't eat meat for 9 days because of my religion. They just can't seem to wrap their head around the thought of not eating meat for 9 days for no reason! So I want all you wankster's to listen up as I explain this religious tradtion that my family and I have been practicing since the day I was born. Before I continue...yes sometimes it's a bit difficult and I do get the meat shakes about 6-7 days into the fasting, but it's all worth it in the end.

The religious holiday I'm talking about is called "Nava-ratri", and literally means "nine nights." This festival is observed twice a year, once in the beginning of summer and again at the onset of winter. I did some research on the significance of Navaratri online, because I knew if I asked my folks I would of had to slit my wrists and I didn't really want to do that because it would have been a real uphill battle trying to hold my rum&cokes. Moving along, I came across the perfect description;

"During Navaratri, we invoke the energy aspect of God in the form of the universal mother, commonly referred to as "Durga," which literally means the remover of miseries of life. She is also referred to as "Devi" (goddess) or "Shakti" (energy or power). It is this energy, which helps God to proceed with the work of creation, preservation and destruction. In other words, you can say that God is motionless, absolutely changeless, and the Divine Mother Durga, does everything. Truly speaking, our worship of Shakti re-confirms the scientific theory that energy is imperishable. It cannot be created or destroyed. It is always there."

Believe dat bitches! But seriously, it is because of the respect and devotion to the 'universal mother' as to why we choose not to eat meat for niiiooonnneee days. So for the last time stop asking me why I can't eat meat....pick up a book or read my blog and get a clue!!
