Buddhism, from what I have studied, is all about learning to separate yourself from worldly pleasures to become more one with God. And I highly respect Buddhists for their beliefs and goals in life. But, I love food way to much to be a Buddhist! I love life too much to be a Buddhist, even though it throws me curve balls all the time. And I enjoy learning from life and being apart of it. But Buddhism is more about learning to let go of life, almost the opposite of what I believe. And while I think it’s important to connect yourself with God, I personally don’t believe going about it in that manner. There are plenty of other faiths out there to look into that can bring you a more stress free life and peace with yourself. Just keep looking. No need to jump into anything.
