This time of year is almost like a test of how culture will affect you as it burns through you.  

I have to agree with you on this one.

Don't become such a nondual snob that you neglect cultivating quality human relationships, otherwise you will probably be sorry.

Very true.  Solitude is great, but it can turn you into a loner.  This is like being a hermit.  Or being someone that basically hides from people.  I’ve had stages of my life like this — so I can agree that this kind of life sucks.  It just kinda turns you into a weirdo.  Like there’s some neurotic things that happen to you.  And also, you get to become detached so much from culture that you basically become kinda lost.  So, a few relationships are wholesome and grounding.

@sgn don’t explain why you eat that way. If they don’t understand without an explanation well I doubt the explanation would be very helpful lol

People were more open than I expected actually  I didn't have to explain why. But they seemed interested in other things about it.
