We were created in the image of God. We were created out of love, for love and to love. That is the whole purpose of mankind.

To find the universal elements enough;
to find the air and the water exhilarating;
to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter;
to be thrilled by the stars at night:
to be elated over a bird's nest or a wildflower in spring ...
these are some of the rewards of the simple life.
~ John Burroughs, Naturalist

" Grains, fruits, nuts, and vegetables constitute the diet chosen for us by our Creator. These  foods, prepared in as simple and natural a manner as possible, are the most healthful and nourishing. They impart a strength, a power of endurance, and a vigor of intellect that are not afforded by a more complex and stimulating diet.

E. G. White, The Ministry of Healting, p.296
