#bethelight – Day 104

Today I am going to brag about how others spread the light today. To be honest... I have no idea if I did something kind today.  I did help at school.  I did run a rehearsal.  I did try to smile all day.  I did try to listen with real intent to everyone who needed… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 104

#bethelight – Day 103

Today is full of great intentions.  Sometimes intentions are where kindness begins. Today I intend on finding people to serve.  I really don't have any bright ideas.  I am just looking to make someone else's life a little better.

Eating Well

I love when I succeed in eating well… now… to get my body to recognize I am feeding it good fuel!

wboyack's avatarResigning as the General Manager of the Universe

It’s been a great week for eating!  I feel successful, especially with how busy my life has been.  I really should resign as the general manager of the universe.  LOL.

I’ve been beginning every day with 32 oz warm water, 2 Tbs apple Cider Vinegar, a dash of pink salt, and 2 Tbs lemon juice 30 minutes before eating anything else.  I also take 1 capsule of black seed oil at the same time.

Breakfasts were nearly all the same… Sautes onions, mushrooms, and spinach and a smoothie made from 1/2 a banana, 1/2 c kefir, 2 Tbs sugar-free peanut butter, 1 in ginger root, 1 tsp dandelion root powder, and 1 c assorted berries.

Agency is a priceless, sacred, eternal gift.  Agency is the power to think, to choose, and to act for ourselves. Agency presents endless possibilities and opportunities.  Attached to these possibilities and opportunities is… Continue reading Blessing or Burden

#bethelight – Day 102

I've been thinking.  Sometimes I shy away from people when I know they’re having a rough time. I guess I assume I should wait for them to approach me.  I don't want to intrude... I am a private person and I really don't like telling people about all the things happening in my life... at… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 102
