I needed this reminder today. I can do this. I can stick to my guns and my adopted lifestyle. Thanksgiving is tomorrow. I will be experiencing my first Thanksgiving without the usual fixings. Instead I will make a detox salad, stuffed acorn squash, mashed butternut squash, spicy pan seared Brussels sprouts, and a vegan mushroom… Continue reading My Yoke is Easy…
Okay... not the most attractive picture. It helps me make a point. The sea oyster, injured and irritated, places layers of its tear-like fluid called nacre over the damaging "grit" on its tongue. Slowly, over time (maybe even 5-6 years) this irritation, this hardship transforms into a breathtaking pearl! Poetic! The thing is... we all… Continue reading Warriors Look Good in Pearls
As mentioned last Tuesday in my Thought Tuesday Blog Adulting 101, I believe I have contributed to the growing problem of teens entering adulthood lacking basic skills.

Yesterday for #bethelight I decided to leave a big tip in a tip jar at Jamba Juice. This man saw me do it and was curious as to why I would do that. I explained that I had a goal to do something kind every day and that today was the day I chose to tip the… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 21
My life is still so fast paced that I haven't been adventurous with food. I haven't even taken pictures of what I am eating. I will do better this coming week. Again, I ate veggies or a smoothie for breakfast. Again, I had a salad or soup for lunch. I made Asparagus and Sunny Side up… Continue reading Menu Monday – Still Waiting for Variety
Yesterday I attempted to fill my heart with gratitude. It was my birthday. I usually dislike my birthday. It seems like a let down. So if I have a low expectation it's easy to meet said expectation. LOL. However, I went through the day working on my attitude of gratitude and the day went by… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 20
