Daily Fruit + Play

Yesterday I ate:

9:00 . . . juice of 6 oranges
10:00 . . juice of 4 oranges
2:00 . . . 1 lb. red grapes
4:00 . . . 1 lb. kiwi
5:00 . . . 6 oranges + .5 lbs. organic grape tomatoes
6:00 . . . 1 lb. grape tomatoes + 8 pickling cukes + a few dates
7:00 . . . few more grape tomatoes + dates

Play: ballet, yoga

I am more busy than usual because I'm a yoga teacher and the beginning of the year is just like in the gym biz: everyone wants to start fresh! So I have some new eager clients. It's all good.

I am so aware of how people have so many problems: physical problems, mental problems, emotional problems. They don't see it and don't even want to believe it, but most of it is tied to what they are eating/drinking. I have compassion for everyone and their troubles, but it sure is frustrating to feel like I have the answer for them, but they are not ready for the answer. People would rather suffer terribly than give up their addictions and little "comforts." I do understand as I was there myself for many years. MANY years. That is why I have the patience for other people. . . I had to be patient with my own self.

Still, I have to balance the negative energies of other people with my own needs. I know you can all relate! Maybe it is time to write again the story of Stay Away From Humans. Ha, ha. ♥

  2. Hey Jules! I totaly understand your feeling that you have a gift to people who are not ready to recive it. But you are wise in knowing that all you can have is love and pacience for them. This is somthing that they neglect to give themsleves, which is why they contunie to hurt themselves with poor diet and lifestyle habbits. Thankfully you are not drawn in, and do onw have to absorb their negativity, as you are in control of what you are concious of, and what you are not! Pray for them, and release them. They are Gods buisness and their buisness, right? You must only "worry" about your buisness, and nothing more! Continue being the inspiration you are!

  4. Hi, Dianne. . . wow, we really do have a lot in common. Thank you for writing. Yes, at the beginning of discovering the whole "raw food" thing I ate some lettuce and celery and sunflower seeds because I thought I needed to. I have never liked nuts, though. Hope this answers your question. ♥

    Thank you very much, Alyssa! ♥

    Elizabeth, no problems, girlfriend! I sent you a note. ♥
