♥ The elimination diet - remove anger, resentment, regret, guilt, blame, and worry. Then watch your life and health improve. Healthier diet don't you agree? I have been on that diet for years and this is my result. My idea for a healthy mind, heart, and soul. Bake the world a better place and serve up this dessert with a scoop of cold vanilla ice cream.

There are some things you cannot understand yet. It is good you work hard to resolve issues but understand that what you resolve will need to be resolved again. And again. And yet again. You will come to know things that can only be known with the wisdom of age and the grace of years. Most of those things will have to do with forgiveness.
Life becomes more meaningful when you realize the simple fact that you will never get the same moment twice. There's this possibility that everything that you have gone through can be used to make you gentler, kinder, more compassionate and loving with yourself and others. At any time, you have the power to begin again and to rebuild. Do something every day that reminds you of your wholeness and of your power to heal your life.
You do not have to apologize for being sad. You are being true to yourself by honoring your emotions. If it makes you happy, it does not have to make sense to others. Whatever it is, it deserves to be expressed and felt. You go on by doing the best you can. You go on by being loving. You go on by being true. You go on by offering comfort to others who can't go on. You go on allowing the unbearable days to pass and by allowing the pleasure in other days. Be human to the fullest.
Some things and some people are written in your soul with permanent ink. Inhale love. Exhale gratitude ♥
Perhaps why my goal is to always have a cup full of drips of #happiness.
I believe it is best to open your mouth only if what you are about to say is more beautiful than silence. For the longest time, my random snippets and potpourri of loose ends sat on the pages of exquisite #journals. It has only been recently, in the last year after my diagnosis, that I took to writing and sharing. All I have to say is I am grateful for people who lift me up, friends, family, and even random strangers.
Happiness is always a choice. Learn to let go. Forgive yourself for the mistakes you’ve made. Forgive others for the pain they’ve caused you. There’s virtue and strength in forgiveness. There’s freedom and beauty in fluidity.
Because when you relieve suffering in the world, you activate your goodness and make the world a better place. This is my idea of climate change.
Do good and it will come back to you in unexpected ways. It is as simple as practicing #gratitude. Gratitude is part of the importance of sharing. Say thank you every day. Through your gratitude, you remind yourself of how blessed you are. Through your gratitude, you make the world better. This world can be heartbreaking, so find time everyday to #celebrate the small moments in your fractional life. Relish in laughing insanely. Humor helps you take life less seriously. Humor also helps you take life more seriously. Laughter is the way we heal when we see the world in a new way. With laughter, you have a new perspective that allows you to love generously, often and so deeply.
All you have to do is this. Crush hard on strangers. Fall in love with moments. Smile at people you’ll never see again. Fall deeply in love all over again. Even when you get your heart broken, celebrate your pain and #vulnerability and openness and courage. Watch movies and cry; even have a steak the size of your face. Spend the day holding hands. Say I love you every day of your life. Cuddle like a bear hibernating. When in doubt, eat homemade #scones (even the gluten free version) with tea ♥
