Poetry by Me!

When I’m feeling super happy, poems & songs float through my brain. It’s beautiful, I’m so grateful when it occurs. Here are some poems I managed to write down before they flew away:

 

OBSERVATIONS OF LIFE

our eyes our ears our senses, such blessings to have. we hurt them on a regular basis;

mindless TV, working constantly, harming our Earth, and scrutinizing supposed races,

explain this place, and what’s up with hate? nobody was ever meant to discriminate,

or be discriminated against. what’s up with the fence we build from within? our biggest sin

is division and separation from others, because no matter what they are our friends,

our cosmic brothers, mothers, sisters, fathers, our past incarnation lovers, killers, haters,

eventually we come together, by accepting one another. made from the same creators.

the division of races, religions, cultures, without expectance is the root of the matter;

& the fact that telling the truth and holding to much knowledge, makes one a mad hatter.

in this crazy world, caring too much about certain things and others perceive it as crazy.

being too nice, too smart, too high-minded makes some upset. yet it’s okay to be lazy.

we hardly understand our own brains, yet abstract ideas may make us “clinically insane.”

everything is whacky on this dimensional plane, the people at fault won’t take the blame.

I love knowledge, passion, the fine things in life, the blessing of my variety of senses;

at times it seems like what I love strangely comes with unexpected consequences.

however luckily its all changing fast, the new age, new era, is coming and sure to outlast.

healthy choices and thoughts, give up vices, share knowledge, don’t get stuck in the past.

each and every step counts, it’s amazing. ascend through evolution, it’s small and steady;

breathe with ease, go with the flow, it happens in the moments when one is truly ready

leave baggage behind, unwind, healthy mind. meditate and create a space you feel aligned.

to become redefined and redesigned, creating sustainable change starts on the inside.

CREATING SOUL MUSIC

..converting pure love into sonic frequencies..

..it is irrelevant what you think of me..

..open thy eyes, and expand thy mind..

..learn how to truly be compassionate & kind..

..evolve, then ascend to another dimension..

..every body can have a chance for ascension..

SUMMER AQUARIAN MOON

..staring into the fullness of the moon..

..feeling the urge to change the tune..

..it’s time to build another cocoon..

..& retreat back into deep solitude..

SAY NO TO DRUGS

“Hey kids, want to lose all control, destroy your heart & soul, turn into a troll, while watching your body decay at a much faster rate?

Heroin. Methamphetamine. Crack cocaine. It’s all the same to the brain.

Why bother to dwell in that lowly existential plane?”

These were poems I already had saved. I think of new ones each day, but I don’t always have time or access to writing instruments to save them. Publishing them helps me remember to keep them!

 

Thank you so much for reading, hope you enjoyed!

In my opinion, Making Food > Eating Food

I have a crazy obsession with making food. Cooking, baking, frying, sautéing, everything. I usually go out of my way to make raw food presentations look like they would fit nicely in a Bento Box. If I had all the ingredients on hand to attempt to make a face like the one pictured above, I totally would. In fact, that’s now a new goal for 2016.

The fact is, cooking is my main hobby. Eating is part of life. Therefore, cooking = life 😄

(Hey, if you have to do something, you might as well make it fun! Mary Poppins taught me that.)

Speaking of fun, I have learned that amazing presentation makes the food MUCH more enjoyable..

Even if it’s simple –like the creation pictured above– it’s so effective. See those 3 cranberries I added in the middle? I had those laying around and I thought it would compliment the green avocado and also create more definition between the eggs and toast so the shadows didn’t blend them together. I would have never thought to add those to my plate, but thought they went well with the meal as a refreshing palate cleanser and compliment to bring out the flavors of the food. It was also a great idea if you take nutrition into account; the iron from the eggs is better absorbed by the body when adding a food with vitamin C – which is definitely in the cranberries. Wow! The more you know~

When I think about it, I try to combine the right nutrients so that I get the most out of what I’m eating. Below are a couple of charts that help outline some good combinations for amazing food synergy:

Those charts are slightly redundant when put together, and they may seem overwhelming to anyone who doesn’t have a scientific-based mind, but the more I study charts like the ones pictured above, the more my body intuitively lets me know what combinations to eat for maximum nutrients. ALWAYS listen to your intuition!! Especially when its talking about anything that goes iNTO your body. Your body is very wise, each cell has the wisdom and experience to KNOW exactly what it wants. The only trick is learning this language and acting on it.

Recently, I learned how to make SUSHI and it has changed my life! I have had moments where I could call myself a sushi addict (true story), and it’s refreshing to be able to make these wonderful bundles of joy wrapped in seaweed! It saves a lot of money, and when dreaming up what to fill the rolls with, I am only limited by my imagination (and what is actually edible.)

Don’t they look like smiling happy faces? 😄

Well that’s basically the face I was making as I was rolling them~

.. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING..I LOVE EVERYONE.. ❤ ❤ ❤

The Birds & the Bees & the Trees

It amazes me that our species has found a cause for the massive collapse in the bee populations, yet we are doing little to fix it. People should realize these miraculous creatures do more than provide use with sacred honey, they pollinate many of our crops for food. They help pollinate the following delicious and nutritious produce: apples, oranges, lemons, limes, broccoli, onions, blueberries, cherries, cranberries, cucumbers, carrots, avocados, almonds, and cantaloupes.

The Environmental Protection Agency has found that pesticide use on crops (specifically Monsanto -manufactured ‘Roundup’ and other varieties) can be the main cause behind their population’s decrease in the millions over the past few years. That is MASSIVE, yet people are barely batting an eye. I wish it was recommended that everyone keep a hive if they have the yard space, to make up for the lost population. I’ve been researching what is required to do so, and it seems fairly easy.

I’m hoping and praying that the future will allow the bees to thrive again, and that humanity becomes increasingly more aware.
