You can do this! and if you have gardening frustrations gardenweb.com and davesgarden.com are great places to check out. Have fun!

    Do you dehydrate the jicima or do you eat it raw?

    One more point for you to ponder...you alone are in control of what you take ownership of in relation as to how you see yourself. Case in point - a guy walks up to me and tells me I'm an ugly dog and should be kept chained up. I can choose to own his opinion of me, or I can choose not to. I think we do this a lot to ourselves when we say that we "could never" do x-y-z. Never allow anyone, including yourself to limit your life experience by taking ownership of a negative thought:)

    Besides...what we may have in mind for our goals, may not necessarily be what the higher powers have in store for us. They often have better, and what you learn and experience along the way serves to prepare you for that higher cause. Nothing is ever wasted - you learn and benefit from everything you experience, and it pays forward in time.

    Would you know me as I am had I not had the life I have these 41 years? Would I have the same depth and strength? Would I have the same abilities?

    Also - I love that you are looking at it as being the best you can be rather than winning being the focus:) I believe that this is what creates that fog environment - focusing too hard on the outcome, rather than really living in the moment and experiencing it for all that it is worth!

    Hey SuBu! This is a great post and definitely a step in the right direction Check out the Nia studio on Preston near Campbell Road http://www.movestudio.com/ This is a type of dance that will help you find and express the TRUE you! I have heard that it's a great type of therapy in addition to being a form of dance.

    What a great post. Raw food really helps people clear out all of that baggage we've been lugging around. My pastor says something quite profound and true. He said "we would be far less concerned about what other people think of us if we understood how seldom they actually do think about us." It's true. Next time get your groove on!!! ( :

    The beauty of blogging.... help when you need it, quiet prayers when you need it most. Dealing is healing ~ that's a great step to take. :)

    You are already making big strides! You should be very proud of yourself for all that you have accomplished - replacing food with healthy exercize, and recognizing that YOU have the POWER to CHOOSE! There was a post not too long ago by a gal who's husband said something so very profound - That raw life is our freedom, while cooked foods are our prisons...YOU have already come to this realization on your own!!! Now give yourself a big hug from ME!

    That's the beauty of raw - these things bubble up to the top, and you work through them. If not by yourself, with your friends. That's what we're here for, and blogging helps you get it out where you can really look at it, and finally let it go, so it doesn't hold you back anymore. You've been through some very traumatic times - and it is time to find compassion for yourself, and heal. Rawk ON!
