Metamorphosis

An Evening With Victoria Boutenko

Rate this Entry


I had the most amazing experience tonight. My daughter and I sat in the living room of Tom and Suzanne (Raw Vegan Source) with 69 other people and listened to Victoria and Valya Boutenko talk for 3 1/2 hours. The time flew by. I would have listened for another 3 1/2 hours. They are knowledgable, funny, and inspirational. And that's just for starters. I was totally charmed by Victoria and her daughter Valya.

One of the things she said that stood out for me was an answer she gave in response to a couple of different questions. We have all heard this message before in one form or another. I really liked the way she said it. The answer was..."I'm going to let you answer that question for yourself."

I'll write more about the experience tomorrow, but it's too late tonight. Today was the first day of my Green Smoothie Fast. It was a good day.

    Thanks you all. It was all those things.

    ReneeH, that's GREAT!

    Jen, I like that picture and the word radiant, too. I guess if we feel radiant inside it really does show on the surface. Or maybe it was the interior lighting. ;)
