To speak more concisely, with Courageous Compassion, always rooted in INTEGRITY...
I dissolve in order to question
Releasing fearlessness
I seal the output of intelligence
With the spectral tone of liberation
I am guided by my own power doubled

Hearing the question "what do You do?" enough has inspired me to finally create an answer that I feel from the heart. The answer, in short, reads as follows: I help people to realize the means by which they can truly love themselves and their loves. Yes, a healthy "liveit" (a borrowed term, admittedly) does help, but to learn to truly love one must reTHINK.

How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
I invite You to ask me questions! I encourage You to ask me about anything and everything! This is not about Me, it is about Us. Supporting Yourselves can only serve to support Me.
I shall rewrite what I had before, but in a clearer manner, rooted in INTEGRITY. For now, I invite You all to consider that We have the power to create never ending realms of possibility in Our lives. To speak more clearly, in one sense, I invite You to learn how to stop creating stories about life in which You have lost power, freedom, self-expression, etc. In invite You to consider that You ARE NEVER A VICTIM. To think otherwise is to sacrifice one's own joy, one's ability to enjoy love. Life is juicy! Loving life is juicy! To take full advantage of the juice, I encourage You to learn how to truly take responsibility for Yourself! What's more, I encourage You to consider that friendship only exists between two people who take responsibility for their lives, individually and collectively...
In flux!
Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
Green Smoothies and Delicious Salads! I also love creamy textures, so guacamole and chocolate mousse pie (for now, from "Arnold's Way") always excite me. Fresh juices and Goji Berries never fail as well!
Interests (outside of Raw Food):
Off the top of My head, DANCING!
Favorite Books or Authors:
Paulo Coehlo's "The Witch of Portabello" and "Brida"; Hermann Hesse's "The Glass Bead Game" and "Siddhartha"; "The Disappearance of the Universe"; "A Course in Miracles"; anything by PETER RAGNAR; various texts by Friedrich Nietzsche;
Favorite Quote:
"Love simply Is." "Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet." And, most clearly: “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

It's great to have a not so common connection with you - through J.C. Pearce. I enjoyed your bio a moment ago. I see you to have learned from Nietzsche. My second time around in academia I got an MA in English (Literary Theory). Somewhere at U. of Louisville is my thesis on Zen Buddhism and poet Gary Snyder. Anyway, thanks for reaching out. I look forward to sharing ideas and all things raw food. Smile on.
