Mangoes are the most beautiful, delicious, fragrant fruit on earth! Don't tell me otherwise! :-)

Today's Affirmation.
---written saturday (yesterday)--
As I was riding my bike today, words came to my mind and out as a song.
"Drink Water by the River.
Eat Fruit by It's Tree.
Nothing is Greater
than the Spirit in Me."
At the time, I was stopping in the park alongside the river to sit on my favorite r… Continue

Current Daily Routine
I've been starting my day with this:
It's usually a mix of kale, spinach, arugula, chard, celery, apple, spirulina, agave and kiwi or peach.
It's a great way to get my greens in the morning.
Then my lunch has been this:

THE BEST SALAD EVER!
I am currently eating lunch.
My salad is kale, arugula, chard, spinach and cilantro for the green part.
It also includes celery, red onion, daikon, radish sprouts, carrots, tomatoes, garlic and dulse flakes.
I think the cilantro is what makes this salad so awesome!
I did spray a little liquid aminos on the salad. Eventually, I hope to use no aminos and hope to tolerate the flavor of the vegetables without it. Kale is just so bitter and my taste buds need to adjust. I'm thinking I could soak n… Continue

Profile Information
- About Me:
- I call myself idarastar.
Idara means Happiness and it is my given middle name. It comes from the Ibibio people of Akwa Ibom State of Nigeria.
Star is there because I love stars and I feel I reflect the light of the sun, the energy out there that keeps it all moving and makes things the way they are.
Some may call it GOD, JAH, MA'AT, ALLAH, KRISHNA, SUPREME LIGHT, YAHWEH, GREAT SPIRIT, ABBA, ALPHA&OMEGA. Whatever you name it, I feel it.
It's the same light force that illuminates my soul. The same force that makes the oceans move, roses bloom, mountains crumble, bumble bees buzz.
Once you realize yourself and the fire the burns inside you, use this to ignite the torch of another. Keep the flame going.
I love to live and live to love. I just don't like to work for a living, I'd rather just live. I know I'm not alone in that thought!
I'm currently in school taking core classes but I would love to get my bachelors then head out to an area where I can take naturopathic classes for my masters (arizona or oregon are my current thoughts...) and teach about optimal health and healing through the use of nature's gifts and knowledge of your self as natural health advisor.
I try to go to live music events once a week and dance until feel every muscle.. :-) Dancing on raw energy is AMAZING!
My interests in a living foods lifestyle began with vegan commitment along with my self-exploration of Ayurveda that I discovered about 3 years ago.
I've geared my life towards a 100% diet. I'm currently at a 90%+ range.
My goals are to stay away from the illnesses that have plagued my family for years (high blood pressure, diabetes and almost ever cancer you can think of ).
Please leave me comments on my blog/pictures. They are much appreciated! :-)

Very, very cool
I like the part of the article that says, "Ideas relating to the 21st of December 2012 have been circulating like a powerful cheese fart." lol
Hi. I have nothing against therapists and many of my friends have had alot of success with them. Me personally though, not really.
I have seen two in my life, first at age 14 when my father lost his fight with Luekemia and then again last year whe...
Hi Elise,
I take it that the high price is gladly refunded if it "doesn't take".
Baby, this answer rocks. I understand it completely. I did quite a lot of pills over a 2 year period in my 20s and got to experience all of what you described in your 1st paragraph. When I keep my raw diet pure and stay away from nuts, I feel the ...
Congrats, bro.
A friend of mine has had issues with her parents since childhood, she tried everything including numerous counseling sessions, hypnosis etc etc. She then did a two day intensive program called ‘the breakthrough experience’ and now she’s a changed ...
I think most people want to do this because they need attention, not because it really turns them on... maybe different for the people watching? personally don't want any more secreted bodily fluids to avoid in the city.. isn't there enough piss e...
yes she is :)
wow THANK YOU!!!!
Full disclosure - I work as a therapist.
Yes, it helps.
But you should know that the value of it can't be described by the speed of the healing process or whether you're looking or seeming perfect. Therapy is about coming to terms and coming back...
I always used to get sick on foods from restaurants, but the same meal I prepared at home wouldn't make me sick.... restaurants tend to drown foods in butter and oils, you've probably been eating less of those since going on those diet.
No problem at all. We're all here to support each other in our journeys. :D
with a manual camera I used a slow shutter speed (1/5) and kept my head moving side to side. i used Photoshop to get the contrast and color look.
thanks -- it makes me really enjoy being sick!
respect,yb.
Finally reconciled with my mother two years before she split the scene at the age of 95. Load off my mind.
She was tough, tough, tough, tough.
Jewish mother nagging shit, non-fucking-stop. Always fresh to her, always Hell to me.
Ha-Ha-Ha! Yah, womyn!! Glad ya said somethin
