Well, maybe I am impatient, but it’s been 3 whole hours and nobody has posted anything.
So no one has learned any thing?! ;)
One thing, simple thing, that i’ve learned is that there is always a raw substitute to what you are craving… Plus, regular food is just not worth it! Raw food tastes so much better to me!
I have learned that all of the times when I was little, when adults said, “you can be ANYTHING you want to be. You can do ANYTHING you want to do. ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE,” it is TRUE. Growing up, I never believed this to be true. Looking at all of the adults around me, sagging, depressed, alcoholics, obese…I thought, “how is this true…” But I now truly believe that I CAN DO ANYTHING. I have learned that I am a powerful being. Maybe physically ONE being in ONE body, but a HUGE SPIRIT. And that is a great lesson!!! I carry it with me everyday!
I have learned that education is priceless, however I don’t blindly take the opinion of others or conviction of others as fact. I learn by exposing myself to all kinds of information, sifting it,processing it, and trying it out for myself, then making a connection to what I did know (or thought I did) to arrive at an “informed” conclusion.
I have learned that what is a huge issue today I will look back on a year from now and say, why did that upset me so, it was really no big deal? I try to remind myself of that fact anytime “the small stuff” feels too big.
I have learned that treating everyone I come across with respect and kindness is more important than rushing around with my head down and my thoughts frenzied.
I have learned that I am personally responsible for my own happiness and life does not owe me a thing. If I want to change something, I have to do it because it will not happen spontaneously.
I have learned that helping people is the most rewarding job I could ever have envisioned and money is just a means to an end, not a necessity.
We are all fibers of the same blanket. Compassion for yourself leads you to compassion for others. Release your fear and embrace what you want to do. Love yourself – take care of you – and you will feel free! Run, laugh, rest, live raw, and be free!
