Unlikely Combinations

We are all unlikely combinations of the world around us.  We take in and filter life according to what we have to work with.  Or what resonates with us.  Or the patterns that feel comfortable.  This way of filtering everything we see, hear, smell, touch, and sense becomes us.  It literally directs our genetic expression at the cellular level.  And each cell of ours is fighting to be heard.  Survival is the goal.  Each part of our being has a mind of its own in this respect.  Somehow they manage to exist synergistically to keep us surviving.  We are the container that our cells exist in.  What we do to our bodies, becomes who we are.  And, who we are affects the world around us as other people take in their experience of us.

So, keep it light and be the light.  'Cause I want to be light.

Unlikely Delicious Smoothie

3/4 cup organic frozen mixed berries
1 frozen banana
3 tablespoons raw shelled hemp seeds
1/2 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
1 heaping tablespoon plant based vanilla protein powder
1 tablespoon raw cacao nibs
1 1/2 cups homemade raw almond milk

Blend a super rad high speed blender.  (Doesn't have to be a Vita-Mix, but I'm just sayin'...)

Serves two in 16 oz pint glasses.  Or just drink both, I did.








"So hold nice and closeI want to get to your soulSo that when it is coldYou won't feel so alone'Cause the roads that you takeMay just crack and breakWith the changes you will confront
With each gift that you shareYou may heal and repairWith each choice you makeYou may help someone's dayMay your journey be longAnd now I wish you the best of luckWell I know you are strongMay your journey be longWell I know you are strongAnd now I wish you the best of luck."
