One Flew Over the cuckoo nest...
Voluntarily playing the victim

One Flew Over the cuckoo nest
Enjoying controlling others

One Flew Over the cuckoo nest
Blaming a 15yr old for your bad behaviour

One Flew Over the cuckoo nest
Living in the bottle

One Flew Over the cuckoo nest
killing yourself

One Flew Over the cuckoo's nest
Letting the insane lead you...

When the RIGHTEOUS experience difficult times
they are NOT in TROUBLE;
they are going THROUGH a TRANSITION.
Its a TIME to put what's out of Order IN order.

THE COLOR GREEN...RANDOM THOUGHTS

Green is my favorite color ...it looks fabulous with brown, yellow, blue, red and orange... just to name a few colors. Green is one of those colors that seems to go on forever..it doesn't seem to repeat itself and when it does it seems to stand up as unique!

Check out nature, the trees, grass, certain fruits and vegetables that are the color green...The color seems to invites you in!

Hospital is not my favorite place to visit. The colors are somber, unimaginative and uninviting...therefore, I try to stay away from hospital. I wonder what would happen if hospital added a vibrant shade of a green in every room and a vegetable garden on its premises.

Maybe that's why friends and family of the one in hospital bring flowers with lush green leaves.

What's That Odor?!

I can remember as a youth growing up, being addressed on a regular basis,

with "Oh you must think your sh*t don't stink". There were a multitude of reasons for the question/statement/insinuation...

1. I walked around in my own little world, therefore, it was common for me to walk right pass people as if they were apart of the air...


2. As a member of my family clan, it was mandatory that each member (especially youths) excel at something, read everything and communicate with authority


3. I was very particular about a lot of things including what I consumed...

Little did I know that like so many other public opinions that remark had less to do with me than those that were making it. Our feces, isn't suppose to stink. Our breath is not suppose have a bad odor. Body odor should have an earthy pheromone scent to it. Maybe, that is why many are drawn to scents such as musk, white sage and pheromone these and other odors make us feel good, make us want to snuggle up close and just drink in the person's aroma.

On the other hand, how many of US have entered a bathroom after a user and wanted to throw up, because of the foul and putrid order that was left behind...all too often WE begin to think of this order along with bad breath and body odor as normal and therefore we spend thousands of dollars buying products to disguise the offensive odors. Oh by the way, that offensive odor is in part coming from foods in your digestive system that have NOT digested...You know foods like over-processed fake foods, white sugars and starches and hormones induced meats.

Save yourself some money not to mention chemical induced headaches..and begin to drink lots of water, eat raw(colorful salads) at least once a day and roughage type fruits.

So that the next time someone say to you, "You think your sh*t don't stink", you can remarked right back.."I know my stuff is tight...You want to take a whiff.

As a Baby Boomer, I can remember lots of summer outdoors activities minus air conditioners. Today when I talk to baby boomers (and others), about summer activities, the conversation usually starts off with "it's too hot", ....and... ends with "I'm going back to my air condition home". In these days of 90-100 degrees and humidity of 50% and higher, modern Americans have become prisoners to air conditions...which means breathing artificial air, less outdoor activities such as walking around the track, or just sitting on the porch....if the activity is not in an air condition environment most Americans are just not interested!

My concern is how "it's too hot" thinking can lead to weight gain, swollen ankles and/or a increase blood pressure. Therefore I submit...fight back! Try...

• drinking at least a liter of quality water first thing in the morning, before eating anything and while the temperature is still cool...(around 6-6:30A.M.)


• eat water-rich foods...such as watermelon, citrus, beets and spinach


• swim


• open the windows and dehumidify the air. I actually water-spritz the air throughout my house/ car. A very sensuous and exhilarating feeling to have the intermingling of water and hot air!
• close mini blinds during the time when the sun is highest in the sky around 12-4P.M.
• Above all, tune out negative HOT talk on the t.v., computer and radio! Opt out for cool jazz, snow-cap mountains movies. THINK COOL


• Reduce intake of salt, sugar and meats.

Now get out their and show hot and humid weather who is boss (LOL)

SOUL Food

In a world that seems complicated at the very least and conspiratory at the other end of that thought spectrum...I am reminded to keep it simple...and the BEST way to do that is to eat that which will feed my soul.

I pinned, this poem while I waited for Mr.Wonderful(at that time) ...He was taking me to breakfast; while waiting for him to arrive at my door, I became anxious....determine to relax, reflect, and let go... I focused on what I truly desired. Peace.


SOULFOOD

Serve me up, pile the portions high.

My taste buds are salivating with anticipation...
I am mentally choosing from the choices.
Serve me up! ...Pile my portions high.
Don't skip on that which is richest

Do be generous,
for everything looks so delicious.
Forgive me if I appear greedy
but for soulfood I am needy

My soul craves respect, seems it satisfies my self-esteem
My soul nourishes on Truth it quenches my thirst..it must come first..
My soul hungers for love that energizes without compromises..
So pardon my lack of delicacy; but this is a 411 emergency!
Forget the hamhocks and sweet potaote pie
Instead, make mine soulfood delight
Serve me up and be sure, to pile my portions high

HEALTH CARE REFORM Part 3

Our bodies are our temples that function from the inside out. Our body systems (all nine) collaborate, integrate and synchronize based on the individual needs of each part. The smooth internal functionality depends on whether or not, we view our- selves as spirits having a human experience or just human beings having a spiritual experience. For Example, when rising first thing in the mornings do we bathe our blood , organs, muscles and cells with a minimum of 16 ounces of water? Do we ensue a healthy glow by exercising our hearts, lungs and brain, before putting on cologne, make-up and fancy clothes? Those lips that we love to cover with lipstick, chap stick and oh yes, lots and lots of meaningful kisses; but before that, do we partake of fruits, grains, nuts and vegetables? Do we remember to supplement with organic apple cider, vitamin C and flax seed oil,...?





Health Care ReForm is the BEST thing that could have happen to us as a country because it has awaken enlighten minds to a higher health consciousness and accountability. Whether WE are for or against the particulars of the proposed preliminary health bill, We (working effectively)have to OWN up to how well WE are managing OUR own essential health. To the uninitiated, it looks like CARE when those of US pontificate throughout the media, organize marches of opposition and scream insults at and about this current administration. However, how we truly feel about this issue will be written on our face, gait and/or checkbooks.

Remember: When pointing a finger three are pointing right back and that thumb looks like it is accusing the most high.
