I met three squid once while snorkeling in Costa Rica. Thet were so cute and strange. They were lined up next to eachother and swam together. I thought of them as triplets. They were about a foot tall. They followed me around for about 15-20 minutes staring at me. It was awesome. I love them.

183. Pain Body
I think I am going through some type of detoxification. I feel my pain body right at the surface. It is a swirling through me. I feel old stagnant emotions and memories of traumas rising to the surface. It is on the edge of overwheming me. I know that I am strong enough to handle it, I just hope I can release these burdens, rather than burying them down again. They have a heavy, sticky qual

Peaches are delicious. I want a perfectly ripe juicy peach right now, but don't have one. I do have kiwis though and they are ripe. I am going to get one.

185. Re: maca
I love it. I take it in a smoothie every morning and find it emotionally balancing and energizing. After taking it regularly for a while I noticed that I don't get menstrual cramps any longer.

That is a great law and I would get behind it. I have never heard of a law like that being passed in the States. Smoking in cars is dangerous. Once I had a friend who smoked. I was sitting in the back of her car while she was driving. She threw her butt out the front window and it blew in again through the back window falling into the back of my pants. I started to smell something burning, wh

Thanks for posting that. I felt resistance watching it because it is so sad, but it is important and I am still hopeful. It is up to us to help heal the world and I am ready. There is not greater cause.

I honestly believe that this is true. When I tell this to others, they say often try and correct me, saying that all thoughts and all emotions originate from the brain. This is not completely true, because some emotions come from the gut, like when you are afraid (for example). Sometimes people in or culture are so connected to their brain, they appear to me as giant heads roaming around. When

You made some great points! You are right about mutual respect in family relationships and about being able to say no to a friend (otherwise they are not really a friend. I will remember that.

191. Kava
I have raw Kava, dried and powdered. I find it very pleasurable and relaxing to drink kava-cacao smoothies. I haven't experienced any negative side effects from it. I drank two kava drinks in the last couple of weeks. I read that it should be used in modereration because it can be taxing on the liver. How much is considered excessive (for a healthy person)?

I like it. I often eat make put it in with raw cacao, coconut, banana smoothies and date. I can't even taste it. Mabe the cacao covers the taste. I like it's effects, which are very energizing for me. I guess everyone needs to find the foods that suits them.

Thank you both. I don't usually think about it, because it is in the past and whats done is done. For the last few days I have been sponstaneously thinking about it for some reason. I have been feeling badly about it. I wanted to get it off my chest, but most people I know would just laugh. Thanks for listening and helping me to accept it. Congratulations David for having that moment of c

I felt the urge to post something that I am not very proud of. I used worked at a seafood restaurant during a summer while in college and I used to kill lobsters and clams. Looking back on my life I guess I was in a desperate time and I felt pretty lost. I was somehow able to justify it, by telling myself that someone else would be doing it, it was just for a summer and a family member got me

I use Dr. Bronner's castile soap for body, face and hands. It is made with very pure indredients (fair trade and organic oils). A little tiny bit also goes a long way. I love it. I stopped using products in my hair for the most part, but every once in a great while will use it to clean my scalp. I use sometimes use cold-pressed coconut oil or a little bit of olive oil as a moisturizer, but us

199. Re: Pools
I can't do it because I am sensitive to chlorine. I get a rash and bloodshot eyes. Maybe my adverse reaction is a good thing, because others probably react too, just in less noticable ways. I had to get a chlorine filter for my shower because even that affected my skin. I LOVE swimming, but would prefer the ocean, a lake, or pond any day. My friend converted their pool to salt water, instead

You may have already told them, but you should let them know that declawing is comparable to removing a person's fingers at the knuckle. A cat's claws are very important to them, whether they are indoor or outdoor (obviously more so for outdoor). Scratching gives them great pleasure, it is directly connected to the pleasure centers of thier brain. The owners should imagine going through life w

I read recently in a book called "The Cosmic Serpent" that there is a line of thought that thinks the DNA from even the most simple organism is far too complex to have come to being in the amount of time between the origin of our planet and the first speck of life on it. This made sense to me and this article confirms it a little more in my mind. It is a cool thought. We have alr

It is unbearably depressing. The sea is more astonishing and gorgeous than anything that could possibly be dreamed of by people. I think we all have to take responsibility for the destruction of the seas. I believe in my heart that our earth has amazing healing capacities, if we will only stop overloading her with waste and giving her time to rest and heal. I think this healing begins with peo

It is wonderful that a person can pick, choose and attract their own group of friends. Family is a little different sometimes. Don't get me wrong I am completely blessed to have wonderful siblings who are my best friends. A have some great family members and beautiful cousins. On the other hand sometimes at extended family gatherings (like a recent one) I end up feeling really drained. Some of

My cat Jasper is a very picky eater. She likes Purina One (dry) and Friskies(wet). This is what she ate since she was a kitten. I don't like to purchase these products, because I don't like the companies. I am pretty sure they test on animals and I am sure the quality of their isn't very good. I have tried switch her to healthier food, like organic raw and all different brands of organics.

Thanks. I just have to be more careful next time to have food with me. Maybe getting a little sick was a good thing because the memory of this reaction will help to keep me totally raw.

Yesterday I went to a family party. I usually bring food to these types of things or eat an advance. I didn't get a chance to this time. I was hungry and was going to wait until afterwards, but then decided to just eat a cold pasta salad. It was vegan but not raw. I have been 100% raw for a couple of moths now (and close to raw for along time before that). I decided it was no big deal to ea

Congratulations! I think that is great that you stopped drinking. I think people often drink alcohol to relieve some kind of inner boredom or restlessness. There is a great deal of alcoholism in my family and I drank a fair share of it growing up (especially as a teen). In retrospect I see a trend in my life: more raw food = less alcohol consumption. Raw food is great for the spirit and I since
