I found somthing to get me through this raw foodie deal! Raw choccie cupcakes! They are so sweet and scrumptious :) Here's the recipe:
1 cup walnuts
5 dates, pitted
1/8 cup cocoa powder
1 tsp. coconut oil (I used canola as I don't have coconut, but if you do more power to ya)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. almond extract
1/4 tsp. salt
Process walnuts and dates in food processor until blended. Add the remaining ingredients and blend. Roll into small balls and place in cupcake holders, then enjoy! Yum-o

Relax

This is it, it's time for some fun!  Yesterday was my last day working and now it's just leasure time.. Well kind of.  I will have a full house with my three older brothers, sister-in-law, younger sister, bother parents, my mom's parents (who are Jamaican), and now four dogs, three cats and countless fish.  Here comes the bonfires, late nights and family catch up! I will miss out on some of the food of course still going with the raw foodie deal, but I'll cheat and snag a bite here and there. Shhh! Come on the holidays are here :)

Something new

Today is a day for changes to be made.  I'm starting a raw foods diet!  I'm going to get 80% of my daily calories from fruit, 10% from veggies and 10% from nuts and seeds.  This will be great and will make me feel so much closer to the Earth.  I've been a vegetarian for quite some time now, maybe a year and a half? But who's really counting. 7 of those months I was vegan so hopefully this transition won't be too immense; although I know it really will be!  Today was day 1.  It's great so far haha. It was also a day for exercise, oh it geels good.
That's me feeling closer to the Earth :)

Destroyer

Have you ever destroyed someone?  Have you ever been destroyed?
My answer is yes to both.  I've discovered that I'm really great at hurting people (unfortunately).  Only those who are close to me though..  Time after time I break people's feelings until they won't talk to me any more.  Why?  It's a method of protection.  If I push a guy away first then they don't get the chance to do it to me first. 
So... my recomendation?  DO NOT do this.  Let people in, LOVE while the chance is there.  LIVE while possible.  You never know who you'll fall in love with or who will fall in love with you if all those chances are denied.  Be a source of love and light and peace! I know that's what I'm working towards:)

Music :)

http://www.facebook.com/willalanboesl?sk=app_178091127385

You know when music is wonderful and special and beautiful becasue of the feeling you get when you hear it.  I just discoved a friend of mine's music page on facebook, and I got that feeling.  I know you know what I'm talking about.. you cannot stop smiling, your heart sort of feels lighter-like it's floating, it brings your world peace no matter what is occuring.  You have to listen to every piece of it and you absorb it like a dry sponge, or even a sham wow.  Hehe.  Well listen to Will, he's great and his music lifts me!

Here We Go...

Photo by me.

Vroom vroom. This is it, my first blog.  I just recently stumbled upon one persons blog (the first I've ever read) and it made me want one!  This will be me and it will be random and artsy and hopefully enjoyable - I know it will be for me whether I have readers or not.  So I'm moving along now! Ready. Set. Go!
