I thought I’d start out by explaining why I stopped posting on this blog in the first place. The story goes a little something like this. Read more »

After going on hiatus from this blog for nearly a year, I’ve decided to start posting here again. I took off because posting here was starting to become a chore for me. I felt stuck when it came to thinking up new topics and I wasn’t sure about what I had to contribute anymore, but slowly during the time I took off things started to change. I’ve slowly evolved. My feelings about health and personal development have changed a bit too. I have a more clearly defined idea about what I want to do with this blog now.

There will be some changes around here. Not many, but there will be a few. I’ll be putting up a post once a week and posting a link love post every Friday. It will be good.

When I woke up this morning it was the most miserable day ever. The wind was howling, rain was pouring down and the sky was dark. “What a miserable day,” I thought, “I won’t be walking to the grocery store today.” Normally, I walk to the store and I have a few things to pick up for dinner tonight. A few minutes ago, I noticed the sun shining on me as I sat at my desk.  When I looked out the window the sun was shining and the sky was perfectly clean and blue. It looks like I will be walking to the store after all. Read more »

Just a short post today about something I was thinking about after a trip to the post office. Read more »

I’ve mentioned on this blog that I soak my grains before eat them. I thought I’d write about why I soak them and how I soak them. Read more »

I was reading a blog post the other night about the habits of healthy people and one of the habits really stood out to me. It could be applied to most everything not just health. The quote was “healthy people talk themselves into doing, being, living a certain way. Unhealthy people talk themselves out of it.” Read more »
