Well who knows if this is a stupid trend with not much foundation to it...
but I still think that CELERY has more nutrition than eating chips and chocolate all day...
No matter what IDIOT says that there is no nutritional value in CELERY.
or what IDIOT would even make a simple comment about celery into a HUGE ARGUMENT.
just sayin...
check out the celery juice trend here.

Relationship stuff
Choose Love.
Even if its more for yourself than anyone else.
Choose love here.
Imagine if we all choose love and took 100% of the responsibility, instead of expecting it from others?
I like this lady, how she talks, very honestly, instead of the usual Hokey-dokey like coachy insincere things I have heard before....
She did a podcast on self - confidence that I posted a while back.

Verklempt
I saw Come from Away the other day.
Going into it, I knew what it was about.
How a small town of Gander, Nfld took in about 7000 passengers into their town of about 9000 ppl and gave them all shelter and food and shared their hospitality during such a horrific time in history.
I still remember exactly where I was when I heard about the towers being attacked.
It was my first year of working in my profession in a small town of Paris, ON and my 10:00am patient came in and sat down and said "so we are in for another war, they have attacked the states."
I thought he was joking because of the nonchalant way in which this patient said it. He told me it was on the news and it just happened not long ago.
After I was finished the appointment I went out to the common room of the Palliative care Hospital where some staff were gathering just in a daze of shock. There was a tv there with images of the burning towers.....
I was living alone in Brantford, and my close friends and family were in Toronto. All I could think of was calling everyone of them to make sure they were ok and tell them that I loved them. Of course they were ok but I just had the need to hear their voices. It was sooooo eerie driving back to Toronto Thursday night, like I always did, except the night sky was clear of any planes... not a single spot of one.
Right from the beginning of this play, even though it was mixed with the lightheartedness of the Nfld folk characters, I was getting pretty Verklempt. And my eyes welled up a few times, even though the scenes were predicable. Just to see it and imagine how it was back then for everyone.
The thought of the capacity of humanity to work together to comfort each other and care for each other regardless of religion, and nationality and communicating regardless of language differences and finding a common connection....
This capacity is there, in our nature, I'm in wonder why we don't just express this all the time to everyone, not just in times of tragedy and crisis.
Yep, this was me during most of that play....

Happy New Year!
Gez this life goes by too fast.
Blink and you may miss soooo much of it's beauty!
I have not been writing here much, some days because I just have too much to say, and other days because I have not much to say at all.
I'll start off by saying I wish everyone a wonderful amazing year and that I am soooooo thankful for those around me and thankful for all that I have been given.
Like I have always said, if I can just bottle up the present to keep everyone happy and loved and safe and healthy.
Anyways - nuff of that sappy stuff.....
On to the fact that I need to spend my time more wisely and productively this year....
(rather than watching all this stuff--->)
I have been watching all these "conspiracy" type of videos / documentaries about things that are happening, whether to do with our food, our health, our politics, our society - certain things that are proven or discovered that should open the doors to more investigation or to alert us into making this wonderful world we were given a much better place to live in .... but instead has been covered up in exchange for monetary reasons or securing power or to feed certain individual's greed or anything else unethical which then has dire consequences for everyone else.
I have seen a bit on aluminum foil, garlic, our salmon, what has been going on with our first nations, and I am currently watching UNACKNOWLEDGE on Netflix at the moment.
crazy stuff.
Begs the question. How can a human do these things to another human?
I can boil it down to the word: manipulation.
What a horrible, insidious thing humans are capable of.
And it apparently seems to be the theme of extraneous events on a personal level that I have seen and been through, in the last couple days and also a few yrs ago.
From my experience a few years ago, something that I would not wish on even my worst enemy, I came across a term that I will define, to finish off this post.
Gaslightling: (via Wiki..)
"a form of psychological manipulation that seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or members of a targeted group, making them question their own memory, perception, and sanity. Using persistent denial, misdirection, contraction, and lying, it attempts to destabilize the victim and legitimize the victim's belief. "
