Thinking back....

Yes, be in the present moment. However, to realize the profoundness of this moment, think of all the preceding moments which led to this one. What was that one door that opened, to which you probably owe most of how your life is now?

I am in a contemplative mood, having just finished my second Associate Producer gig, and having been told by the director that she'd like to work with me on her next feature. I also have another possible project in the works from another wonderful person I worked with on my last project. Add to that my nonprofit to "green" film and TV production, and what we have here is the culmination of many fortunate happenings sprouting directly from a few key decisions and chance happenings sprinkled over the last 10 years or so.

There are certain life-changing decisions we make, and we are very aware that we are doing so. And yet, something so simple as a random decision to, for example, go somewhere for a day or two with friends, can have a bigger impact than even the most well-thought out plans.

Anyway, I'm heading to SF Monday, so I better get some rest.

When I get back, I need to find work that will really pay the rent. Pronto! How's that for life-changing?

Peace.

Cleanse/Detox day 7

OK, so I dropped the ball. So sue me! Yesterday was Day 7, and I'm generally feeling pretty good, save for the little upper respiratory bug I've contracted. The juice only thing didn't work out so well: the hunger was too much for me. I've been eating SUPER healthy, though, when I do eat, and been a lot more aware of my portions. Those were really my main goals. Right now I'm focusing more on a detoxifying diet, meaning implementation of only detoxifying foods.

It's been a very informative process, especially dealing with cravings for certain foods (specifically fried or fattening ones!). I've had a couple other cleanses recommended to me which I'll look into. The best lesson of all, really, is how to consume a healthy, non-toxic diet every day, and that's most important.
