It's day four and for the moment I'm thinking that this has spurred a life change. Just last night I was explaining to a friend that I wasn't going to spend $100 or more on a juicer but today I've been researching and think it may be a wise investment. I'm thinking that I will definitely incorporate juicing into my week in some way. Maybe Saturday will be an all juice day and I think that there are plenty nights when I might choose to juice for dinner.
I owe a lot of this to my angel & niece Amber. She's on her first trip out of the country & for some reason I thought that I'd do a fast to support her. I am soooooo happy that I did it.

Opinion Vs Fact
It has become a daily occurrence now that I'm reading or having a conversation and left thinking of how people form opinions about the lives of celebrities or any other folk and seem to state those opinions as fact.
A few minutes ago I was checking in on Facebook and someone had posted an article about Paris Jackson (Michael's daughter) being admitted to the hospital for what is claimed to have been a suicide attempt. Reading the comments about how the family is responsible due to their raising of the girl and how they haven't learned anything since Michael passed away just amazes me.
I am about 99.9% sure that none of those commenting not only do not know any of the family, but have never even shaken hands or said hello to any of them as well. Why is it so easy to form opinions about those we don't know and turn those opinions in to fact? Wow. Yes, we all judge in some way and yes, we all have our opinions. That does NOT make them fact. We can guess at what's going on but unless we spend some time with that person and they share what's happening with us, that's all we can do, guess.
Our opinion is not everyone's fact!

The Limits of Control
"The best films are like dreams you're never really sure you've had." - my latest favorite movie line delivered by Tilda Swinton's character
The above quote seems like a good way to describe my feelings about Jim Jarmusch's"The Limits of Control."
I just came across this draft. Years later, I'm not sure where I was going with it & I might need to check out "The Limits of Control" again for a refresher.

The Liquid Fast
I'm on day 3 of my liquid fast and it's getting better. It looks as if day one was the worst. Not only was it the worst, it was TERRIBLE! I've done several other fasts before but I can now say that the liquid fast is the toughest for me. The original plan was 2 weeks but I'm not so sure.
Here's the Mamadoc diet:
Daytimes at work - Vega shakes mixed with Rice Drink, Spirulina tablets, water & green tea
Evenings at home - juiced veggies
Day One
Terrible terrible headache most of the day and until I finally caved and took some Aleve around 10pm
Day Two
Lots of energy throughout the day and what appeared to be a headache forming but never came to fruition.
