So I wrote a blog several moments ago titled “Cryptic.” It had several paragraphs that were full of nothing but sadness and despair…or at least a lot of nasty venting. The computer promptly dumped that blog and made me try another (apparently upbeat one). So here goes…

My kharma in this life is instant. Some people do or say or think bad things and never really know when they are being bitten back for those deeds. I nearly ALWAYS know when I’ve done wrong by the universe. A blog will get dumped, a toe stubbed, an elbow cracked against the side of a doorframe…an elaborate stumble in front of people (or not), a contact lens popping out or being lost…all of these acts generally happen right before, during or directly after a nasty thought, word or deed. Thankfully, I don’t run around with too much nastiness in my life, so the universe is typically giving gifts and love rather than punishments.

I think that this instant kharma that I’ve forever experienced is one of the reasons why the BTD fits so well into my life. There are instant repercussions for eating avoids and bennies. Different avoids cause different reactions to varying degrees of severity…just as some bennies are more bennie than others. For example, chicken and corn are two that throw my body into a mess. Chicken makes my joints ache and my boobs hurt (think PMS girls). Corn bloats my entire body and makes me feel sluggish and headachy. Bennies like cherries, blueberries, parsley, garlic, greens, sweet potatoes and tuna make my blood sing. There is a virtual symphony of amazing things that happen in my body after consuming these particular bennies (not all together of course!). I feel instantly brighter (smart and light!), happier, stronger, younger and more playful. I call them (esp. tuna steaks) my superfoods because if I’m dragging, a small portion of these will provide the best pick-me-up known to humanity.

I’ve got to cut this blog off abruptly here my dear BTD fellows. That last bad blog stole time from this one that I cannot spare (boo…). I have gotten your communications and LOVE THEM!! I will be responding this week (still trying to straighten out the schedule) to all of you either here in these pages or via personal e-mail. In the meantime, have a fantastic week, find your superfoods and enjoy! May YOUR blood sing too!

Until next time…be well…
