Day 13: Unlucky Karma

Today I woke up with the drunk/high feeling again. Although it wasn't as intense as day 4 and 5, I also felt quite a bit of inflammation upon waking. I'm sure I'm not attractive when I whimper in bed, but that's how the day began. Luckily, the SWF sped along the elimination process and I am feeling better already.

Last night we added 1tsp each of bentonite clay and psyllium husks to the evening lemonade. I didn't take the laxative tea because I wasn't sure what effect the bentonite/psyllium lemon shake was going to have on my bowels. The drink was pleasant on the tongue and easy to finish quickly. When I woke up this morning I felt heavier in my bowels and have been passing a lot more solid type material today. The SWF has taken much longer today after the clay and husks. Perhaps this addition is best done over the weekend when I don't have to be somewhere the next morning.

Emotionally I'm feeling a lot better. I'm letting go, happily. Acceptance.

Life is short. There are no guarantees, not for any of us. At any moment, our lives may end. Some suffer, some are happy. Some struggle, and some are well. We are all living karma and sometimes that is so hard to accept. But life, as it is, is beautiful; every moment of it. Our only real job is to give love. Shine. Shimmer. Be a light in the darkness so others can find their way home. Only then are we truly free.

How blessed to have had a living example to follow. May I follow in the footsteps of my blessed guru, Beth. May I wear her like a jewel in my crown to remind me what humble, serene, giving, gratitude, and kindness look like. May she find her way back quickly and may her friends and family find comfort and peace.
