Paging Dr. Google. Paging Dr. Google.






From my writing circle...


We are quick to fix ourselves with google searches and suggestions from friends. Somewhere along the line, somewhere in our time, somewhere in our existence, we were taught to look for answers outside from ourselves.

For headaches, take aleve.
For bug bites, find some ointment.
For a broken heart, find some ice cream.
For a shitty day, grab a drink.
For a stubbed toe, take a tylenol.
For a rough morning get that coffee.

For a lonely night, get that booty call.

Way back before super modern medicine. Way back before google. Way back before our medicine cabinet.

Our hearts knew.
Our souls knew.
Our minds knew.

So the question is, did you try any natural remedies?

When was the last time we looked into ourselves to see what our body, yes, our body is telling us.

Listen to your heart beat. Hold your hand to your heart. I like to think that you are feeling the essence of God - everything that is beyond your control.

You.
Cannot.
Make.
Your.
Heart.
Beat.

Yet, every day. every hour. every minute. every second. your heart beats.

Wait for it, what is it telling you today?

Prescribe yourself a true and full dose of yourself.

Drink it in. Gulp it in.

Feel every single part of yourself.

Our souls bring us back to ourselves if we only listen.
