Day 13

I awoke this morning feeling hungry, light, and free! In an interesting paradox, being very hungry made me not want to snack on anything until my oatmeal was ready to eat. I wanted the full enjoyment of my crunchy-nut oatmeal on an empty stomach. I have to check something out, though -- I was out of almond extract so I added a splash of Disaronno liqueur as the oatmeal was cooking. I wonder if that has sugar in it?

In meditation today I smiled. Like the Bali man says in "Eat Pray Love," I smiled in my organs and all the cells of my body. I even curved up my lips and hands. I especially smiled in my pancreas. Maybe it will be inspired to try making insulin again. =)
