“Debe existir el gran secreto Que nos permita tal vez añadir Cien letras más al alfabeto Y tengo fe al predecir Que alguna vez habrá palabras Que expresaran lo que quiero decir Y habrá también una balada Que cantará la ilusión que hay en mí Y alguna vez tendremos alas Para volar, volar y volar Y al terminar cada jornada En una estrella poder descansar Alguna vez quizá podremos Bordar pañuelos con rayos de Sol y Alguna vez tendremos tiempo Para inventar nuevamente el amor Y alguna vez tendremos alas Para volar, volar y volar Y al terminar cada jornada En una estrella poder descansar Y al terminar cada jornada En una estrella poder descansar”

“No one meat for us to be miserable. We actually make "happy hormones" in our brains. These are designed to make us feel good. But there are many things that can turn off these hormones, just as there are many things that can turn them on. And the amount of happy hormones you make in the brain is directly related to the type of diet you ingest. The difficulty is that we are all different in our biochemistry, and hence, also unique in what foods make us the happiest. In other words, many people feel really mellow and content on a high carbohydrate (vegan or alkaline) diet. Many use this to optimize their athletic performance. While others are carnivores, not vegans, and feel best with meat (acid diet) at every meal. They get weak and lower their zip if they lower their meat content.”

“Looking back, I think the reason I kept chasing quick fixes was because, for the briefest moment, the slight reprieve they offered helped me forget how messed up and broken I was. In my heart of hearts, I felt like the slate of my life was so scribbled and dirty, with so many arrests and broken relationships, that it wasn’t even worth trying to clean up. Since I could not be cleansed, fixed, or cured, I simply learned to cope by covering the messy “whiteboard” of my life with pieces of white paper: a fling with a cute girl boosted my pride, an epic adventure with friends made me excited and confident; sports made me feel tough, while good grades and a nice job boosted my ego. While each distraction helped me to ignore the mess underneath, I never found anything that could erase it. So, I stacked up the distractions until they grew so numerous, they fluttered everywhere throughout the muddled chaos I called my life.”
