I recently read Leo Babauta's beautiful pieces on his two life principles: contentment and compassion. I love how simple and yet incredibly profound the articles are and I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.
Love you all and hope your day is going great!
Wow Lizzy, I really like where you are taking this blog. Those are two super awesome concepts for we as Americans especially to ponder. And I like how he mentions happiness as more of an up and down emotion rather than an even keel type of lifestyle. Very cool. Look forward to reading more of what you find! I have a really great magazine called Origin that you may like. It's got so many really cool articles about these types of topics Liz! Have a super content and compassionate day:)
ReplyDeleteHey Ms. Danger! I liked how he presented happiness as well. Everyone always says they want to be happy but I think that content is really what they mean. I'd love to check out that magazine sometime. :)
DeleteThis. Looks. So. Damn. Good.
ReplyDeleteI love this idea, but any tips on how to get your boyfriend to cook these dinners for you? Or any dinner actually? Or how about do anything? I know, I know, food is the way to a mans heart.
It was damn good! As far as boyfriend manipulation I am no expert. :)
DeleteHey Lizzie! I made a similar dish for dinner using leftover steak, onions, portobellas, and red, green and orange peppers for an Oriental pepper steak dish. Instead of soy I used liquid smoke, Worchester sauce and salt. Not exactly clean eating but no soy. made brown rice with tumeric and tuscan garden oil from Olivers for Dad. We both enjoyed. Still eating Greek yogurt and honey in coffee and tea! :-) and chocolate. Sigh!! But I had a paleo-breakfast!
ReplyDeleteA word on contentment: We live in a culture where "new and improved" and "bigger, better" or "the grass is greener" reign supreme; not being satisfied but always wanting more. Dad and I talk about this quite a bit. We all fall prey to this at one time or another and must diligently be on guard. Contentment is a choice whereever we are and wherever we are at. OXOXOX Mom
It is not about perfection mom, it is about moving in a healthy direction. Honestly I just want you to eat more healthy fats! Good point about contentment. We are sold that this product will make us happier, strong, beautiful, etc. but it is only in contentment with ourselves that we will see the ads for what they are.
