Creative Something: How to move towards creative work today
If you dream of being a full-time artist, or a musician, or getting paid to be a poet, or to make your living by writing a novel: there has never been a better time in the history to make that happen than now.
Harvard Education Specialist Tony Wagner touches on why in his New York Times piece,
Raw Food Vegan Diet!: The Mother of All Vinegar
Raw apple cider vinegar has long been touted for its health benefits and usefulness all around the house. While it can be used to clean soap scum and tough stains, it also does wonders inside your body.
Apple cider vinegar is full of potassium, calcium, acetic acid, malic acid, pectin, and…
This is so easy to do! And only takes a couple of minutes. And tastes way better than anything you can get from a store!
Raw Vegan Cheesecake
Ingredients:
Crust
- 2 cups almonds
- 1 cup dried Medjool dates
Filling
- 3 1/2 cups raw cashews -soaked for at least one hour
- 3/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 3/4 cup agave *
- 1 cup organic, unrefined coconut oil- liquefied (see below)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 vanilla bean or 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon celtic sea salt
Blackberry sauce
- Handful of fresh blackberries
- 4 large dried Medjool dates
- 2 hefty squirts agave
Directions:
To melt coconut oil, if solid:
Measure out 1 cup of solid coconut oil and place in shallow bowl of warm water. As it softens, stir. Replace the water in the shallow bowl with fresh warm water and repeat until all is melted. I needed to change the water about 4 times to make it reach a fully liquid state.
To make crust:
Blend almonds and dates in a food processor until finely chopped. Press mixture very compactly into the bottom of a spring-form pan. I used the bottom of a glass to press the crust down, and it worked perfectly.
To make filling:
Take all filling ingredients and blend in food processor until smooth. Just let it go for a few minutes…. the texture should be nice and creamy.
To assemble:
Pour filling on top of crust and spread out until smooth. Cover with foil and freeze overnight. The freezing process will re-harden the coconut oil and set up the cake. After it is frozen you can refrigerate and it will be ready to serve after about one hour. Even though you have to freeze this cake to set it up, it is not a frozen cake… once refrigerated, it takes on an extremely similar texture to a regular ol’ cheesecake.
We get energy and balance from not just from our food, breath, and sun, but from the earth energy or geo-electro-magnetic (aligns human charge to a more balanced state, whereas most people are electron deficiency due to insufficient contact with the earth’s electromagnetic field), the cosmic (aligns our higher subtle energetic field, including Tachyon Energy, energies that are all moving faster than the speed of light).

I feel a swelling of anger/ frustration in my heart. I’m angry at art because of how close minded the people who represent it act. I just watched a documentary on a photographer who lives in New York, he was completely self-absorbed and narrow minded because of his art school training. they trained him to talk like that about art. It was like someone disrespecting my mother, he spoke about art as if it’s a math equation.
To me art is real freedom, the real embodiment of God, a crystal clear display of our sub conscious and our freewill. It is human nature in a physical form. it is power, and like all power must be used for good.
I think that limiting art in any way is destructive. I think every factor is the choice of the artist, meant for their own unique reason or purpose, it may be to display randomness, or deliberateness or order or chaos or nothing or everything. To say a certain color, process or meaning is better than another doesn’t make sense, one persons interpretation stops there. Interpretations will be different through every set of eyes, the power is always the artists and it’s their choice if they want to share it.
life is art. i am the artist, i will do what i want with my piece. something is only wrong or right by MY definition.
i dont want to sit and stare and ponder about what might be wrong or what i need to adjust to make it perfect, im just going to keep painting, keep taping, keep molding over the mistakes. i MUST move forward with my work, or i feel im wasting time.
