Your World, Your Life: Squuueeeeeeeze


"First you begin with a mesh shaver to transform the carrots into pulp. Next, you take all the oranges you can and begin squeezing the shit out of them, producing as much liquid as possible. Next, we blend, blend, blend the components to make a orange-carrot melody. If you want, add a pinch of sugar and begin filling your glass."

As of recent events, I have realized that I need to take out the needed time for myself. It is time for me to say goodbye to my childhood woes, lose my stomach and get back into the shape that I tend to only dream about nowadays. But amidst my current thoughts, I have decided to allow myself one meal a week without worries. A plate full of rice, beans, meat and avocados accompanied by a glass of freshly squeezed juice.

If somewhere along your journey, life decides to give you carrots and oranges in lieu of lemons, then I dare you to be different and try something new today. Try to figure out how you can attain something you want. I dare you to go after that thing that you have desired for days, months and possibly, years. I dare you to take those oranges and begin squeezing the shit out of them. I tell you, squeeze everything out of life that you can and enjoy it while it lasts. Buen provecho mis amigos.

P.S. But remember, there will always be haters and individuals defying you in life. Just squeeze some lemon juice into their eyes.
