Protein Packed Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Oatmeal raisin cookies have always been one of my favorites. The funny thing is that before I knew much about healthy eating I thought they were a healthy treat. Raisins = healthy, right?

The Guru
The one who makes you laugh until your stomach hurts and you snort like a pig is your guru.
The one who brings tears to your eyes, the one who makes you weep your secrets out, is your guru.
The one who challenges you, triggers old pain in you, makes you face your deepest fears and longings, helps you tell the truth, is your guru.
Every breath is your guru. Every beat of the heart. Every sound. The morning breeze caressing your cheek is your guru.
The car that won’t stop, the missed opportunity, the broken promise, the shattered glass, these are all your gurus.
The ones you love, the ones who frustrate you like anything, the ones who bore you to tears, the ones you don’t want to remember, they are your gurus too.
This entire life, so fleeting, so present, so rich with blessings, is your guru.
You can go seek your guru in an ashram in India, but the true ashram is where you stand.
You can go find your authority in a cave on a mountaintop, but, friend, if you look deeply into the present, you will find you are already there. Presence is closer than the next breath.
The Kingdom is spread out over the earth, waiting for open eyes.
(Jeff Foster)
