"You are the sum total of everything you've ever seen, heard, eaten, smelled, been told, forgot - it's all there. Everything influences each of us, and because of that I try to make sure that my experiences are positive."
The above quote derives from the wisdom of the late Dr. Maya Angelou. Many things we experience undoubtedly makes us. Who we are today is due to what our experiences have entailed. This life is a journey full of experiences. How we entertain and react to all that surrounds us determines how the journey's experiences effect us.
We've too often heard the phrase pertaining to our eating habits which suggests "you are what you eat", however, not many will go on to inform you that we are what we consume. There are many ways to consume that many of us never give consideration to. Would you believe that you are what you eat, speak, think, watch, entertain, and believe? Believe it, it is truth.
Consumption is vast. The phrase "you are what you eat" suggests that what we put into our body, will serve as nourishment or harm to the body's system, and therefore, it is ideal to be mindful of what we eat. While we want our food to nourish our body, we should think of every other form of consumption in the exact same light. There are endless factors contribute to a healthy mind, body, spirit, and emotions.
