Miranda Cosgrove's Latest Instagram: Why The Energy We Project Speaks Volumes

Today I decided to visit Juice It Up, a popular wellness bar on the Cal State Northridge campus. A lot of Northridge Matadors like to go there, and when you're in the market for wheatgrass, they are literally the "go-to" place.

While ordering my own 2-ounce shot, I made an intriguing new friend, 19-year-old anthropology student, Carolina. I ask Carolina what she's ordering, and she tells me about the "Mango Madness" smoothie. She asks me what I'm having, and I answer that I'm having a wheatgrass shot.

I "point" her over to the wheatgrass, and Carolina is astonished, "It's just grass?!" she exclaims. And I'm basically like, "Yeah...it's good for us; way to be!" But Carolina doesn't seem impressed, "I have friends who like to work-out and drink green juice, but it tastes weird and it doesn't do anything for me!" With that, she hits the nail on the head once more, "I just don't see the point if I don't enjoy it!"

Look at that sentence once more, "I don't see the point of eating/drinking it, if I don't enjoy it!" True enough, but then what does that say about why we eat or drink healthy?! It basically says that we're doing these healthy things, but for the wrong reasons!

My advice to a lot of young people, because I'm still relatively young at 35, is that you detach yourself from imagery and learn to focus on data. I.e., I don't care what my body looks like because I'm permanently disabled anyway, but I currently weigh 190 pounds and that is far too heavy for my body type.

I'm attracted to Miranda Cosgrove, but I could care less what she looks like, as long as she's not harnessing the "right" energy. And I'm not impressed if Miranda eats kale and drinks green juice, just to maintain her pretty face and olive skin. But what would be impressive is her drinking wheatgrass and meditating in order to become more Zen.

Take a little wisdom from the wood: What you speak/feel is what you become. When you're a teenager or you're in your '20s, it's not hard to live in communion with the world around you, because you're young. This becomes difficult with age/experience, however, and the real world doesn't care what you look like!

Women, both young and old, are smart in that they know how to look good with the right hair and make-up. But I've said it once and I'll say it again: "Stuff" feels different as we get older, and when it does, you'll start to care a bunch more about your body's chemistry!
