Tag: The Smoothie King Center

It seems like I just used the word heart in a post title, but it makes a second appearance. You’ll know why in the next several paragraphs or so. You’ll also notice the pic below is of the “Smoothie King Center” in NOLA where UW was inducted into the WWEHOF. Years ago, I used a photo of an actual Smoothie King shop and now 1 town away has a brand new location which I mentioned a little while back. Remember me saying how I would update when finally getting a smoothie there? Well, my son recently did and then my husband and I went. We ordered for our girl too. This is not just because of the name as to why I write about it today. Nope, as there were or are a few other connectors. I seriously have to stop my face from reacting sometimes. 😯 2️⃣ smoothie drinks are: “Daily Warrior” and “ The Hulk.” I kid you not… I had seen some Warrior drinks in other shops, including a ☕️ coffee place, but never alongside Hulk.

The “ Daily Warrior” is a green one as I do those on occasion. “The Hulk” was a blueberry mix and hard to believe that one was not green like the old TV show! 😂 No, I did not get either. Maybe one of these days when I go alone, I’ll get my “Daily Warrior” but then again, I don’t need a smoothie for that! I just thought it was too funny seeing both of their names on the menu as I finally made my way into a Smoothie King shop. No huge NOLA venue as I was at another Smoothie King along with not only Warrior but Hulk, so cool. Wait, Hulk was there 11 years ago in the audience front and center, ha ha!

Let’s get into my title, now warriors. I have 2 quotes to share today. That seems to be the go to lately without a 3 count. The first one was part of this Oracle card deck I own and absolutely love. “The Luminous Warrior Journey” talks a little about some cards as that post is also STILL widely read, thank you… So, I wanted to start off the month with a 7 day spread from that Shaman Deck. Again, if most of you don’t practice this~~~ I understand but just keep with me here. The one card I drew was : “ Many Paths.” I love it as in our own lives we walk along so many paths and decide which is best for us, including Warrior . Here’s a line from the description that resonated for me. “ Be sure you pick a path with heart.” Isn’t that true? We should always FEEL our way through. Let me explain.

Even though Warrior was all about mentality and logic, nobody can tell me his decisions were not made with a heart centered path~~~ NOBODY… Despite his passion with his free will and principles, the heart is what makes that passion ignite like a rocket ship, 🚀 not the head. The mind thinks, the heart feels, and then the GUT acts. That’s my three 3️⃣ count, how about that?

Warrior’s paths were many, but we should all aspire to do what lights us up in spite of a livelihood for financial support. We need those outside interests so much too. The path is not a straight line either and it will take many detours. Warrior’s heart centered path finally led him back to that “Smoothie King Center” while letting all those roadblocks get clotheslined along the way. Your heart is your SOUL so listen to it and get rid of the mind chatter. We may not all take the same path or have the same journey but the final destination remains equal. You can dissect it anyway you choose but remember how it is not a weakness to follow your heart, it never is.

The next quote I will share was part of my Facebook intuitive group and boy, do they post some ultimate ones! It was several thoughts that start with: “ how to feel...” They made me get goosies! This one pertains to what I have been doing with you all these years: “ How to feel time?” “ Write.” ✍🏻

Wow, that’s amazing to me. I do feel when I write and if anyone ever has read anything Warrior wrote, he felt time too. It means you are focused on the task at hand, have little distractions, and your passion comes out. You feel the words as they are brought to life. At least that’s my take on it. I realize most of you aren’t writers, but words are so incredibly powerful~~~ spoken or written. I won’t write for hours a day like Warrior recommended but I love seeing inspiring quotes that I copy down in my many journals. You all can tell I feel my words when writing, correct? Just read out loud sometimes as that too will make you feel the words even more.

That’s my daily warrior doses of today! I had a path (always heart centered,) which led me to that Smoothie King shop similar to Warrior’s journey to HIS Smoothie King. Yes, I KNOW it is not even remotely the same but you get the idea! Even if you don’t have a smoothie or even write , always lead a heart centered life and feel many paths on your OWN warrior journey…

P.S. I have not used a non-Warrior pic ( except for selfies) in over a year!!!

P.P.S. AND, you are not going to believe this! When I went to dinner recently with my sister and nieces, we wanted 🍱 sushi as we all love it so! Guess what was one of them on the menu? Yep, a warrior roll. I did not get that, but I got “ The Beach.” 🤭
