Remember that the beautiful butterfly was once a cocoon. There is hope as long as there is life 3. "Being strong is also coming to terms that life is not easy, we may not always be happy and we should let it out for our own well being." Don't hold onto anything because you are scared of the future...if it is not working for you there is a reason for this! Sometimes suffering means that the pot of gold (something very good) after the rainbow will come your way. Never take anything that you have forgranted! Take care of it and love it. Anything can be snatched from you in a minute. When we feel...

Hi everyone- :) Below is a bilingual video of my partner, Lisa, and I describing another one of the healthy juices we make--this one is a detox juice. I also talk about the vitamins and supplements I am taking right now.

Many people have asked me about some of my health and beauty regimens. I am going to share one of them with you here in this video blog (many more to come ).

NOTE from the Editor: The Well Project is thrilled to be working together with AIDS United as a part of their "Access2Care" initiative to share the stories of several HIV positive women, their journeys of getting into the life-saving care they need, and their experiences of attending the International AIDS Conference in Washington, D.C. The A Girl Like Me blog posts on access to treatment will be cross posted on the AIDS United blog here.   Why aren't we being adherent and why of the 1.1 million Americans living with HIV, are only 25 percent virally suppressed? I guess I have to start with...

I want to share this very important message with YOU! The youth! Please, HIV/AIDS is preventable. Your body is your temple and you have to take care of it! Use protection, love yourself and test yourself. And no matter how much you think you love someone, no one is worth your life! HIV/AIDS is not a death sentence, but it is a life sentence. I don't want any of you to go through what I have been through and going through..it's a looooooooong disease and you don't only have to worry about taking your meds that will make you feel tired every day of your life and take them NON-STOP!! But you have...

(But even sometimes my spirit has a limit!!) Sometimes I feel like I can't continue. I feel that the energy gets low. This is normal to me...it has always been like this. Ever since I was a teen I had this fear that I had to live every moment to the extreme. This is a good thing, but it can be a bad thing also for people living with HIV or any disease---and even for someone that is healthy. I think what happens to me is that I live on a constant roller coaster. Ever since I changed my eating habits and practice forgiveness-- trying to be in the light and send light to others that may not have...
