You may believe in signs, you may not. But either way, if you look up the characteristics of a Leo you can basically understand who I am. And being the lovely Leo that I am, I get very protective of people that I am with. My habit to defend has got me into arguments and made me unwelcome amongst certain groups. At the end of the day it is not worth it to defend someone who is unwilling to defend themselves.
I have finally learned my lesson. You have to let people fight their own battles. I am not saying that you should not have your friends back; You should! BUT make sure they have their own back first. If someone is going to let someone talk to them in a disrespectful matter and say nothing, then they are showing that they either don't mind or don't want the comment to turn into a battle. So follow suite. Respect the "victims" observed wishes. You have enough moments in your own life where you have to decide how to react to criticism and haters, so don't add more drama into your life by deciding to defend others. When you see a "victim" standing up for themselves, than have their back, but not a moment before. If they don't mind you shouldn't either.

When You're Low, Help Someone Who is Lower!!
Most of us have hard lives. Who is to blame? Many will point the finger at others or society, when in all actuality they should point the finger at themselves. Regardless of who is to blame, and regardless of how you choose to deal with it, there are always people who are worse off then you. (Don't you hate when people say that?) However annoying that statement is, it still remains true. That is exactly why I suggest, whenever you reach a time in your life when you begin to feel self pity (the stupidest emotion on this planet), go help others.
Last November, when I was attacked, I spent many a day in bed looking at myself in the mirror crying. Especially when Thanksgiving came around, because I could not go out and be with my family. Wobbling and limping I decided to go out and feed other families their Thanksgiving dinner. And, although I had to sit down every now and then (I was still healing) I stopped feeling so bad for myself. I was feeding people that had mental problems, and many people who came in all alone. I had taken for granted the love that I had from my family and my friends. Seeing people who were missing that love made me realize that I did not have it so bad.
I forgot this feeling though. I feel bad admitting this, but I have not volunteered in a few months. ( I use to ATLEAST once a week.) But on Monday I really felt like I needed to. I had hit a plateau in my life. Many blessings are beginning to unfold, but slower then I would like them too. I felt this "why not me? Why not yet?" feeling coming over me. I needed to knock that feeling.
So I linked with Mel. This amazing guy that started Monday Night Mission (which has actually turned into 5 nights a week) We all meet and make sandwiches and then as a group we go down to Skid-Row at night (Yes, at night) And we pass out food.
It is such a humbling experience. You will see people with mental disabilities that have been deserted, people with drug issues, and people who are just down and out. (More stories soon) Some people yell at you (even after you have given them food), there are drug dealers down there who mock us the entire time, the police will even harass the group sometimes (power trip) and it just really puts your own life into perspective. I left feeling very uplifted. That day my life mattered, because I helped someone else's.
I want to make one thing clear. I am not saying go help others, because it will remind you that you are better than someone else. I am saying that there is no reason to sit in the house crying because you may have to go a month without paying your phone bill. Instead, you can go out and make at least two peoples lives better. (Your life and whom ever you choose to help.) Stop focusing on all the things that you can not do right now, and realize every day you have the option to go out and make the world better. No matter the money in your pocket, or the clothes on your back.
Just some food for thought, because I love to eat!

Thank you.

HerbaLife
What is HerbaLife?
HerbaLife is a nutrition product company. There are weight-loss replacement shakes, bars, protein shakes, supplements, workout enhancers, face moisturizers, shampoos. There are pills to help with weak joints, your digestion, stress, anxiety, your heart, and much more.The company works to improve your inner and outer nutrition needs.
How do I sign up?
Herbalife is not sold in any stores. If you would like to purchase the product you must go through a Herbalife distributer like myself. (If you email me at LeviLewi11@yahoo.com and give me your contact info we can set up a call to discuss which products would be best for you, in order to get the results you want.)
How do I pay?
If you are in the same area as the distributer you are talking to, they may meet you and come pick up your cash for your order. Sending a money order or check in the mail is a popular method for most of my clients. You can also do a wire transfer.
Can I just buy online?
Yes. However, some distributors this may not be true for, as online shopping requires that a distributer go through a certain training to be allowed to do so. I have went through that training. If you go to www.GoHerbaLife.com/LexsiLewis and fill out the customer form, I will approve you, and you will be able to purchase HerbaLife products online with your credit card.
Does HerbaLife work?
Yes! I lost 10lbs in 3 weeks, and also for the first time since my junior year of high school I do not have a pain when I work out in my right knee. I was taking 2 naps a day and once I since taking the tea I can honestly say I have not taken one nap. I have not needed to. I have also lost 7% body fat. There are also people with numerous stories of gaining weight due to lean muscle growth.
Will I get the same results?
The same results are not guaranteed. Everyone's body reacts differently. I personally have not met anyone that has stuck with their set nutrition plan and not started to see desired results. HERBALIFE IS NOT A MAGIC PILL AND YOU WILL NOT BE GET RESULTS BY DRINKIN SHAKES, AND THEN EATING MCDONALDS!!
Why should I use HerbaLife over al the other products?
First of all let me start by saying, Herbalife is not the only product that works. Plenty of people get results other ways. HerbaLife has worked for me, and that is why I suggest it. I liked HerbaLife because it stress' nutrition and not weight loss or gain. Herbalife has a big community as well, through its social media and fit clubs I have met a new group of people that are just as interested as being healthy as I am, and it makes it easier to stick to your nutrition plan when you have a team pushing you as well. I call it Herbavation! lol
Do I need to work out to see results?
The products will give you results by just taking them. BUT For best results, YES you should still go to the gym. HerbaLife is not just a product. If you are signing up to be a customer be prepared for a Lifestyle change. This is a product that you can and should use for life. Fitness is 20% of it and your nutrition is the other 80% BUT they both matter.
How do I become a distributer?
Again if you email me at LeviLewi11@yahoo.com I can give you further details.
What are the benefits of becoming a distributer?
The first benefit is once you are a distributer you can begin purchasing the products at a discount. Also, there is only a one time fee. I make my own schedule,work from home, and decided if I am going to work today or hit the beach. Becoming a distributer has given me freedom. The money you make depends on the effort you put into it.
If you all have any other questions you may want answered, leave a comment. Others will probably have the same questions and you may help them out as well.
