Why Am I Here… ?

I mean really, if I want to research & improve my eating habits, stick to regular exercise, develop & maintain an attitude of gratitude, make forgiveness a priority, seek intimate counsel, peace & direction in my spiritual life… why broadcast it? Why document it? And why embarrass myself publishing my personal wrestling match with those annoying XL-tags on my Meal & Workout Journal blog?

Well, its very simple. It’s all about LOVE. I’ll spare you the philosophical details. Suffice to say that when I read statements like this (click here):

“Who would’ve thought we’d ever see the day where what you eat (and) exercise, could account for more cancer deaths than smoking?”

it pisses me off! We have simple, inexpensive remedies available to avoid such pain & heartbreak, and to live a life of inner wealth, but the information is being diverted from us. I mean really, where’s the money to be made by the various corporations (tabacco, fast/processed food, pharmaceutical, heathcare, etc) that make a financial killing on our bad habits? It remains unfortunately true: the pursuit of profit is the root of all evil.

…however, in the final analysis it is we OURSELVES who determine our future fitness!

And with my little vent I’ve blown off enough steam & invigorated myself to jump into my yoga pants this morning & join the opening workout of my annual attendance at the Las Vegas Health, Healing & Happiness Expo… I’m out the door to gather more info & momentum on this journey… toodles!
