Move or Die...
A simple, basic fact of life most of us have forgotten is that,
like the rest of the animal kingdom, we must "move or die".
Inertia can take years to kill us. In fact, inertia is a long, slow
death. Most of us just give up at a certain level of "old age"
and accept what we've heard all our lives is our fate.
The government knows this and so does Big Pharma. They also know that
most of us believe we are not personally accountable for our health - it's our
doctor's problem, not ours. The doc figures it all out and we just take
the pills. The drug companies spend huge amounts of money marketing their
poisons directly to the consumer so that we ask for it by name before we even
get a diagnosis. Heck, we don't even
need a disease because if you claim a symptom loudly enough, your doctor will be
"inclined to treat you". Remember they are treating symptoms NOT
curing a disease.
Do you know why the drug companies spend all that
money marketing directly to consumers?
Because
they're making enough money to make it worthwhile.
In fact, we do a lot of marketing for them. I often hear people brag about how many different pills they take a day. They boast about taking the trendy, new "status" drugs as if the fact that they got a prescription validates how sick they really are. People talk around the water cooler about how bad their migraines are, how debilitating their PMS, how crippling their arthritis, etc.
It's almost as if it were a competition. "My disease is way more miserable than your disease! It's a wonder I get through the days... work is lucky I show up at all." It's as if this disease validates all their excuses for their crappy,
unfulfilled lives and proves we are not in control at all. We don't know
who's in the projection box, but it's not us. Being sick and miserable also validates a certain lack of performance, not just at work, but in life.
Death by Convenience
Have you ever considered the real cost of convenience foods? We are
slowly being poisoned by our lazy willingness to opt for the quick and easy, but we forget that
we are engineered to work for our food. It's the natural order of things. We
must catch it, drag it home (or move the tribe), skin it, cook it, etc.
Nowadays even the walk to the microwave seems like too much work.
Wake up and smell the bullshit...
We decide every day how healthy we're going to be. Add those days
end-to-end and they make a life, for good for evil. The beauty of it is
that every day we wake up with a fresh opportunity to make a new decision.
