In the beginning…
My life started out badly. I certainly have no cognitive memory of infancy, but was told that I cried for the first six months. Being the upper middle child in a family of 6 children, my mother already had her hands full with my older sister and brother only 11 months apart and then my arrival not quite 2 years later. I was not breastfed, which I believe contributed to the problem. And because of my sensitivity to energies, I felt my mother’s frustration with magnified intensity. My parents eventually found out that I had severe ear infections and had both eardrums lanced. I do not know if they administered antibiotics to my wee body, but, I have had challenges from yeast, fungi and viruses for most of my life.
My digestive system was very fragile until my 20’s. I stopped eating hamburger in 1972 (the cost had gone up and I could not afford to purchase it) With the elimination of red meat, my bowels started to work a bit better, so much so that I decided to learn about our digestive system, it’s requirements, etc. Just the length alone should tell us NOT to eat animals. Our system is designed to function with high amounts of fiber and there is absolutely NONE in animal products (flesh or fluids). So, why oh why do they tell us to eat so much of the stuff! Certainly not for our health! It is difficult for us to digest and assimilate animal protein and it is about as far away as you can get from the ultimate source of all life, the Sun.
My preferences today are fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. I do my best to purchase nothing from the inside aisles at the grocery. Man-made, processed foods are empty calories that do nothing to rebuild our bodies on a cellular level. And whether you realize it or not, eating is not just something we do for pleasure!, or a social event! It is our fuel. I hear people say all the time that they can’t afford organic food, or fresh food takes too long to prepare. Would you put garbage in that piece of tin you drive around in and expect it to get you from point A to point B? NO. You know that you have to put fuel in your car, change the oil & keep the radiator full of water so you can get in, crank the engine and go. So, why on earth do humans believe that they can eat junk food, drink sugared acidic soft drinks nor have regular bathroom habits? I’m talking 2 to 3 bowel movements daily. If what the food guide promotes is so good for us, why is there so much dis-ease in this country?
It seems to me, people are turning into the docile beings that they have been consuming in massive amounts, and actually, I believe they are even starting to resemble them. Huge bellies on the men, they seem more abundant than pregnant woman today! Skinny arms and legs, no butt. The United States citizens have some of the worst health in the developed countries. The sad reality is the obese folks walking (or riding in their carts) around are actually malnourished from too many empty calories. Sometimes I want to scream, “Would you all just wake up and think about what you are doing to yourselves!”
