Do you remember when you were young, the fun you had running fast, jumping non-stop, rolling down the hill, riding your bike, skating, falling down, and getting up to do it all again! Those were the fun days you thought would never end, but they did. What happened? Life, is what happened.
Years have passed, and we got older. We don’t play or go outside, unless you have to walk the dog, get the mail, take out the trash, or mow the lawn.
Then, if that is not enough, technology comes into our lives and now, we move even less.
Now, we are in a complete standstill because of being quarantined, we have to stay in our homes.
Everyone wants to come outside and still be unsocial because all people do is look at their phones even when they are visiting family or friends? That does not make any since to me.
We have become ostriches in America. We are so busy looking down that we are not looking at what is happing around us.
We are so distracted, we don’t even see how they make our food. “They” are killing us slowly, but not only us but our animals, too. They are stripping the soil of its nutrients that help us sustain our bodies.
Our bodies in turn are trying to do the best they can to keep going. The food we eat does not give us the sufficient nutrients that we need to fight off the illness and the diseases that we are starting to see each day.
Our children are getting the brunt of it, because by the mothers that are having children and not having the nutrients only weakens each generation.
We are not as strong as our ancestors use to be.
We need to make a change and take our food growing into our own hands.
I’m sure making some of these changes would improve one’s body, like arthritis. Many men and women have this panful disease and for some it is so crippling. Many people can not walk, or lose the use of their hands to do self care.
