Who Is In Control?

I started to write this under the heading of Health, Fitness & Wellness, however as I was down to the third or fourth paragraph I realized that there was a lot more on my mind than the opening paragraph… So here it is…

No matter what you do, you can’t deny that your health, fitness and wellness effects every aspect of your life. From an early age your eating habits were formed.  At grade school there were always playground activities for fitness.  And wellness was never addressed until recently as being an integral part of ones life.

As older teens and young adults, many of our early childhood programing remained deeply embedded silently guiding our decisions at the subconscious level.  With societies accelerated lifestyle sweeping our lives onto adulthood, we shed more of the core programming that once protected us and kept our health and well being in balance.

Early at the turn of the nineteenth century ushered in the industrial age and a mindset of values that shaped America.  Little did we know that like sheep, keen businessmen with a grand agenda planted a veil of illusion of the American Dream.  Using their leverage of economics, politics and media these  business leaders created a nearly perfect foundation for national if not global dominance.

Now with the advent of technology and the finely tuned methodologies of psychological programming we are under the thumb of politics, government, media and marketing.  Shaping our daily decisions of education, career and  lifestyle as well as our children whom they trust us to guide them through their early years of development.

All of this reminds me of the book I read some years ago, Rule By Secrecy.  While I try not to linger on conspiracy theories they do capture my interest.  Although many in my mind are believable, what power do I have to change it?

More to come…

Confessions Of An Information Addict

Yes the truth is out…. I’m an “Information Addict”. Yes I surf the net for all kinds of subjects. I tangent off on to uncharted realms. I look up words I question the meaning of which can lead me farther away from my intend query.

Even more, I subscribe to all kinds of email list, just to get the Freebie (who doesn’t?). Most of the time I’ll read the first page or two if I even get that far. While my intentions are well meaning probably 99% of the time I never even open, unzip or remember why I nabbed the dam thing in the first place. Although I do have a Download Folder full of the stuff I got for free.

Like the old saying goes…. So Many Things – So Little Time it applies to my life as an information addict. The downside of all of this is that I keep forgetting to un-subscribe to all those sites. My email box fills with relentless auto-responder mail in a vain attempt to sell me whatever….

Some morning I just spend time unsubscribing to all that junk. I figure that if I didn’t open it I really need to unsubscribe. However there are a few subscriptions that I hang on to. I skin the subject line for what catches my eye and then do a quick scan of the mail.

Well I know that I’m not alone out there… there are other who are caught up in the same never ending quest for more information. The question is for myself and possibly many of you is …. How Much Is Enough?

Last week I found a book that seems to describe this hunger for information and how to manage it. I found it while browsing Amazon and it is:

Years Ago

Years ago I would not have thought it could come to this.  Far apart and only a wish.  You see now how fun it is, to have your life like this.  Never knowing that I need a kiss.  Life like a picture, you are ready to paint, and all of a sudden it’s that glass you blew, a paper weight.  But it is so fun to let your love come undone with understanding hearts.  Here I am in the back of your mind, stored away till the end of time. But that is the price I have to pay when loving is lost, and eyes see through me.
