If I Had a Goat, This is How You’d Get It…

…..Why don’t people want to take care of themselves?

We are such strong individuals, so resilient, so tough.  Our immune systems are second to none, fighting off anything from the common cold to wretched cancers. Yet, we insist on making our bodies work to capacity most of the time. Bad Diet, Alcohol, Cigarettes, Scarcity of Exercise….

Why do we insist on making it so hard for our vehicles to get along, happily and healthily?

Is it a inherent conditioning? Is it lack of education? Or, is it just plain laziness?

Where did we adopt the attitude of  ’But it’s easier this way’, ’I’ll quit when I’m older’ or ’I’ll start taking better care of myself when I have more money/time’?

We are primed, initially by our parents but what we learn isn’t necessarily true for us as we mature. We should be encouraged and encourage our children, to educate themselves on how to treat the Vehicle, designated to them in this life.

For humans in the Age of Technology and Information, we tend to forget that knowledge is easily acquired. It’s just a matter of taking the time to go out there, find and clarify the information or simply ask an expert in that field…

It’s easy to be ambivalent, it’s easy to blame your parents and it’s easy to be what you know.

What’s hard is taking responsibility for who you are now, what you are prepared to learn and who you want to become.

Eat more greens people, start reading and do some fucking exercise…!
