CHANGES There is one complaint which seems to be very common with most of us. So often so many of us feel we are "in a rut" - socially, work-wise and in every aspect or being that which we are.
Everything strays the same, we moan in our misery and long for something different and exciting in our lives when such changes occur, we are often not in the least, prepared to accept them as they are. We, all to often, fail to accept changes which do come our way. We seem to prefer the security afford by remaining as we have been and refuse anything new.
It reminds me of a small child who refuses to eat a specific food because "it doesn't taste good!" without ever having tasted it to find out.
Our physical selves are in a constant state of change. Few people are concerned with the fact that every cell in their alimentary canal will die and be replaced over the next twenty-three days. Such drastic changes are constantly taking place; cells are being replaced by the millions according to the negative values we provide through the nutritional values we supply by the foods we ingest or the exercises we do not do.
In recent years new language terms describe one of my favorite breakfast foods - oatmeal - in strange terms discussing antioxidants, beta-glucan in particular, cytokines, phytochemicals, and a large number of flavonoids which keep the cell protected from oxidation and plaque formation. Our life styles have changed and are still changing whenever such discoveries or developments are made. Our living changes in like manner as well. You may ignore it, but you can't escape its benefits at some point in your constantly altering way of living.
Wise up. Go with such changes.
