Waiting in line at Subway is not normally the place to have revelation, but I’ll take it wherever I can get it. I evaluated all the meat-containing subs, and was about to choose one of them, when I remembered what Lori had told me the week before. Processed, preserved meats have a connection with cancer. (more…)
I know now that the reason I can be so complacent about my health is that I really just believe that everything is going to be alright. None of the bad stuff that happens to other people will happen to me. Somehow, someway, I’m going to be alright.
Once I was honest about the fact that I felt that way, I began to see a very disturbing reality. If I continue down this path of a sedentary lifestyle, eating whatever I feel like, it will kill me. I’ll die of cancer, heart disease, or heart attack. And if none of those manage to get me, the last 20 years of my life will be miserable. This is not a "worst case scenario", this is what happens every day to people. And it has nothing to do with not having faith in God.
