Social conditioning gets the blame when we choose fast foods and brand name wear.
Advertisers know what creatures of habit we mortals be, and they use that weakness to persuade us to buy whatever they tell us to.
Tell us enough times that pop and fries taste good and we’ll believe you. They will even become popular.
We’re lazy thinkers and will ignore the warning that excess sugar and fats are unhealthy. That’s in the fine print, and we’ll ignore it until we start to develop lifestyle related chronic diseases. Then, instead of changing our lazy ways, we’ll reach for medicines to undo the damage we continue to do to our bodies.
Medicines are not yet designed to replace intelligence.

A Journal of a journey, with Spirit as my guide, using
the wisdom of I Ching, an ancient explanation of change as a necessary part of life, to understand Life, and where, how, and why my life has developed as it has, and where do I go from here, and how, and why.
My mission, purpose, or desire is to share my struggle toward and passion for enlightenment, without having a clear idea of what it will look like when I find it, and I intend to find it, sooner or later.
Meanwhile I seem to be struggling toward enlightenment without a clear road map, unless Spirit, my constant companion (did He invite himself along, for laughs, perhaps?) is hiding it from me, for whatever reason.
Vancouver, BC Canada is the only place I care to live, in this world. Perhaps it's not entirely by choice. My name is carved into a nearby sidewalk, as if to remind me where I belong. I am blessed to have Spirit as a teacher. Just ask him.
