The Need To Compete
|
The Need To Compete I will never understand what a person sees in the need to compete on such a level; that it would destroy everything in a power struggle; that will gain you nothing in the end but heartache and loneness. I don’t pretend to know everything or be anything more than who I am. My wealth in life has come from the many wonderful things that I have experienced; and the lives that I have touched; and in returned have touched me. I am a very blessed person that my love of life and the people around me shines though in the darkness of despair. And in the end karma and the life force of mother earth will repair her self and in return heal me in the process. I don’t know which road to take; or who I can trust at this point in my life. I am alone, scared and willing to stand my ground for what I believe is right; over that of which is easy. There is too much at stake; and the<b> sins </font></b>of my past will not be repeated again. I hope the next 10 days; will be that of long hours at work and the gym; in an effort to heal my broken body and damaged soul. The stench from the closed door still whispers in; but the fresh air from the open window is starting to reap some awards. Today is almost over and I made some good of it. Tomorrow will be even better some times the things that comes from between my ears makes me pause for reflection |

Gut feeling, keep going, believe what your gut tells you. Amongst other things, I have asked questions about heart attack, cancer, and diabetes all my life. For me, I have learned that too much sugar will lead to diabetes, maybe earlier, maybe later, and I am at risk of that, always have been, so I eat sunflower seeds, that's the shelled ones for people, not the ones still in their husks. I don't know if it's good to eat the ones in their husk or not. I learned that your cholesterol level is a really good indicator of your health, too high, and you head for heart attack, too low, and you head for cancer. If you want to lower your cholesterol, eating fish, fish oil, and avoiding any meat fats is probably the best way to go. It only makes sense then that eating more meat fats, will help restore a healthy cholesterol level, and avoiding fish products until that level is healthy. I don't know if cholesterol is measured the same way overseas as it is here, however here, they used to say that over 5.5 was not good, and 8 was a death sentence, only there were always some who lived despite their high levels. I found for me, when my cholesterol had been lowered, only by diet, to 3.4, it felt too low. I felt sick, and as I am over-sensitive, this could be used as an indicator to raise my level. I allowed it to rise to 4.3, and that felt really comfortable. If it goes higher, I feel lethargic, exhausted even, and unable to function as well as when it is 4.3. This is only something to consider. The other thing I found out recently, through going online and studying various things, was that heart health and iron are directly linked to a certain extent, along with blood pressure. If I have my normal low blood pressure, I am lacking in iron. I also feel tired from too little iron. However if I add enough iron, I no longer lack energy. Then, however, I have to be careful not to have too much, as it raises my blood pressure to dangerous levels if I am not careful. When that happens, I become at risk of a heart attack. SO, I can suspect that if I raise my blood pressure by increasing my iron levels, in the natural form, as it is very easily absorbed, (sorry forgotten what it is called).. . . . If I take extra iron, then my blood pressure will rise, and if I know anything about anything, I will also be raising my cholesterol levels as a result, so then I should head away from cancer. This is not official research, merely my research, and all I have done is share my discoveries with you. You can look things up online, consult experts or a doctor you trust, to double check and see if what I have found is correct. If you find yes, this is true, it could well help you despite your current health situation. I can only hope that this does help you. I did feel years ago, that it's like there is this lifestyle pendulum, that if you swing too far one way, you head for heart attack type problems, and if you swing too far the other way, you head for cancer issues. I found that it's also like that with diabetes, and hypoglycaemia, the opposite. If I keep my sugar intake as low as I can manage, don't substitute it with artificial sweeteners, and eat those sunflower seeds any time I don't feel right, even better, improve my diet to the point where I don't get the dizzy spells or the weakness or faintness, then I can avoid the illness that plagues my family even more than the other two. I do wish you all the best in your journey, and hope that I have finally shared with you early enough.
