Putting things in prospective.

One thing that I have noticed since I started taking better care of myself over the last 2 + years. Is I never really get sick as often as I use to. I have managed in the last couple days to adopt a bit of a sore throat. And if my wife could speak for me. She would tell you how I manage to transform into a 2 year old whenever I am sick. So I'm sure she is thankful it doesnt happen often too ;) Haha!
But for the most part thats been the extent of negative effects in my overall health. And to be honest, I'm thankful as I get older to manage my health better. This has at times brought me to think of my freinds and family and how they take care of themselves too. I come from a family that has always had issues with weight and even diabetes. Fortunately some have taken it apon themselves to go through major surgeries in order to correct this. And that had brought some positve results and also complications as well. it would be so much easier if people realized that all they need to do is include more activity and exercise in their daily lives, and eat healthier to aquire the same results. And in many cases improve themselves even more than they would going "under the knife", or deal with complications.

So even though we still live in a world of 'quick fixes" and instant gratifications'.There is still a growing interest in people that are willing to put the effort in to making the necessary changes in their lives and health, and be able to say "Yes I did this"!! That is 100% better than any pill, potion, or surgery can do for a person. Because not only does it just change a persons physical appearance. It changes their heart, their minds and their dreams. At least that's the way I see it. :) And I truly hope more and more people realize the benefits of this and make those changes in their own lives. Because then it won't matter what kind of health insurance changes happen in the world. You'll be a healthier and happier person inside and out, and won't need to wait in that line for the next "quick fix" or medical miracle. And the satisfaction of knowing all it took was you.
