When she was a little girl
they told her she was beautiful
but it had no meaning
in her world of bicycles
and pigtails
and adventures in make-believe.

Later, she hoped she was beautiful
as boys started taking notice
of her friends
and phones rang for
Saturday night dates.

She felt beautiful on her wedding day,
hopeful with her
new life partner by her side
but, later,
when her children called
her beautiful,
she was often exhausted,
her hair messily tied back,
no make up,
wide in the waist
where it used to be narrow;
she just couldn't take it in.

Over the years, as she tried,
in fits and starts,
to look beautiful,
she found other things
to take priority,
like bills
and meals,
as she and her life partner
worked hard
to make a family,
to make ends meet,
to make children into adults,
to make a life.

Now,
she sat.
Alone.
Her children grown,
her partner flown,
and she couldn't remember
the last time
she was called beautiful.

But she was.

It was in every line on her face,
in the strength of her arthritic hands,
the ampleness that had
a million hugs imprinted
on its very skin,
and in the jiggly thighs and
thickened ankles
that had run her race for her.

She had lived her life with a loving
and generous heart,
had wrapped her arms
around so many to
to give them comfort and peace.
Her ears had
heard both terrible news
and lovely songs,
and her eyes
had brimmed with,
oh, so many tears,
they were now bright
even as they dimmed.

She had lived and she was.
And because she was,
she was made beautiful.

Strength in Stillness: The Power of Transcendental Meditation Strength in Stillness: The Power of Transcendental Meditation

Principles Author & Bridgewater Funds CEO Ray Dalio - on Transcendental Meditation.

Hedge fund billionaire Ray Dalio: Meditation is ‘the single most important reason' for my success The co-chief investment officer and co-chairman of Bridgewater Associates recommends a book on the technique.

The sad truth :
"I destroy homes, tear families apart - take your children, and that's just the start.
I'm more costly than diamonds, more costly than gold - the sorrow I bring is a sight to behold.
And if you need me, remember I'm easily found.
I live all around you, in schools and in town.
I live with the rich, I live with the poor, I live down the street, and maybe next door.
My power is awesome - try me you'll see.
But if you do, you may never break free.
Just try me once and I might let you go, but try me twice, and I'll own your soul.
When I possess you, you'll steal and you'll lie.
You'll do what you have to just to get high.
The crimes you'll commit, for my narcotic charms, will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in your arms.
You'll lie to your mother; you'll steal from your dad.
When you see their tears, you should feel sad.
But you'll forget your morals and how you were raised.
I'll be your conscience, I'll teach you my ways.
I take kids from parents, and parents from kids, I turn people from God, and separate from friends.
I'll take everything from you, your looks and your pride, I'll be with you always, right by your side.
You'll give up everything - your family, your home, your friends, your money, then you'll be alone.
I'll take and I'll take, till you have nothing more to give.
When I'm finished with you you'll be lucky to live.
If you try me be warned this is no game.
If given the chance, I'll drive you insane.
I'll ravish your body, I'll control your mind.
I'll own you completely; your soul will be mine.
The nightmares I'll give you while lying in bed.
The voices you'll hear from inside your head.
The sweats, the shakes, the visions you'll see.
I want you to know, these are all gifts from me.
But then it's too late, and you'll know in your heart, that you are mine, and we shall not part.
You'll regret that you tried me, they always do.
But you came to me, not I to you.
You knew this would happen.
Many times you were told, but you challenged my power, and chose to be bold.
You could have said no, and just walked away.
If you could live that day over, now what would you say?
I'll be your master; you will be my slave.
I'll even go with you, when you go to your grave.
Now that you have met me, what will you do?
Will you try me or not?
Its all up to you.
I can bring you more misery than words can tell.
Come take my hand, let me lead you to hell."

Colon cancer in those under 40 is rising, but this shouldn't surprise you - and it doesn't have to happen.
While we don't know the exact moment and trigger for cancer, we do know what it is and the contributing factors for it.
Cells procreate through splitting in two, with each new cell an exact duplicate of the original. And they do this only when new cells are needed, either through daily cell turn over or healing from an injury of whatever kind.
But they have on/off switches and even kill switches. When you have a cut, cell reproduction is triggered. When the cut is fully healed this reproduction is turned off. And when cells are are damaged, their programming orders them to die.
Now, inside each cell are 1-2 thousand tiny organelles called mitochondria. These are the energy production units of the cells.
As we take toxins into our body through food, air and water these mitochondria are damaged or destroyed by these poisons: glyphosate, heavy metals, PFAS, etc. This can also happen through age or genetics, but the rising incidence correlates to rising toxins in our environment.
This damage should then trigger death for these cells. But in cancer, the mechanism in DNA that activates death is, itself, damaged and so death doesn't occur. Instead, the cell mutates into a new type of cell, with no death switch, and begins reproducing out of control. This is how smoking causes lung cancer.
But with colon cancer we have this: the first defense our bodies have against new toxins coming in is our digestive system. This is the first and largest filter.
As we take in more and more toxins this defense system becomes overwhelmed and the cells start to become damaged due to absorption of these poisons.
At some point, in some people, the damage becomes too great in the colon and cancer sets in.
But while treating that can be arduous, preventing it is not.
Work to eat only organic, whole foods. Get a good water filtration system. Do not eat processed foods. Get a good probiotic to help remove the toxins that make it into your system and do natural bowel cleanses now and then.
This won't guarantee a cancer-free life - but will significantly help!

Empathy vs. Sympathy
