Beloved,
I regret not being able to read all the posts and meeting all the new family members.
I have been having a tough time, but still quite active. I will try fasting and the apple diet again this Spring. I have been able to take only the Cymbalta for pain tolerance. But a few times I have had to go home from work due to exhaustion or pain. My heart gets uneven and irregular, which just wears me out. I have lots of joint pain and my chest and arms burn and are numb. I know some of you know all about it.
Lin keeps saying, "you are killing yourself".
But I am afraid to stop. You all know how that is..........
I am becoming quite involved in the Tea Party Movement and study of the Constitution. I have two son in laws that make a lot of money and are graduates of European Schools with masters degrees. They have a much different theory on spending and on government, than I do. I will have another radio interview soon, with the local radio station. I enjoy the rousing discussion. We live in a great country where we can express our opinions, even though I am now on the “presidential list”, I believe strongly in what I am doing, and who I am doing it for!
We have been active in working with felons who are trying to recover from addictive behavior! Lin and I had to get away for two days, because some adults just have no experience in taking care of their own lives, their health or keeping a job. One guy, who is 50, calls me Dad. Yea, I know it makes me feel old. But teaching adults that decisions have consequences is where a lot of work needs to be done in this society. I want to encourage all of you who are in pain, remember, tomorrow may not be better. So do what you can today. Us gimps have come to appreciate moments of less pain, moments of joy and pleasure. We can give of what we have learned so that others can live free of the bondage of poor choices.
I believe as our founding Fathers have said, “that our liberties are a gift from God”! No man has the right to take them from me. But out of love I will compromise willingly, at times for your best interest. It really is a great Declaration and Constitution that we have.
Well, I have done enough damage for now, I love you all, and pray for good health and blessings in every good way, to each of you.
Lon
I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!
