Class is completed, certificate earned ( with distinction) and ready for the next one. I had forgotten how much I loved to learn and study. Though I do get a little crazy with tests. But I have been reading about health and nutrition for over 40 years and the thing that thrills me the most, my niece Samantha ( Jordan's mom) has acquired that interest also.
I have always known it in my gut, but as the years have gone by, the more I have studied and learned, I found out that if we want the best health we can have.......we have to participate, we have to often take matters into our own hands, and figure out what is best for us. We cannot rely on others to have our best interests at heart. ( in life, health, career or anything else) Blind trust in the medical profession does not get you the best care.
My transformation, fueled by a chronic illness, has been one of hard work, persistent digging, always questioning, and searching for answers. We can not be satisfied with the status quo, not when it comes to our health, nutrition and lifestyle. Don't be afraid to question, and never let someone rob you of your hope. It ain't over until the last breath is drawn. I still believe that we can create more than one blue zone in this country.
