i.c. too fat for their own good.

Is this because they have too much

available food in America?

Or could it be Americans

would rather wind up stretched out

in intensive care units

lying like whales washed up on a beach

than sit down and make friends

with boredom.

I think there is a hunger that no food can feed. It is of the

'spiritual' kind. No American religion, via sports, tv, junk food

etc. -- all the tried and true -- can ever quench, satisfy.

 

We are as hollow flutes and when we live untethered, we are fed from

the inside out.

 

We are spirits who seek the truth and have nowhere to hide but in

ourselves.

 

Love,

Anna

So it is not all the 'adulteration' that goes on (?)- both with

american food and minds not to mention 'hearts'? Not many 'obese' in

the Amish community, wonder why that is???

 

I guess (ie my point of view) that it is a case of gigo - garbage in

garbage out - an old term from the (relatively) ancient days of

computing.

Yes. As the poet said--which poet I forget--:

Something is hungry

That is not being fed.

 

But at the end of the day there is no accounting for the overweight

issue-who is it, by the eway, that has determined the parameters of

that condition? It has been noticed that a lot of intuitives suffer

from adipose. Who can say why? Z

The only Amish I ever saw up close were a man and a woman on a

Greyhound bus.unsympathetic, dull, frumpy. Z
