Hydrogenated fat is our tummy's worst
enemy. This product is sticky and it does NOT
break down. It mixes with sugar and white flour
early in your digestive system, creating a waste
product that is harder to push through a tube than
toothpaste.
Hydrogenated fat doesn't move
or break down on its own as plant fiber does.
Instead it sticks and lines our intestines, and is
responsible for the distended tummies that are so
prevalent amongst us here in the U.S.
Our
intestines are sometimes double and triple their
normal size because of the accumulation of fecal
matter -- yes *fecal* matter -- that lines them.
Everyday miracles are for people
who pay attention. Miracles don’t have to be big,
blazing occurrences, often they are just little
“ah ha’s!” that mark our paths, give us guidance,
reassure us that we are on the right path, and let
us know we are loved by a Power Greater. “ Ask and
ye shall receive!
Today I realized the full extent to
which we can change people's perception of
ourselves simply by wanting to be perceived
differently.
I had a weight problem for
years... but this was resolved several years ago.
Since then I haven't been overweight. But
recently, I looked in the mirror and saw myself
heavier. So I decided that until I stopped seeing
myself that way, I would attempt to make it so
others didn't see me that way.
(Yes, I
clearly am trying to create anything that
interests me. But isn't this what any fledgling
DELIBERATE creator would do????) So I WANTED
others to see me as slender and beautiful.
Beauty is said
to be in the eye of the beholder. And yet, it is
so subjective. Is there a consensus on what
constitutes beauty? How do you know someone or
something is beautiful? There are many ways.
I
was at a week-end retreat that included a drumming
circle around the fire. At first, I couldn't for
the life of me keep a beat or stay in time with
the other drummers. We each seemed to be beating
to a different beat, all working out our way of
expressing who we were at the moment.
[Here are a few snippets of
Fresh Thought that were published recently on the
Fresh Thought email list, an interactive companion
to the eZine.]
by Adam Abraham (except
where noted)
"Transformational
ImMotility" "When we assume that "where we are,
is where we'll stay"... and are willing to fight
for the 'honor' of proving ourselves 'right'... we
will have succeeded in creating what appears to be
*no* change."
"Necroambulism" Closure to
wonderful possibility and reality -- is the
closest thing to death there is. There are many
'walking dead' amongst us today.
By
Highest Faith... ...is the only way to move,
with grace, into the unknown.
Fresh Thought Vol. 1 No. 4 is published by
Adam Abraham and Phaelos Books, and is based on
the belief that (1) we are creators of our life
experience, (2) life transformation is possible
for all, (3) abundant living is the result of
abundant thinking and feeling, and (4) there's
enough abundance to go around through
self-creation without "taking away" someone
else's.
Fresh Though is about
transformation: the birthright, power, and
responsibility of each individual, irrespective of
racial, ethnic, gender, religious, economic,
national, or political orientation.
