in my own observation and opinion;
these two are what's
making our world
difficult..
laziness..
on work or business:
everyone is looking for
"easy job big money!"
on health:
better grab the keys
and go to restaurants or drive thru.
do we know that it takes 30minutes to cook a decent meal?
others may even grab their car keys and drive to get a liter of milk or can of coffee
instead of walking a block or two to the convenient store.
we do not need to go to the gym
to be healthy,
your chores can make you physically fit.
garden with the whole family.
sun is up 'til about 8pm.
momma is cooking
while dad is doing the lawn
with the kids,
a portion of the lawn a day.
we do not need to buy & read health books and consult dietitian or health guru,
to tone down or loose or gain weight.
we know the right foods, don't we?
that is even taught at home and in school when we were young.
easy and convenience is the answer why.
selfishness...
how big a house,
how big bank account,
how expensive car, clothes, shoes,
how many weeks of holidays a year,
how many slaves,
and so on and so forth
can make the rich
or anyone of us happy?
we need to learn
the true sense of giving and sharing!..
i agree with your assessment...we have created this culture as well...it did not just happen...and it will take work to turn the ship around...
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, totally, and it is the way I was raised, and if folks look back before all the fast food joints arrived, and even before all the gyms came to life, people were not so over weight and they were healthy, and happy... having less is more, it's a fact, and as my husband and I just said today, children need our time spent with them and not just a zillion toys or techy things!
