Food

I got sick a few weeks ago...I ended up in the ER with chest pains.  Luckily I am fairly healthy and it was not any of the things that the hospital thought it was, but it was pneumonia and on top of that pleurisy.  It hurt and for me it was a wake-up call.  We don't have tv, but we do have Netflix.  I tried to work from home some, but I could only get a morning full of work and by the afternoon I had to nap and veg.  It was good for me.  I stood still.  It was frustrating too. 

In any case, I spent a lot of time watching food documentaries on Netflix.  I learned a lot.  I learned things that I didn't want to know.  But I learned somethings about food, the way that it is grown, processed and sold that I needed to know.  I feel like I have begun a journey.  A journey to better health and a better way to live.  It isn't easy, but I think in the long run it will be worth it.

As time goes by and I have processed all the information a little better, I will consider sharing some of what I have learned.  Some of what touched me.  I don't want to get political about it.  That is not my point.  This is about me and my journey and my family's journey. 

More soon.
