Weekend Reflections: Looking at January(Random Thoughts)
Trees in Winter
As we enter Feburary I can’t help but think back on how the past month had gone by. Even though I do a Highlights of the past month every month I feel that I should resume my assessment of whether I have met the goals and targets set for that particular month.
Accountability is something that has to constantly worked on. I know that sometimes it can be really hard to be discipline and see through on what has been planned. Sometimes you really feel like cutting yourself some slack and not complete what was written on the To-Do List. However once you start to procrastinate you are just setting up yourself for failure in completed set goals. I am still struggling in this area and really do need more discipline in getting regular exercise in order to meet my weight lost goals for the year.
The world around us has really changed a lot the past year and there are more and more reports of harmful chemicals in various foods. Nothing seems to be save to eat nowadays and it is not just products/ foods that are made in China. Many unscrupulous businessmen have been adding various industrial chemicals into our foods as they want to increase their profit margins. They disregard the safety of foods and we the consumers have been unknowingly digesting this toxins into our system killing ourselves slowly.
As end consumers it is our responsibility to be well informed about the origins of the food that we consume and keep updated with the latest findings in the world so that we get the best foods for our kids.

It is very true some people get sick from the food they eat. everything has chemicals and preservatives in it. I think the safest food to eat now a days is home grown stuff and organic food.

I agree with this one. just like in one of the TV ads here in our country. “it pays to read the labels”. When we are trying new products, we usually check for the label especially the manufacturer and the country of origin.
