The Obesity Epidemic

 I had looked at the comments on an Amazon book about obesity. As a matter of fact I looked at a few comments and most of them were favorable about this one book. Most people that commented on it loved how the author wrote it. Most people were satisfied. But this one person only gave it a one star rating and I thought that was so wrong. They wanted to read more about other people, how other people dealt with their obesity.

In a way I know what it means to be obese. I have been carrying around an extra hundred pounds for over 20 years. I blame it on the medication I have been taking. It is hard because I needed medication and the stuff I am on, was on, makes you gain extra weight and for me I craved sweet breads. I just could not help it. I mean I live in this body. And that is what was so hard about it all. 

I just don't know what else to say about it all.

Impact Of Social Media On Society

 Now what can I say about social media? Well for me it hasn't been the easiest thing. I mean I have found people to act worse than being together socially. I found it hurtful and well that just spoiled everything for me and the people on the platforms. Family, friends, it all didn't matter. I found people to be negative and very hurtful. Like the devil was coming out of everyone and no one not really paying attention to how they were behaving towards others. For me I don't think I am missing much not being on Face Book or X or TikTok. Plus I am terrible with the layout of most of them. I don't do well with technology with most of the programs. No give me a phone. A plain ordinary phone and a good friend and we will have the best of times:)

The Rise Of AI

 Not too long ago I wrote about AI on this blog. I mentioned something like: the things that happen in our imaginations could possibly happen in the future. I talked about StarTrack or something like that. Come to think of it I remember an episode on the Twilight Zone where this machine, which was actually a AI man, had a lot of human qualities. The lady in the episode was actually falling in love with it or something. Come on now folks this was tv back in the day and the Twilight Zone always had interesting content to view. Hm I wonder if the Twilight Zone still comes on. I don't watch tv much anymore.

Transgender Issues 2023

 Ok I must ask: "How do you all feel about Transgender Issues of today?" I mean when I was coming up no one thought of this. I mean in fact this was unthinkable. Our issues were suicide, std's, and unplanned pregnancies. We all never ever would think something even close to this. And now, well we have little children questioning if they are a boy or a girl. I am thinking that there must be someone or some group of people pushing this type of social issue. I mean really. I think this all started back when children of movie stars started questioning their identity. I remember reading this back a few years ago. Before the pandemic. These siblings actually got depressed about their identity. Hm I wonder what their parents thought of them. But you know what, these two siblings still have their private parts and I don't think they had any surgeries. The son still looks like a boy and the daughter still looks like a girl. Wow.

 Hi all!

Nice to be back writing here. Just been busy and I guess kind of lazy too. Oh I can't help it. I am human. And well just been working on a lot of other stuff. I keep a journal and well i love it cause i can carry it with me and write anytime i want in it. Just me I guess. Just want to say that a lot of activities are really against me and well that is alright cause Jesus is with me and my family and I love Him for that. Thank You God for that. I think my writing has really improved from my first entry here and that is alright you know. I can think much clearer and well I am feeling like a whole new world has opened up for me and all my family and that is great. Well we have got over a year to vote for someone for president and I really know who I am going to vote for. Just wont say it here and now cause I want to keep it a secret and I feel that I treasure privacy and all you know. Just treasure privacy. I treasure privacy, peace, alone time, family, and a lot of other stuff you know. I mean I am getting older and a lot of stuff in life is falling into place and it is just so cool how it all is happening you know. Been working on taking off a lot of weight and toning my body and self in more ways than one and well that is falling into place too. Not sure about the future but I think I am coming out of the wilderness and all. Been a long time there. Learning this and that and going through this and that and well Jesus has been there all along you know. He has just been there for me and my family you know. For some reason I have been writing in my journal other than on here. You know it is easier to take some paper and a pen and just write. I flow either way just I do better with a pen and some paper. Oh yes, also someone stole our other laptop so it was much harder getting to a computer to write on my blog. But I do want to keep writing on here cause it is much older than me writing in my journals you know. Even if I don't own this blog I still want to keep writing in it. I think they may be using ai on here. I found out some things about ai and well to me it is like the jetsons or the terminator. Meaning a lot of stuff could happen with computers, ai, and the whole futuristic stuff. What I mean is the jetsons was a cartoon of a family living in the future and they had flying cars and had a robot for a maid and everything was high tech you know. It was just a cartoon. And well you know the movie the terminator, a computer that looked like a real machine that looked like a man but was very advanced. Oh and we can't forget about star trek. A bunch of high tech people that went from galaxy to galaxy discovering new places and new forms of life. But I do have to say is that star trek really scared me. It was so out there. I mean it was the early seventies and I was just a little kid. Back then it was too much and I was just so young. 

So now they have people taking trips above earth, flying cars that may soon be available for anyone to buy. I guess what one can imagine can come to pass.

 How are u all doing?

i just saw something interesting online earlier today. people were gathering these giant oysters and finding pearls in these oysters.  these things were really very large. the oysters had a lot of colored pearls in them.

i thought to myself how do oysters get started. so i read somewhere on the web that the oysters release their eggs and sperm in the water and they meet up  to make babies. is that interesting or what?

and i also found out how they get to be so big. i mean how do they grow? well they filter water and they eat tiny plants and algae. is that all interesting or what? wow. makes me want to get a pail and make my way to the beach. for real. hm now i remember i read this book called 'The Pearl', well something like that and i think i am trying to compare these two sets of information. in 'The Pearl' this diver had to dive deep in the ocean to find one pearl and i think he found only one rather large pearl and what i saw today all these ladies had to do was just go wade in the small pond to find the oysters. wow...i would rather wade in a small lake then dive in the ocean.

now i am wondering if there are male oysters and female oysters?

oh wow, just found out that there are female and male oysters and they can change their sex in their life time. wow..

just something to think about

 oh wow! what has been happening in our world lately is pretty much a trip. Sad things too. you know i have been pretty much busy with life. and i think it is all all right. I have been working on a book. nonfiction you know. i find it challenging to write a book. with what i went through when i was growing up.... wow. what Jesus has brought me through was a lot of stuff. i guess life can be hard and challenging and all. but hey...look to Jesus for all your needs in life, Jesus and Father God will take care of you. You just keep doing right and follow Jesus and you will be all right.
