When I was on vacation earlier this summer, I watched a documentary about Jack Kevorkian. This was weird for me in that I work every day to assist people in living with a higher quality of life. So in effect what I do, as I see it, is the opposite of what Dr. Kevorkian was doing for his patients. His ideas surrounding assisted suicide and the ending of pain and suffering through ending life is the inverse of my helping people reduce pain to gain further quality of life. An enriched life. His arguments are ones of choice, dying with dignity, being humane, limiting pain\suffering and much more. What really struck me while listening to his interview and the passion he had about this area is that we make choices every day (on a different level of course) regarding our dignity, our suffering, and treating our bodies in humane manners!
What choices are you making? Are you making choices now that are going to reduce your pain, your suffering, and your overall stress in life? I hope so! My passion is to help guide you in positive directions in your life, encourage you to think about balancing life's challenges with a fit, strong, healthy, and positive attitude.
We must realize that we all have a choice. We have a choice to slip, slip, slide away from our health, relationships, careers and lives.. or we can choose to make a concerted effort to change. To resist the compulsive behaviors that are cast on us every day through the various media out there. Choices to establish goals and live a vital, directed, purposeful, active and spiritually enriched life are in front of us every day! The time to act is now! Write some goals, go for a walk, eat healthier, care for your family, go for your goals!
