Thanks for clarifying. All good, not looking for followers either.

No, it isn't easy. I agree with that. To be honest altough I'm aware that language is a living thing and evolves and surely can't be locked I am like you very conservative with it but just got tired of trying to win that war.

You just follow them... even being a deserter of your motherland.

If directions have an inflated ego it's their problem.

Couldn't agree more. I work in an hospital in the north of the UK where there are many 90 and even 100 year olds surprisingly very fit...physically. Besides genetics I think it must be the oats consumed daily for many decades. Unfortunately most of these people have been demented since their 70's. Dementia is a terrible disease which I would compare to drug addiction, it destroys everything in its surroundings. I would blame mostly a culture of heavy alcohol consumption.

"Empty yourself to be filled"... Was looking forward to read this one for awhile. I seriously think it is worth every page. Upton Sinclair was a serious experimenter not just an opinator.

On a good day you'll have a laugh with it. I know 😆

I know, I know. Living a crazy weekend so forgive me for the misspelling. I could be a snob and excuse myself for the misspelling saying that I think in 3 different languages... That's a thought...

To think that in the future today's kids will feel nostalgia regarding the 2020's... That's a thought 🤔

Applying the golden rule to the machine 🤔 that's a thought!

Well, as I'm with insomnia here goes an unquestable truth: The dao bums path is the only true path. There's no salvation outside of it.

My guess is "IT" won't believe you. Not that you are wrong...

What's this ? Look closer... look harder Can't you still see it? Those are the genetic files of what used to be mankind stored on a nanoparticle.

Sure, what will be life on earth like for the human race in 20 years?

I don't often feel depressed but these days I feel depressed often... It seems like one day I woke up and suddenly got inside of a sci-fi film ... Maybe it would be bearable if we had 5 decades to adapt? We won't... Well...

I remember a time in my life when I was trying eye exercises and found out that calmly looking at one object at a time would leave me very peaceful and serene. Forgetting the aim of getting better eyesight I kept on doing it for the sake of peace of mind. A few months later my eye exam showed that I had inexplicably less two diopters of astigmatism. That convinced me that the Bates exercises really work.

Great news, thanks for sharing.

Some 20 years after reading his autobiography I've met in person Meir Schneider and can tell you that he his legit, a man that healed himself of almost total blindness through exercises based on the Bates method. https://youtu.be/JWdCGX6HzjE?si=2zMiAanqlsv3gcAI

I buy organic turmeric and keep away from the capsules. Hope you make the best choice for yourself.

Hi Apech. I try taking turmeric daily altough it rarely happens. My way of taking it is with tomato passata ( it helps with the sensation of dryness sometimes caused by turmeric in the stomach and liver) and some olive oil for absortion. I mix everything with a little water and take it. Still didn't "really" notice the big anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric. Not saying that they aren't real. I've noticed however the big anti-inflammatory properties of Boswellia Serrata (Indian frankincense) that worked better for me than NSAIDs. Beware of curcumin suplements which are causing too many reported health issues.

@steve Hope you deal well with the temporary absence of your father's presence
