Health and Fitness- Is it for You?!
by Boredom… boredom can cause you to do some crazy things. I sometimes will clean, (sometimes mind you…) or read, study, sleep, sleep, or sleep. Today was one of those days. I had a late couple nights the last few days, so since I’m ahead on my time for the year, I took the day off till I came to work. So I was thinking. You know what is a real problem today? This fixation with health and fitness. Why? Does ANYONE recall Moses waking up early in the morning and going jogging? Or Jesus taking a few hours after preaching to hit the gym? NO! And why is this? Cause, I think we are all a buncha lazy people now a days.
We have fast food, fast cars, and fast women… I mean… no, but we don’t have to go through the same amount of work anymore, we have it all laid out for us. We go shopping at a STORE to get food, not grow it ourselves. We have riding lawnmowers. Desk jobs. Maids. Landscapers.... so on and so on...
Another thing, butter, we buy our butter, not churn it… One time, I was just kidding around with one of those churns, cause my friends mom has one in her attic. I couldn’t imagine doing that for hour and hours. Milk... whens the last time you woke up at 5 in the morning and went off to milk Betsy for breakfast that morning. Or after Betsy had a few years of milking under her belt you brought her out the back of the shed and shot her for beef for the next few months?
Anyways, this brought me to think about myself, now I’m sure EVERYONE here either, from seeing me, or hearing the banter back and forth on musings and whatnot, knows that I have gained a few pounds… which bothers me of course. Naturally, when summertime comes, you have the constant annoyance of trying to burn off those extra pounds you have accumulated from the hibernation over the winter. But…besides that, it made me think of how we are going to react to actually WORKING in the new system. Seriously, I saw a commercial the other day about a ROBOT lawnmower, yes… little dinky yellow thing that drives around and mows your lawn! No doubt this will spawn a new age of more robotic chore-doers! I wonder how people are going to react to the sudden amount of work they are going to do… haha… but anyways. What do you guys think about the whole societies view on fitness and health?
PS... doesnt the heading sound like an Awake article.. hahahahha

i so totally agree,....when me and Tina were in Italy, first of all, we both lost a few pounds...even though we ate SO much great food everyday...but the reason was that we walked EVERYWHERE! americans are for the most part really lazy. everyone, seriously EVERYone in Italy was thin....no fat people! and if they were fat...they were american!
shaddup fat boy!
The heading does sound like an Awake article. Good job, Mikey. I have a gym membership, and I should go more often; my bed is just much more inviting. I like to look to the really fat people of America for inspiration-don't be fat----WORK OUT!
there's that electric work out pad thing...just put it on while you're asleep and wake p with a six pack.
In Lilo & Stitch, Lilo has the hobbie of taking pictures of fat American's in bikini's that go on vacation in Hawaii. It's pretty great.
wowo, how insightful. True, so true. This is the fattest country in the world, but i never thoguht about. why. Jehovah, though, we'll definitely be loving and take into account the fact that we came from this lazy world and help honesthearted ones to be hard workers, just as he helps spiritually lazy ones to work harder in serving him. By the way, Mike, I know a great diet you can try!
It's also so symbolic that America is the fattest country in the world. THe richest and most prosperous nation, glutted with the wealth of the earth. While so many other nations starve, we throw away food. The New World will be so different.
WELLLLL...being healthy and being fit, is only a plus to you,, so i very much so encourage it! And if your doing it for the benifit of you well then kudos, but those who work and there lives are consumed in health and fitness, seen by the world, are wasting there time! THE END
