REAL - Reduce stress Exercise Adequate sleep Lower caloric intake

Trying to walk 1 mile 3x a week. Only made it twice this week. The heat is tiring and makes sleep less restful. Will start using protein shakes again but want to try them in the evening instead of the morning. 

Thank Goodness It's Sunday

Brain Dump

I have the right to defend myself, but you don't have the right to defend yourself. I can do insider trading, but you can't. I have the right to my truth, but you don't have the right to yours. Hypocrisy is running rampant.

Headline: Can we save the planet by shrinking the economy? 

Wait...what? 

WE cannot save the planet. The planet belongs to God. God did it right the first time. We can mess things up, but we cannot frustrate the plans of God. Pretending we have that kind of power is arrogant, prideful, and frankly insane or at least incredibly stupid. 

However, we can destroy human life by pretending we can save the planet by shrinking the economy. 

Dear God, please deliver us from evil and willful ignorance.

You don't need to read the other books; just fun details for those who read them all.
