If more teachers did that then. well, perhaps most English teachers are afraid how badly they write will be discovered by their students.Adam Byrn "Adamus" Tritthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03146942018135434361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30555458.post-12596073846542550502007-10-25T16:56:00.000-04:002007-10-25T16:56:00.000-04:00Isn't that the one you read to us last year?

In 11 ...I am reading this in bed, with a head cold. In 11 days, between Thanksgiving (on the road, 7-hour drive twice) and said cold, I have worked out only once and attended one yoga class. It is my nearly daily exercise that makes my eating habit possible, and as I have not adjusted my eating, I frustratingly feel myself growing...<BR/><BR/>I am absolutely fascinated by food issues (and food cultures) and food psychology and how some people are offended if they can't control what you eat. As well as how judgmental they can be if your physique shows that perhaps you have accepted all their generous offers.<BR/><BR/>Very much enjoyed reading this.Indigo Buntinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11387698096732697805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30555458.post-1164726204066029312006-11-28T10:03:00.000-05:002006-11-28T10:03:00.000-05:00Twin,If I did that, I would so feel I was wasting ...Twin,<BR/><BR/>If I did that, I would so feel I was wasting food. But, that said, it is a good tactic if I am asked twice. Take it and dump it or put it on the table and leave it. Good idea.<BR/><BR/>A very chi gung answer.Adam Byrn "Adamus" Tritthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03146942018135434361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30555458.post-1164726112462710712006-11-28T10:01:00.000-05:002006-11-28T10:01:00.000-05:00Maya, yes.

One of many, to be sure.<BR/><BR/>Now, the middle way deal with the concept that EVERYTHING is Maya. Maya is, so the world is. the intersection is how we view it though the filters of our attachments and ideas. We react accordingly and Maya changes, the world changes, and we react again. Thus the circle.Adam Byrn "Adamus" Tritthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03146942018135434361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30555458.post-1164721016809057222006-11-28T08:36:00.000-05:002006-11-28T08:36:00.000-05:00Mirror?

Not " No Thanks." Not "Yes Thanks." Just "Thanks."<BR/><BR/>And then I do whatever the heck I intended to in the first place. Eat it, don't eat it, put it down, throw it away, give it to a friend. I just really don't care what people who are pushing stuff on me that I don't want think. I'm cooler than they are anyway, so I let it go.<BR/><BR/>But then I've always been one of the most laid back humans I've ever met....<BR/><BR/>Howls and Hugs,<BR/>Twin/Wulf<BR/><BR/>PS: And another point of congruence... my youngling just this morning informed me that she wanted me to live forever.

It isn't enough to stop me. <BR/><BR/>So I split them with someone. Then I split another. Make sense? Nope.<BR/><BR/>I too will have perfect weeks and then "mess up" being too hungry to make a good choice or think only one can't hurt and then, again, can't imagine doing it right again. How did I do so well? How is it possible?<BR/><BR/>Then a bit of brain clicks and another good day (sometimes, unfortunately, several days later) shows me I can do it.<BR/><BR/>A mirror should be all the proof I need but, alas, the physical world and its cause and effect, its proofs hold no sway with me.Adam Byrn "Adamus" Tritthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03146942018135434361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30555458.post-1164688731701639552006-11-27T23:38:00.000-05:002006-11-27T23:38:00.000-05:00I have no problem when others foist food upon me. ...I have no problem when others foist food upon me. Them I can say no to. Where I fail more often than not is when part of my brain tells me it needs chocolate, or bread, or sugar. I can go several exemplary weeks eating lean meat and lots of leafy greens, and then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like "I love you" to a Red Lobster garlic cheddar biscuit.Sewa Yolemehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05736250662604561083noreply@blogger.com
