Have you become a Junkie?

When you have an immense build up of toxic waste in your system.  You usually feel sluggish, tired, worn out, burnt out and energy less. This is how you feel constantly until you decide to do something about it.  When I was young somehow my mother or grandmother would sense that I needed a "detox session". 

Decades later, my mom filled me in on how she "miracalously" knew when we needed some detoxing. These are the symptoms are she would pick on: smelly breath (despite brushing teeth twice  a day plus mouth washing), heavy, worn outeyes (even though having slept the recommended 8 hours) and smelly arm pits.

The remedy: using ucatho. This devise is a rounded rubber container with a plastic tip, it acts as a syringe which extracts some natural herbal stuff mixed with water that cleanse you from the inside from all toxins.  This is done by squeezing the rubber part, then the liquid comes out from the tip.  Its more or less like the European colonic. See our parents knew what they were doing, after all!  For centuries Africa was thought to be backward but in fact it was advanced in many ways especially medically...

We are bombarded on a daily basis by news, what the celebrities are up to, in fact in recent years celebrity news has managed to be classified as real news, emails, junk emails, junk mail, newspapers, magazines, gossip, unprofitable conversations,  facebook - ever so curious what others are doing, bebo, youtube, myspace, secular music and movies, and loads of other distractions. After years of being overwhelmed and feeding on all the media junk, the signs begin to show.  Yes it is junk - most of the news 99.9999 %  is bad news and that the way the media moguls want to keep it - that's another blog all together. 

Always taking in junk - media junk - we eventually have toxins in excess that's why we feeling spiritually sluggish.  In no time at all we have no time pray - to talk to God. No time to read the bible -  can't hear the voice of God instructing us.  Our eyes become heavy - we cannot pay attention to His instructions or keep our focus on Him, we start looking more to friends, the problems and the fact that we don't have time to spare to even go to church well because we are far too busy with friends and other "important" things.

One knows that they have an overflow of "toxins" when they start smelling funny.  They try to cover it up with "fragrant designer perfumes" - it does the trick for a short while but the stench starts creeping up again. Whenever they open their mouth - it's stinks - not physically but what they say is not beneficial but mostly causes carnage, cause wild fires wherever they go.  Their arm pits stink - not physically - but their behaviour, attitudes and character are in a downward spiral.

Romans 3:13
“Their talk is foul, like the stench from an open grave.Their tongues are filled with lies.”“Snake venom drips from their lips.”
 
So in these 21 days I decided to cut myself off and switch myself out from the media and other unbeneficial things.  For one aim, to nurture my relationship with my Creator! To rekindle the fire, to re-ignite the connection I formed with Him in 1999.  I was busy with useless things but now I'm busy with eternal things! Oh! What a Day!

Habits

There are good habits and there are bad habits.  Most of the time it's the bad habits that tend to infiltrate into our daily routines and they seem to stock to you stonger than superglue.  To take themout of your life takes more energy and determination than you can imagine. I read an article about habits in the Monthly FIA magazine which spoke about a young chap called Stefan who had struggled with a drinking problem for years.  His other bad habit was jumping from one girl to the next, as soon as he got what he wanted, he would move onto his next conquest. When he decided to change his habits, he realised that he had to change his environment first.  So he took a drastic decision of moving from sunny St Lucia to the icy cold England.  Leaving behind all his friends helped because they would have easily influenced him to go back to the destructive cycle of drinking and womanizing. You might be thinking well my bad habit does not hurt anyone.  I just arr...

Hello... Anybody There?

It's been a while, I know. Been meaning to write or at least upload my vlogs on here. Yet it has been me chasing time. Me against procrastination. Getting over the apparent wall, called the writers block. And the bottom line is: belief, self assurance and trusting your inner self. And above all trusting in God. For a while now, I have had the distinct urge to write, to document, to share my 2 cents with the world. Or a few who will somehow wonder onto this platform. So I decide right here, right now. To cut down dramatically my Netfliximg and chill time. And focus on my apparent calling. I have been put to the point of discomfort, when from time to time, I would hear deep from the inner realms of my being " write, go on, just write, you gotta write - now!"  Floating in and out of consciousness ideas and stories cry out to free themselves and be heard. Even if, just to seen by the write herself. Today I choose to brush aside the temporary discomfort of getting my w...

L I G H T

9/1/18 The above is the date when I wrote the first 3 and a half paragraphs.  As you might have read already.  I am trying to play catch up or clean up which ever way you may prefer to look at it. So months ago I wrote the following: Let there be light. The words spoken by God when we created heaven and earth. It's Monday been stuck indoors with a strong willed, independent, yet dependent 17 month old.This Monday, felt like a gloomy Monday, the kind of strangely grey foggy day.  The kind of grey that you, "can't shake off that sleepy feeling off" kind of Monday. Back in 2017, around the beginning of it actually, I had this kind of Monday on repeat for almost a week. So it felt a bit like dejavu. This is how a grey day looks like. One wakes up and gets swallowed up by chores, things to do, look after baby or babies, try to get a shower and use the toilet (yes, take a dump in peace and quite), make and eat food before the baby wakes up. And if love have a littl...
