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!

Where to from here? The Desert

There is no hope in the horizon. Engulfed in despair it’s easy to give in. However with the right attitude you CAN change ANY situation to your favour. It is the 3rd month of the year; very soon it will come to a close and with it perhaps you will be the shutting down your goals. You think, “What’s the point?” You have done all you could to materialize your dream; you have exhausted all avenues within your reach. You feel you are at a dead end. But what’s the point of giving up. What is the point of not doing anything? You do have a choice and the right decision is to keep at it. It does not matter if the sky may be grey for you. You might not have been born with a silver spoon in your mouth or with opportunities at your disposal. At your bleakest moment just remember, that the majority of millionaires and billionaires in the world are self made. Just like you and me they were once in your shoes. They struggled to pay their bills, some lost their homes and most were made redundant ...

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...

Where to, from here? -> The Wall

We're right at the beginning of the new year. You should be looking forward to it but you're not. You should be making some major changes that are so lacking in your character, but you're not. You should be taking the all important steps to bring stability and wipe away those debts but you don't. I hear you, it is not because you don't want to change things but you go on to explain that it's because you still don't have the tools to make the wrong in your life right. Last year you tried against all odd, eventhough you didn't have the so called tools or means to succeed, but you tried. You pulled yourself together and decided to change your LIFE! You had so much energy, so much drive. You had a few victories and these steered you on. Until, you came acoss some obtacles, you tried to look for the solution - to make this change happen- but none was within your reach. You knocked on doors until your knuckles turned white and bruised with fustration - mor...
