speck and log

To change the world, change yourself. This is the wisdom I must embrace and implement. Late last night, I ate excessive amounts of greasy food at a chain restaurant, then went home and got in bed. I woke hours later, and forced myself to vomit. As I write this, I'm still paying the price of that foolish decision. Add to that the cigarettes I smoked, and the insufficient intake of water, and I'm one miserable stomach owning dude. And due to poor choices of activities, posture and too much inactivity, my back is throbbing with pain that shoots into my hips. I started this blog with the idea of inspiring myself to get active in social change, and it's working. I'm the first issue I must take on. If I don't improve my health and habits, I'll be of no use to any movement, social or bowel. I am my cause.
