<br />
Genesis Chapter 14 <br />
<br />
23.That I will not take from a thread even to a shoe - latchet. The Hebrews have an elliptical form of making oath, in which the imprecation of punishment is understood. In some places, the full expression of it occurs in the Scriptures, “The Lord do so to me and more also,” (1 Samuel 14:44.) Since however, it is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God, in order that the obligation of oaths may be the more binding, this abrupt form of speech admonishes men to reflect on what they are doing; for it is just as if they should put a restraint upon themselves, and should stop suddenly in the midst of their discourse. This indeed is most certain, that men never rashly swear, but they provoke the vengeance of God against them, and make Him their adversary. Lest thou shouldst say. Although these words seem to denote a mind elated, and too much addicted to fame, yet since Abram is on this point commended by the Spirit, we conclude that this was a truly holy magnanimity. But an exception is added namely that he will not allow his own liberality to be injurious to his allies, nor make them subject to his laws. For this also is not the least part of virtue, to act rightly, yet in such a manner, that we do not bind others to our example, as to a rule. Let every one therefore regard what his own vocation demands, and what pertains to his own duty, in order that men may not prejudge one another according to their own will. For it is a moroseness too imperious, to wish that what we ourselves follow as right, and consonant with our duty, should be prescribed as a law to others. <br />

(sigh)...</p>
<p dir="ltr">You need to meet and be strong about the cycle of life ending and then follows a new beginning and you proactively define as much as you can the new beginning according to your life's pursuit of happiness and reality constraints of time and other factors. </p>
<p dir="ltr">You must not indulge in wasteful emotional negativity creating costly liabilites ill affordable but be positive and know nature's laws prevail despite our best attempts to control otherwise. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Death is consequence of life and both are inextricably coupled. I have tried to deal with death and snatched away from the grim reaper many times even my corporeal self from his greedy grasp: born puppies, puppies laid on and actually dead resuscitating them, etc, and know sometimes you can restore and renew life but never avoid concluding the cycle of life ending finally at some point when life is not compatable with physical or mental demands of continuation of living. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I too have lost loved ones and remember the sorrow and suffering of being alive after being aware of death's extraction either unexpectedly and sudden or delayed and lingering helpless to alter or prevent what I had in my life and loved and left only with memories of what once had been. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Life is never a given only a precious blessing and never lasts before leaving us at a time we always lament and grieve trying to heal the vacancy in our world death created.</p>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With app My Fitness Pal play with it before you eat it, learn all you can about it, and how it enhances your total daily food selections. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The more you play with selected nutrient views of your planned meals for the day, the more nutritional value you add to your diet while controlling limited calories and portions allowed for the day balanced with exercise you should add also. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With this app, the many different views of a food or entire days food educates your mind to appreciate what you choose to eat more than by just satisfying your hunger or taste adding abstractly the intellectual appreciation of the unique beauty of certain foods thereby increasing your health and beauty, playing as an art form with foods' balance, composition, combinations, variety, and values. </span><br />

The co-dependent owl says... You, You, You...<br />
the bipolar owl says ... Up, Down, Up.....<br />
the anti-
social owl says nothing but acts menacing....<br />
the megalomaniac
owl?...says nothing expects submission, subservient offerings, and is
named Trump. <br />
And the passive aggressive owl says 'see what you made me
do.'...also Trump...<br />
in fact all the owls are Trump, and insanely
wealthy. <br />
Disassociative identity disorder owl says ...Me, the other me,
any another me...Trump 1, Trump 2, Trump 3, all Republicans!!! <br />
If
elected President, he will be the most insane and most wealthy ever I
win that prestigious privileged paycheck for life but also most likely
to be assassinated in office by one of his many enemies of his making
during the campaign. </div>

For that reason and many others, I am motivated to continue my </span><a href="http://blog.lafitness.com/tag/how-to-use-exercise-equipment/"><span style="font-size: large;">http://blog.lafitness.com/tag/how-to-use-exercise-equipment/</span></a><span style="font-size: large;"> : <br />I start by working out on my favorite exercise equipment, ending with the treadmill where I can monitor the time, distance, and my heart rate then I shower to go relax in the Jacuzzi, swim in the spacious, uncrowded pool , participate in the aquatics class, and lastly, I shower again to remove the chlorine from skin and suit, dry off in the sauna (180 degrees F) dress in street clothes and am now ready to go home to fix my breakfast which I can enjoy knowing I have completed another day's fitness regimen. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">There are many at the gym who are beautifully fit, in their prime zone of good health, but there are also others who need to self improve like myself because they are overweight, lacking muscle tone, elderly or needing physical rehabilitation,but all are there to improve their physical self and wellness. Each day I go, I try to do a little more, and also I am feeling more comfortable with myself in-this-out-of-my-comfort-zone-environment. With all the mirrors on the wall, I can face reality seeing my before and imagining my ideal self after image, both motivating me to keep exercising. I am actually enjoying my daily workout! I also have an online LA Fitness account logging in with my member id which enables me to check the weekly schedules, log my workouts, and track my time of attendance. Watch out Old Age because you are being challenged as I work to take my life towards improved physical well being (the mental health benefits from the physical workout as well as the self esteem and the peace of my soul). </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">"Would you be able to come to my home in NW Phoenix to select your puppy soon?

I have had text message responses that just give me a very insecure and negative feeling about someone who does not want to be a person but instead prefers numerical transient identifications. It may be ok for drug dealers and such, but is not acceptable for legitimate American citizen transactions especially where the innocent lives of puppies are in questionable status." </span></span><br />

Pekingese are not by any metric simple or superficial life beings. They have a centuries long history of relationships with humans, mankind's cultural conflicts, and have inherited their diverse roles in today's modern life. Once protected and valuable prized pets of Chinese royalty given the duty of being guardians of the courts ancestral spirits, they were brought (as stolen loot) to the Western world, they have changed with the times and countries creating what we see now in a variety of coat colors, textures, and individualities making each a valued pet Pekingese, the object of his owner's love and affection. To me they are living works of art created by man's love of beauty and art since the beginning of time."</span></span></span></span><br />

I believe all life is equally valuable, but not all life envelopes the same form or has same function. After a life is created, diversity of development determines life's role and purpose within its environment defining its limitations, developing its ability to influence or affect other life within its sustainable reach, and hoping for harmony with other life allowing a natural balance of life to emerge (evolution), an inherent hierarchy that symbiotically provides a reality both peaceful and productive. Each life adaptation occurs for the purpose of achieving optimum life potential performance and peaceful non conflicting coexistence within any given ecology for a stronger more efficient and sustainable environmental ecology.<br />

Continue to be or be a has been; to be, or not to be, are merely the end points of life and what exists in between those end points of life is not a question but an answer to your life's calling.Yolanda Martinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18316433717583901399noreply@blogger.com0
