For centuries now information has been passed down
as true only to be discovered later as being a myth
a non truth passed on for benefit of some people.
Even today, in so many fields, we are feed information
which is meant in many cases to benefit the one who is
sharing the information and not the people they're sharing
it with. It seems to be wide spread through many areas of
society including politics, corporate advertising, medicine
among others. Which I find makes it very difficult to make
wise choices. Control and greed has played major roles
for centuries in shaping our societies and I believe it's time
in the 21st Century that we open our minds and not just
blindly accept what we're feed. We need to spend the time
exploring for what is true. Being a diabetic, I've learned
to not believe everything I read or hear from so called health
professionals. Many do not keep up with cutting edge research
or have narrow biased views. I've come to feel through 14 years
dealing with my wife's or my illness that a patient who blindly listens
to their doctor might be putting themselves in harm's way. Our lives
are very busy but we need to think for ourselves and not
just accept what we're feed.
