Firstly I would like to apologise for not having posted anything for so long, but I have been trying to get my head around the crazy behaviour we are being exposed to everywhere.  We are all entitled to think whatever we like about the current situation, and many of us will have differing ideas about the Virus, is it natural or was it engineered, or is there something more sinister lurking in the background, but for how long are we going to be able to voice our opinions without censorship? Censorship is already happening on some of the social media sites when it comes to vaccines and vaccinations. There is one thing that is abundant at present and that is fear, but why? Why are people being made to feel afraid, maybe this quote from Paulo Coelho throws some light on it “If you want to control someone, all you have to do is to make them feel afraid.”

In my life there has never been a time when our diet has been more important in strengthening our immune system with a healthy gut microbiome than now. The best way to stay safe around this virus is with our natural defences, our immune system and a little help with some Vitamin c, but how do we tune-up our immune system? The first thing is to cut out sugar in all its forms especially high fructose corn syrup, and get used to reading food labels, just as a pointer there are 56 different names for sugar used on food labels. How can we possibly get round this problem with food labelling, and the answer is simple don’t eat processed food, just single ingredients and make it yourself. So you are going to spend more time in the kitchen but can you really afford to put a price on your health especially now. Just for a minute think about this, why are some of the people exposed to the virus getting sick and dying, and others hardly even getting effected, it has to come down to the strength of their immune system. Of course there are those of us, who are already sick, and the virus is the final straw, but is the virus shown as a contributory factor, or the main cause, and I think we all know the answer to that one.

Let’s just quickly look at what we have been told to do, stay indoors, is that really healthy, or would you be better off in the sunshine boosting your Vitamin D and doing some deep breathing exercises, but of course at the same time keeping your social distancing. Wear a mask whenever you go out, but how do we expel toxins from  our bodies, through bowl movements, urine, sweat, oh yes through our breath, so you breath out expelling toxins, and then you can re-breath them? What about social distancing 2 metres, ok indoors that makes total sense, but outdoors it’s a complete nonsense, what if it is a windy day, then 10 metres might not be enough. I think that in the end we are ALL going to come face to face with this virus in whatever form it would have mutated into, and social distancing or a face mask are not going to save you if your immune system is weak.

We know that our diet plays a big role in strengthening our immune system, but what about the things that can suppress it, well obviously poor diet and a sedentary life style, but also anxiety and stress play a big role. As I said earlier there is an abundance of fear everywhere, and it’s not surprising, every time you turn on a television the news is all negative. We are constantly told how many more people have died, and how bad things can get if we don’t conform and stay at home, all negative, so how about some positive, the numbers who have recovered, or how many that have not got sick at all. This constant bombardment of negativity is causing the stress and anxiety and generating fear, add to that the lockdown and isolation which is totally unnatural and stressful for some especially the elderly living on their own, then people are going to get sick, and the damaged caused by this could generate problems for years to come.

I think it is pretty obvious that we are going to be living with restrictions for the foreseeable future, maybe not to the present level but while we have sociable distancing there are going to be queues, and along with them stress. One of the things we are being told is that there are going to have to be restrictions in place until we have a vaccine? What does this actually mean, I know there are some States in the USA where vaccination is becoming compulsory, but surely while we are still free beings we must have the personal choice as to what we allow to be pumped into us?

I had intended to make the point with this posting, that if we look after our own general health and wellbeing, and strengthen our immune system we must have the right to be able to accept or reject any form of vaccination. With the happenings of the last couple of weeks I want to expand this article to make a few points of my own. The other day I was called a Filthy White Racist because I disagreed with the current slogan Black Lives Matter, but they didn’t want to listen to my reasons why I had said it. What happened to George Floyd is way beyond disgusting, and of course Black Lives Matter, so do Brown Lives and Coffee coloured Lives and Yellow lives, and even White lives, everybody has the right to LIFE If this is going to be a turning point in our history then surely we have to look beyond ourselves, because every creature on this planet has that same right to life. Is it right that someone can demonstrate about human rights, then go home and collect a high power rifle, then go off to the woods and shoot a Deer or any other animal for sport, or a line of men with shotguns killing birds driven into the air by beaters and calling themselves Sportsmen?

There have been millions of voices shouting about the injustice caused to George Floyd, but possibly if only one voice had gone to his rescue, to make the point to those four officers that they were killing him he might still be alive, but sadly we cannot change what has been. What we were yesterday has made us what we are today, there are cries here in the UK about our past and links to slavery, but that is our HISTORY and we cannot change it, and pulling down statues is not going to change anything, it makes far more sense to leave them where they are, and make it clear for everybody what they represent. If you start removing statues and changing the names of Streets, what is next do you start destroying all the books with a reference to this past, then you could trace any surviving relatives and punish them for the deeds of their past relatives?

Of all the species on this planet we are the only ones that have the ability to make changes for the betterment of all, yet we are the most destructive. We are the only species on this planet that will kill for sport, or torture and humiliate an animal for entertainment and profit, or watch a pair of dogs tear each other apart in a pit so they can bet on the outcome, and still call ourselves civilised? If people want to protest why not protest against modern slavery, for the young women being bought and sold into the sex industry, or the young children being passed around and abused by paedophile rings, or the people being slaughtered because they have differing political views, or religious beliefs, these are all worthwhile causes but I don’t see many wanting to do anything about it. What I am seeing are politicians trying to make political gain out of the current situation, and that just about sums up where we are. If there is truly going to be a turning point then it needs to go way beyond Black Lives Matter, it needs to look at the systematic destruction of the rain forests and wild life habitats, it needs to look at the pollution in our oceans and seas, and the poisons being sprayed over farmlands and our food to produce greater profits, and the injustices that are occurring every day all over the planet. When we start to deal with all of this then we can start to talk about change…..
