I know it's been a really, really long time since I've posted. There just hasn't been anything interesting enough for me to say. Diabetes is what it is and I'm in a good place with it emotionally these days, plus nothing interesting enough to share has come to mind lately. It's funny too because at times like these I feel a little superstitious, like I don't want to call too much attention to the good feelings. It's like they might just slip away if I talk about them too much. Silly I know, but the truth nonetheless.
But still there are things I come across that I want to capture in this place of focus and health. Things that remind me of how and why I choose to take my diabetes care so seriously. Like this wonderful video about slow food and alice waters below. It reminds me that a healthy approach, a mindful awareness of health is around us all the time. I can tap into it any time, regardless of the fact that I have a chronic illness. Good food, good eating is good for everyone, even me, especially me, given my diabetes. It's good for me to remember this, which in turn, helps me take my diabetes a little bit more in stride.
Which is a good thing any way you look at it!
Thanks for the post and the info. I missed that segment on 60 Minutes and it was really interesting. Have missed your posts ... check every day! Glad you are back and writing and keeping us filled with knowledge.
