Isn't Science GREAT

Nearly every day a scientist comes up with some wonderful news that something we are doing is going to kill us. Today it's drinking causes cancer, particularly in women. Brilliant - another thing we must not do. Add it to the foods that will kill us and the smoking and the overweight and the breathing the air in certain places and all the chemicals in our homes or in our food and there is sufficient to worry about to give us all a heart attack.
I've had the heart problems and at the time my cholesterol was very low, I was active and not overweight, so all the things that caused it I didn't fit in with.
Personally I think the biggest problem with our lives today is the number of warnings we get about everything. Scientists have to prove their worth to continue being employed and if they come up with a problem about some lifestyle thing, they are then employed for longer finding the cure. Some time ago we were told to go to work on on an egg, then they became very bad for us, so we are told to severely limit how many we have in a week. Now we're told that the research was wrong and eggs are in fact quite good for us. Wonderful, if we wait long enough all the bad things now will be the good things in the future.
Life is for living not worrying and, no matter how long any of us live, in the scheme of things it is a very short life. I believe in living it, enjoying it and making the most of the time. It doesn't matter to me how long I live. What matters is whether it is worth living. I am not going to let any scientist or government tell me what or how. If I die tomorrow I will have enjoyed my time on this earth and if I don't I will enjoy the days after. One thing I wont be doing is worrying about all the warnings that will come out in the days and years to come. I will be doing my best to make my www.tour-devon.com site the best source of info about the area I love.
I'm going to enjoy life, nature and the people I know and meet every day.
What are you going to do, worry yourself to death or not worry yourself and live happy?
There is one warning that I would take notice of if it were ever given. Scientists, politicians and so called experts are bad for your health, bad for your life and bad for your and the planets future.
Now it's time for my breakfast, think I'll have the same as usual. Cigarette,cup of tea and a good cough followed by a good fry up of 3 eggs, nice fatty streaky bacon and fried bread. Then a nice morning sat in front of the telly. Pop out for a few pints dinner time and sleep it off this afternoon. I will do another bit of the blog tomorrow - if I live that long.
PS next thing they will tell us is that sex is bad for us. Oh! hang on, I think they already have!!!
