Taking Care of Yourself

Do we know how to take care of ourselves?

We understand our basic needs of shelter, food, water, and warmth and work hard to supply what is necessary to survive.

Do we know how to take care of ourselves?

We read books, listen to reports, and discuss among ourselves how we should exercise and eat better, but never do.

Do we know how to take care of ourselves?

We form partnerships and create families to care for and hopefully in later years care for us, but this is not guaranteed.

Do we know how to take care of ourselves?

We build huge palaces to our excessive behavior, forage on abundance of fuel, and spend outrageous amounts of our hard earned meager pay to taxes providing organizations to be created and expanded into a web of maddening bureaucracy offering assistance to the individual yet bogged down in the mire.

Do we know how to take care of ourselves?
