Independence

There are many categories of independence. Tomorrow or today, depending on when you are viewing this post, we celebrate our political independence.

There is also financial independence and emotional independence to name two of many, but one that you MUST consider now is your ability to live independently.

I used to say that what one does in their 20s 30s and 40s determines what he or she will be able to do in their 70s 80s and 90s, now I fear that what happens to us as children also determines this.

So on this day of Independence, when we celebrate freedom, remember, the ability to live on your own for the most years of your life has everything to do with your weight and your physical activity level.. Today.
