2015 has to be a better year.

   2015 is here. How did it happen so quickly? Are we any better? healthier? richer?
 We talk about health more now, that's for sure. We have more "organic" (who knows what it means really?) stuff around.
We(generally speaking, I don't) still smoke a lot. Poor smokers are being pushed around by legislation. Soon they probably have to go to the Moon to smoke (he-he), not that I pity them. When they stuff their lungs with foul smoke, they stuff mine too if I happen to be around.
 Sometimes on a bus stop I have to step aside quite far from the actual stop in order not to breathe the smelly poisonous whiff.
  People do not see the connection.They think they will be healthy forever and cancer is something that happens to other people. Well, when you've got a cancer it's kind of late to quit. Why not do it now?
  Well, procrastination is a big problem, or laziness, I don't know what is more here in effect. I do not smoke but I have my share of bad food.  Bad food is your enemy. It's like a terrorist inside your body. I like it fast and fatty, and then suddenly there is just too much of me in this world.
  When you eat for two and do not exercise, very soon you have two of you in one person. You need two chairs to sit on a bus or anywhere else and lots of fabric to make your clothing...
   Once I was sitting on a bus in front sit and this lady that you would call very obese came on.  I was very tired and did not want to get up to give her an extra sit. One sit close to mine was free but I thought, 'no way you can fit in there and I am older than you anyway, I am not getting up for you.'  Never mind, she came close to me turned around and sat right on me, expecting probably that I will get up for her! I freed myself somehow from her enormous rear end,very annoyed and embarrassed. But she was not embarrassed, not in the least. She even said thank you to me! That Canadian sense of entitlement...
  Well I think I stepped away from my topic. I hope 2015 will be better. I hope we will learn to be smarter and healthier. That we will be more diligent with our money and food, more careful with our credits and more vigilant toward people we call Canadians...
   Last year showed very clearly that we cannot trust everybody. Some people clearly come to Canada for bad reasons and we have to remember that. No more night walks for me. I do not believe in safety in Canada anymore. I do not want to end up with my head cut off as an scary example to the public. Terrorism used to target rich and powerful. Now everybody is at risk. I hate terrorism, but it's a fact of life now. So, try to be healthy, happy, and prosperous for a change. We all need that I am sure.
Happy New Year to everybody! Stay safe.
