Genes play a role but do not dictate all.

Your arteries are muscles and need to be put through routine exercise to remain elastic in order to withstand and respond to the demands put upon it.

If you run to catch a bus, your body knows it, and increases the blood. Thus, oxygen flows to the muscular system to furnish the increased need.

And without routine exercise, arteries become brittle and will not stretch upon increased demand of blood flow and the blood pressure will go up, too. Therefore, small incremental exercise will “stretch” the arteries and allow them to handle what is given.

Also your weight can play a large role in blood pressure. Consider this: You are watering a plant with a hose. You will need low pressure in the hose to supply enough water to the plant, if there was a pillow (little body mass) resting on the hose. You will need high pressure, if you were watering a plant with a sandbag (a lot of body mass) resting on the hose.

So a routine exercise program and monitoring your weight can play a major role in your blood pressure and where it needs to be.

We are being treated?

Well, maybe it’s time to look in the mirror, to find the cause.

Because we actually teach people how to treat us, by the way we treat them.

If we treat people poorly, it’s inevitably, what we get in return, and it’s the same when we treat people nice…nice is what we get back.

It’s even is true with animals. Love them, and we get love in return…just as we get a mean dog when we treat a dog mean.

But tough people do.

Looking back on our tough times from the past, we can see that the tough times made us stronger and in most cases, the really tough situations, have allowed us to change course and ultimately, were really blessings in disguise.

If everything were easy, there would be no resistance and with out resistance, we would get lazy, as our effort would not be needed, and our “game” would become weak.

Therefore we must stay strong, and view any situation which comes our way, as an opportunity for us to open up new doors of the future, and let the past be the past.

So in our future, it’s not the tough times we focus upon, it’s the opportunities that will come to be, that needs to be within our vision.

You know, the new ones with the pedestals…just a metal box, maybe with a drawer, for at least $200 more…each. Designed so you don’t have to bend over.

The day you start making decisions upon moving less is the day you start aging a little more.

PS. That also goes with parking spaces folks.
