Martha Stewart…ever hear of her? She’s a blowhard with a Pollyanna attitude. Her whole thing is how to teach us how to live. One of her biggest taglines is Martha Stewart Living. Rachael Ray…know who she is? She’s the happy-go-lucky chef that tells everybody how to cook simply. She always has a big goofy smile on her face that makes her look like Jack Nicholson as the Joker. She smiles a lot. You know her catchphrase? Yum! Speaking of people with big goofy smiles, what about Tony Robbins? He also has a giant smile with big choppers. Are those teeth even real? Tony teaches us how to live positively and how to turn bad things into good things. Ever watch The View? That’s another feel-good show for women. It’s a bunch of cackling hens. How about Sarah Palin? She’s another do-gooder with a gosh-dernit attitude. You know what all of these people have in common? We want to punch them in the face half the time. They’re always bubbly. They’re like a high school cheerleader on crack. I told you that to tell you this. It’s come to my attention from more than one source that I am negative. The fact that I’m negative can’t be good for my blog. But you know what? I disagree. You know what else disagrees? Google Analytics and StatCounter. Both show an increase on my blog between 30-35 percent every month. To put it simply, my blog has grown by leaps and bounds. You know who else was negative? Just about every famous comedian you can think of. You know why? Nobody wants to know that someone else had a great fucking day. We always want to know that someone else is a little more miserable than we are. I do this blog for one reason and one reason only. To tell the truth about health and fitness as I see it. I’ve been in the fitness game for over 30 years. I’ve done nothing else but this. I’ve seen things come and go five different times. I think I know what I’m talking about. In this world you have ups and downs, highs and lows, ebb and flow, black and white, positive and negative. If I haven’t learned anything else about energy I’ve learned this…you need both. A lot of people from around the world read this blog. I want to tell everyone that reads this blog from outside the United States something about this great country. We are free people. It’s what makes our country great. If you happen to be someone who doesn’t like what I’m writing, by all means stop reading it.
