Sugar, real sugar cane, sweetness from fruits as fructose or sugar as sucrose. What we thirst for, the carbohydrate that tickles our fancy, the sweetness that hangs over but not as headache, a sweetness of love, of real good loveable sugar, white sugar or/and brown sugar. What we crave, chunky chocolates, dark or semi, milk chocolates, imported chocolates. Rum filled chocolates. Salivation as sure as Pavlo's dog, the dog who was taught to salivate at the sound of a bell.
How unhealthy all this is you may say!! Yes, when you isolate sugar and eat it without a protein it is very dangerous. What must we do to nullify the side effects of sugar, effects like Diabetes, a high Triglyceride level. To be able to eat sugar and to not make sugar an enemy, but instead to make it your friend we must eat proteins with the sugar, proteins like nuts or dairy or meat.
If we eat apple slices, at the same time we must eat cheese. Cheese or another meat will provide us with the protein that will nullify the bad effects of sugar, but still raise your Triglyceride levels to a healthy level, so not to feel jittery or shaky caused by a lack of sugar in the body.
Ice cream is a healthy food all around, it has sugar but is accompanied by milk products which are proteins. Take it light on the chocolate syrup and caramel or strawberry syrup so not to get too much sugar.
Beans are another good source of protein.
In the morning we can eat an egg which is a protein and eat it with sugared juices or oatmeal which is also a carbohydrate. If you fear the cholesterol in an egg eat just the whites and not the yolk.
If we eat chocolate bars, and they are accompanied with nuts for protein, then this is healthy. Bars like Pay Day, Snickers, Baby Ruth, or peanut M&Ms, or any other chocolate bar that combines proteins of nuts with sugar. The nuts take down the sugar level but still you get enough sugar for a good taste and a boost of your metabolism.
You can quit chocolate altogether and just eat fruit for its sugar, but with the fruit eat simultaneously a piece of cheese or a glass of milk, or cottage cheese, or other protein.
Yes, we can make sugar our best friend but we must allow sugar to have a companion in a protein we also eat next to it.
Love the taste of sugar? I do too! I actually do not know anyone anywhere who does not crave the taste of sugar. Now we know how to eat it and not to cause harm to our bodies.
Thank God!!
What is science, what is religion. What is the difference, are some religions more scientific than others? Is science all there is and religion has disappeared at the closure of the tidal waves of the Sea of Reeds? Is that as far as it went, unbelievable after that?
To have a son who is a sun, to have a Sunday to worship a Son, not to circumcise a Son, why? It is painful and medically risky says your Jewish doctor. Waiting till 6 months after his birth, not following Halakah, Jewish rules of an 8th day brit milah. Science, medical science, disapproves of this brit milah, the infants life being at risk. Even Rabbis postponing circumcision of their own sons.
Sunny or sonny weather preferred over the darkness of cloudy, windy, London moors weather, umbrellas to keep us dry in a rainstorm. What is a rainstorm? How does it happen? Does God cause rainstorms? If lightening hits your enemy on his golf course, we say of course there is God! And of course He could have a son! And a son is a sun, not a rainy day but we do not go thirsty sucking blood.
Temperatures measured carefully, stones the size of yellow bricks placed in a pyramid one on top of the other, Moses kills an Egyptian who was beating a Hebrew slave, his family, an Israelite, banned and excommunicated to become the leader of the Jewish Hebrew people, slaves no more.
Learning to eat locusts in time of a famine when there are no green crops, just the rhythm and melodic sound of locusts as they climb trees, crickets strumming playing violins on their backs.
People not judged by the quantity of their wealth, but instead by the quality of their deeds of lovingkindness. St. Peter at the gateway of Purgatory, will he let you in? Where will you end up? Having followed at least ten Commandments? Have you prayed for the forgiveness of your sinful transgressions? Are you forgiven? Who needs to forgive you? Your victim of course and God Himself. Can you forgive yourself? Living instead with guilt so severe it keeps you awake at night??
What is science and what is religion? Are they separate? Can one exist without the other? Which one to be existent and which one not?
Darwin? Yes, and Black Holes? Yes. Electrons, Neutrons and Protons. Rings around Saturn. Mars the God of War? Venus the Goddess of Love? Astrology or Witchcraft? Superstition. The day you were born or the day you died? Gasoline filled car vehicles or solar sun-run cars needing no gas. Solar ovens not electric to heat up muffins and cook your food. Cooking without a flame? Kosher cooking on Shabbat under sunlight, no prohibition, the death of "cholent" the Kiddush Shabbat meal no more?
Follow in the footsteps of Jungian psychology and forget and forgive Freudian psychology, as old as an old oak tree, a tree to be cut down, not an Evergreen that stays green forever.
Christmas and Chanukah? Merged? Using an Evergreen Christmas Tree as also a Chanukah Bush? Not debatable, an Evergreen is ever green, forever green. And the seas are Green. Jealousy is green, teeth that are not brushed every night turn green. Mold is green. Emeralds are green. Green is good and green is bad. If it is your favorite color, that is your human right and we will not take this away from you.
Women have rights and we will continue to protest for our rights as we march in the streets and go to court for divorces. Single women, divorced women, widowed women, all dancing to the opera The Merry Widow, women who are independent. Women with advanced university degrees in fields of science.
But what is your religion?? We can say, we don't discuss religion or politics. Why? How many Holocausts will there be? Do we know the one past is the last of them? You are not angry, you are just hungry? ? Taxations for the benefit of the poor being decreased? Lots of angry and hungry? When will you ever learn. Ten percent shared with the poor, but just in the vineyard of grapes fallen off the vine? To must become a Ruth who sleeps at the feet of her husband to go to work everyday to bring money to her mother-in-law and to give her a son? When she is bitter and does not want you in the first place? She tells you to go back to your Mother?
Sounds reasonable to me. Women with their mothers and with the love of their children, as Single Moms or not.
The Religion of Science. Or Science without religion? All phony baloney?
Ever had a chest pain and you did not know if it was serious or not? Wondered if it was a heart attack or just a pulled muscle in the chest area?
If a muscle pulls in the chest area, and it is a sharp pain, not a dull ache, it probably is not a heart attack. What to do anyway just in case, to make positively sure that if it could indeed be a heart attack, you must swallow aspirin immediately. If you have baby aspirin take two.
What else could it be if you have pains in the chest? Maybe not to be a heart attack, because real heart attacks cause pain in the shoulders, upper back and down the arms.
It could be reflux, heartburn, in which case you could take meds for it, so it does not shoot pains into your esophagus and cause you to vomit.
Chest pains can be caused by stress, anxiety, and not be heart related, but instead be caused by excessive worry. In this case, calm down, get rest immediately.
Should you go to the ER every time you get a chest pain? When you feel the pain in your arms and shoulders, go immediately to the ER.
If you are driving and get chest pains, pull over to the side of the road and stop driving. Wait for the pains to subside and then drive home, go straight to bed, and sleep it off.
Eat right and exercise is what the doctors say is the cure for heart disease. Lower healthy blood pressure on a low salt diet, healthy cholesterol level with less meat. Daily walks. Not to need to run at an older age, walking in fresh air instead and eating plenty of greens.
Change your fate. Take a potential heart attack and cure it, cures of love to ease your heart, love for everyone, love even for those who are your adversaries, for as says in The Psalms, "They will soon wither away like yellow grass and disappear".
His name they said was Jesus. His father Joseph refused to name him Emanuel even though the prophecy was that the true Messiah would be born with the name Emanuel.
Then we find out that this man who was to be called a god was born out of an adulterous relationship between Mary his mother and Tobias a Roman soldier. And even if this is something we want to deny, not to believe, not to cast ill feelings upon him or his parentage, but then they said his father was God, and that he was born the son of God.
We are all children of God, Jesus was not the only one born having this relationship as a "son" of God. The teachings of Jesus are to disobey the teachings of the true Father, the true God, so what kind of a son is this! A son who disobeys his father Adonai and this is why he is revered?
Can we as Jews forgive Jesus so we do not carry a grudge with us as heavy as a backpack of books?
The Muslims whose prophet Mohammed is revered because he killed eight hundred Jews in one swipe! And the Muslims love Jesus as well, and revere him as their prophet too. How can killings of Jews or anyone for that matter, be approved in either religion! Are the Jews the only people who believe in "We Shall Not Murder"?
Yes, we are to respect others' religions but that does not mean we can approve of these religions that propagate murder. Can we as Jews defend ourselves and fight back if someone tries to kill us, and say they are killing us in the name of the Quran? Or in the name of Jesus? Can we forgive Jesus, and Mohammed for that matter, for living a life to disobey justice, to kill?
Can we stay united in our Judaism with other Jews and not sway back and forth like a broken palm branch to and fro between this cult and that cult?
Jonestown murders? Juices that were poisoned and wiped out everyone, everyone killed at a party saying it was done in the name of their religion!
Don't ever let anyone take away your music. If you are a Jew, stay a Jew, and always find your way back into Judaism no matter how enticing what someone else has, to instead be who you want to be. Do you know what you want?
My Father Emanuel Ginsburg told me "Jews do not believe in Jesus." And that is that, there is no more. End of story.
Call upon Avraham and Sarah, our true parents, love Leah and Rachel, adore Jacob and Isaac. Sing to Rivkah. Worship Adonai and only Adonai.
Never forget this song, kiss it in your memory as you eat and thank God for your food and for everything he has ever given you.
Love Adonai, and keep the peace. Can we forgive those who dishonor Him? This is not a requirement.
Psalms 37 and 38 tell us those who dishonor Adonai will wither like yellow grass and disappear from our existence and we will be done with their wickedness.
Leave it all in God's Hands. Love those who love you and protect them, love your family even if they cannot feel true love, love and peace to all, who is "all" this is you and me, and anyone who wishes to feel true love, love of humans for humans, love of a true God, a God who created the Universe, a God to be loved and respected. The God, not "a" God, there is only One God and we are all His children, we are all the sons and daughters of God.
Amein, in the Name of Adonai. Period. Selah.
Reasons to be glorious on Hanukkah, how to connect with The One True Almighty God, our Father of Avraham and Sarah, our Creator of all things, our electric energy to our Lord, the reasons for us to stay alive, the Lord, the reason for us to be, to be or not to be, if we can be with Him, we are and will continue to be the best we can be.
Look NOW! Where is God? God is not where there is blood in meat. We know this as our Torah tells us this, to have eaten Kosher for lunch? God was in our food! Our body cells are pure, our blood is clean. No, we are not what is in our dumpsters out back of our houses, we ask God to keep us clean. Do you mean all we need to do is keep our hands clean and our diet Kosher? We need to ask God to help us with these tasks, it is when He does, that we are then connected with Him.
Just say "Dear God..."
Judaism on Sundays? What did God give us Sundays to do? A Sunday, the first day of our week, a day to study. What can we study?
Print out daily lessons from Chabad.org and read them. Which lessons are the best to read?
Chumash with Rashi, Tehellim, Daily Tanya, Daily Mitzvah, and Hayom Yom.
You can never read too much or study too much. If your eyes get tired, rest them. Turn down the brightness of the lamps. Actually, in the Orthodox Talmud, the Talmud tells us not to never study by lamplight, not at night, when we need lamps. So, not to study after sunset.
To study on a satiated stomach after eating, about an hour after eating, when your stomach is done churning your meal. To be sure to eat meat, at least once a day, or fish, and to have this protein in your digestive system, to study upon good sustenance. If you are hungry you will not be able to comprehend the context of the holy Words of The Torah. Meat? Yes, but only Kosher meat. That means meat without blood, meat that was blessed upon its slaughter. Never to mix meat with milk. The Torah commands this, not for a kid (goat) to be eaten in its Mother's breast milk.
So, now you are set up. You know what to study and what to eat, when to eat, why to eat, why to study, why to eat and study during the day and not at night.
Have a ball studying what turns you from a wolf into a lamb. Being a lion who rests in a meadow of the greenest of gardens, the Garden of Eden, laying down next to and with the soft sweetness of a beautiful lamb.
Tinsel on trees and lighted evergreen branches, gifts galore under this tree? Are you Jewish and asked to participate in this gift giving? Are there items you receive as gifts that are rituals of other religions as Christian Christmas gifts to you? Can we turn down these gifts? Should we make a simitz (a big deal) about this and call it disrespect? Each year, year after year, you receive Christmas gifts, so what to do? We need to work with those people who do not understand The Laws of Judaism, that Jews do not celebrate Christmas, instead we celebrate Hanukkah.
So, we can indeed keep these gifts if you want the neutral ones, and see them as Hanukkah gifts, not to observe them as Christmas gifts. You cannot yell and scream and jump up and down because the gift giver each year uses Christmas time as a time to proselyte Christianity to you when you are a committed religious Jew. Each year take it as another year to heal from disrespect and to realize the gift giver is in darkness, cause as much as you try to work with him/her the same occurrence happens, and what can we do?
Ask our Holy God to see us through another winter season, a time to be warm and well fed. To be in prayers for those who do not have a relationship with Adonai our true God. They instead worship the rebel Jesus when what they have is a choice not to worship him but to love the true God, the same God of Jesus, our Father Hashem. To try to understand they come from a lack of the knowledge base that teaches people true lovingkindness.
Can we give a gift back in this situation? Jacob the Torah Prophet did, he met his brother Esau's armies with loads of beautiful gifts!! He is our example to follow.
Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Happy Kwanza!
