Diabetes is NOT a "horrible disease".

The other day on Face Book I saw a posting from a mother of a 19 year old young man with type I diabetes.  He apparently was handling this quite well and even put a tattoo (fancy one) on his arm stating "Type I Diabetes".  But......she then stated, "I hope we can find a cure for this horrible disease".  

I personally feel that I have been blessed by BEING a diabetic.  

1.  I've had to watch ever morsal of food I eat.
  a.  I don't gain too much weight like some I know who have become morbidly obese.
  b.  I'm living a better life in many ways because I don't drink or smoke.
  c.  I usually feel as though I'm taking care of my "spirit within".  Similar to that book written regarding "The Child Within" or something like that, I feel my spirit is housed in this temple and I'm taking care of her.

It's quite interesting to me that I'm beginning to see people of my age dying earlier than I.  I'm the one who was told in the 1940's that I live to around 30 years of age.  I'm about to be 77 this year on 7/7/1917!  And doing WELL compared to my peers!  

I'm telling you, discipline is the key!  Just DO IT!  

With love to my fierce warriors, diabetic or not, who are practicing discipline because they care for the temples that our Heavenly Father gave us.  These temples , the housing for our soul and spirits are a gift.  How dare we not take care of them.

With love to you all walking this road with me....
