✒️ Writers’ Wisdom ~ Writing Tips for Writers

“Close the door. Write with no one looking over your shoulder. Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It’s the one and only thing you have to offer.”

~ Barbara Kingsolver

🌾 Today’s Poem ~ He and She

He and She

William Butler Yeats

As the moon sidles up
Must she sidle up,
As trips the scared moon
Away must she trip:
“His light had struck me blind
Dared I stop’.
She sings as the moon sings:
“I am I, am I;
The greater grows my light
The further that I fly’.
All creation shivers
With that sweet cry

🍎 Today’s Health Question ~ Is There an Immune System Boosting Diet?

Answer: Yes, you can boost your immune system through your diet.

Is there an immune-boosting diet? The answer is yes — but there is no need to download or print a list of specific superfoods for your next shopping trip. “You’re not going to see the benefit that you want to see by eating a large amount of one single nutrient or food component,” Meydani explained. That’s because the body’s cellular immune response relies on harmonious interactions between different micronutrients found in a huge variety of whole foods. Therefore, the best route to a healthy immune system is to eat a large variety of fresh and colorful red, yellow, orange, blue and green fruits and vegetables each day, along with some high-quality whole grains, a bit of lean protein and a splash of healthy oils.
