🌾 Today’s Poem ~ Limitless
Limitless
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
When the motive is right and the will is strong
There are no limits to human power;
For that great Force back of us moves along
And takes us with it, in trial’s hour.
And whatever the height you yearn to climb,
Though it never was trod by the foot of man,
And no matter how steep—I say you can,
If you will be patient—and use your time.
💡 Something to Think About
Even if you are filled with wisdom , it is better to opt for silence if those you are with are not listening.

The Mediterranean diet. This ever-popular eating plan and lifestyle, which is derived from the regimes followed by the those who lived around the Mediterranean Basin (such as Italy, Spain, and Greece) about 60 years ago, focuses on foods that are mostly plant-based (i.e. fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds) along with healthy oils and smaller servings of fish, dairy, and lean meats. After all, the citizens who reside in this part of the world have lower rates of cardiovascular disease — the number one cause of death in men and women, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention — as well as longer life spans.
