Natural sugars derived from fruits, plants, legumes are good for you but regular sugar is bad for the body.  Sugars can be very dangerous to your health.  It can cause diabetes, cancer, cavities, rotten teeth, parasites, infections, etc.  A good diet with fruits and vegetables, grains, lots of water and exercise can prolong your lifespan but a diet full with sugar can reduce your chance to be healthy. 

Sugar tastes good but it poisons our body.  Many of us were raised on sugar, with lot of candies, cookies, cakes when we were growing up.  Our parents thought they were being nice to us by giving us a candy or an ice cream after diner. Though we were happy to get it, the bad feelings and the sickness that it brought to our belly weren’t pleasant and sweet. Therefore, treat your kids with real fruits and encourage them to drink plenty of water instead of sodas and juice. 

Life

Life is a wonderful gift from God.  It means “Live in full expectation”.  It has joy and also disappointments.  Life has no meaning if it doesn’t give you challenges.  Challenges help us to get in shape.  We can learn from our mistakes, but unfortunately, some of us repeat them over and over until they destroy us. If you never go through hardship, life becomes very difficult when troubles come.  You need to persevere in order to have endurance and then you will not grow weary in arduous times. 

Life is beautiful.  It is a blessing to be alive and to see the world around you.  You get to see the pretty flowers, smell them and see the love in the Eternal Creator.  He gave us different colors and shapes to appreciate.  He used the same principles to create us.  He made us tall and small, light and dark skin.  As we learn to appreciate the flowers, we will learn to appreciate one another.
