For human beings, motion is life. Our bodies are made to move. By exercising modestly on a regular basis, we can change the rate of our aging on a biochemical level. Regular exercise also improves mood, boosts energy levels, and builds self-confidence.

Update May 2, 2023: This domain will be up for grabs soon, and its server files will self destruct 11/28/2024. I’m not afraid of death because I’ll be proceeding the people I most admire, relatively soon.(Think about that, Ha, Ha!) P.S.: I’m currently taking infusions to fix my brain (more ha, ha!)

I check my heart now, and I find that there is still a feeling there, of something hot and struggling.

Humans are amphibians – half spirit and half animal.
As spirits they belong to the eternal world, but as animals they inhabit time.
This means that while their spirit can be directed to an eternal object, their bodies, passions, and imaginations are in continual change, for to be in time means to change.
Their nearest approach to constancy, therefore, is undulation – the repeated return to a level from which they repeatedly fall back, a series of troughs & peaks.

Fun is closely related to Joy – a sort of emotional froth arising from the play instinct; it promotes charity, courage, contentment, and many other evils.
