We're here because we're sick.
Or because we have knowledge that we believe can help heal.

Our opinions are based upon information that we have learnt and understood and that may have helped us, they fit into our innate understanding and beliefs about life and the world around us. We absorb information that fits within our paradigm, or that challenges it so much we change our ways completely. The knowledge that helps us is not only related to our mental state and our personal beliefs but also to our biology and our chemisty, what works for one may kill another, no matter the will.

So, I have a problem (other than being sick)
Im confused, bemused, baffled, flummoxed, flustered, mixed-up, nonplussed and perplexed...

I read, I read a lot. I look to each expert and knowledable person and ask and read and examine what they say. Its the historian in me, one piece of evidence is not enough, one opinion is too few.

But what, then, do you do when respected opinions contradict one another, when one says: 'Drink distilled!' and another claims it will leach the minerals from your body and cause you pain and ultimately death? And both of them believe they are correct.

Then you research, and some people say its the safest best water - that it will only leach inorganic minerals, some people say its ok as long as you remineralise the water, some people say that the body responds to it with increased white cell production - as though as toxin has been introduced into the system.

How is one supposed to choose? Rock minerals in solution and the milk of the mountains gave great health and longevity to many tribes and peoples, but some claim it will calcify you and cause tissues to stiffen and you to suffer.

Who is 'right'?
Who has the 'truth'?
How am I (are we) to know who and what to pick, I cant simply keep trying all the derivations of knowledge and opinion. Healing one thing till another breaks, never finding the path for me because I dont always belive in it because I know of the opposing and comparitively valid contradictory opinions of others.

This isnt simply about distilled water, its about everything. All the different ideas and ways of finding health, the opinions from healthy people who have cured their disease. I really dont want the rest of my life to be filled with simply trying to be well, I want to LIVE and LIVE outside of this box searching for health. Health is the starting block from which all other experiences and ideas and notions must surely spring?!

Bah, I ramble on and on.
Im just confused! How is one to pick the right path, how is one to follow it to completion whilst trying to live a life within society? Without totally abandoning all my friends who drink and eat burgers but who I love and couldnt do without?

I cant follow the ideas of any one person I dont think, but I cant walk my own path?!
What am I supposed to do?
How did those who have chosen a path towards health pick their tutors? When did they decide whose knowledge would and could work for them? Within the boundaries of money, accessibility or intergration into existing lifetyle?

Bugger.
It might be easier if I knew exactly what was wrong, I guess...

Yours in confusion,
Chardy.
