After watching and listening to the TED lecture by Jill Bolte Taylor I realized that I am a habitual left brainer (hence the thrust of my blog)
18 years ago I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer. Besides radiation I embarked on everyday sessions of meditation and creative visualization. The cancer is gone and who can say by what means?
All I know is that I still suffer the ill effects of the radiation (small price to pay) But I have NEVER suffered from my meditations nor visualizations. I think it's about time I tried to be more balanced in my thinking.
As Paul Simon said in song......Who Am I To Blow Against The Wind?
About Me
- nestump1
- I was the Data Manager for Boeing back in the day.Taught myself to program in "basic" talking to a mainframe using a teletype machine.I bought a Commodore PET in 1975 and have had a computer ever since. I've discovered that many seniors my age know little more about computers than just how to e-mail. The internet as I'm learning is far far greater than the "Great Library of Alexandria".For me every day is a new voyage of discovery and I want to enliven other seniors to what's out there
