We come to know the true value

We come to know the true value of our health when it starts slipping away from us.

Update, Dec. 05, 2025, 615am ET: The next blog (jeffnoel.org) has a ‘white screen of death’. Hope to have this fixed asap.

Meanwhile, you can jump past jeffnoel.org and continue to junglejeff.net here. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Want power, body?

Want power?

Control the temple housing everything keeping you alive — your body.

Ps. Obviously there are exceptions. Totally get it. If you’re one, please know i’m talking to the masses (which includes me), not the exceptions. Why? Because i am not wise enough to do that.

Pss. Case in point: Just heard a same-age-as-me college fraternity brother is suddenly an exception. He’s been diagnosed with CJD. We were on our college Track Team together. He was a superstar. i couldn’t make a relay team. We are all (the other brothers and their families) praying that the University of Pennsylvania’s second opinion, via a spinal tap, contradicts the first opinion from their home in New Jersey.

How long do you plan for?

During this 3-hour excursion, walked seven miles. There were stops (clock keeps ticking) along the way for pull-ups, planks, dips, animal observations. The no-gym gym workout took an additional 20-30 minutes before leaving home to walk.

While walking this morning, thought of friends, family, colleagues, and neighbors who’ve committed to an exercise regime.

At least a 40-year observation.

And then some questions reflexively began, effortlessly:

  1. How long do you plan to exercise?
  2. How long do you plan to eat better?
  3. How long do you plan to get better rest?

There’s only one smart, over-focused answer.

i don’t even need to say it.
