 A Journal to impart knowledge and facts |

July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
The question is are genetics a denominator in our life expectancy or do you believe environmental factors have more to do with life expectancy than genetics.![Merit Badge in BCoF 2

Congratulations on your virtual blogging adventure!](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/group-BCoF_2-1901868_14.gif) Hi:I don't actually know much about how old my Grandparents were or any generation before them. Also, ignorant of health in family lines. Information was deliberately withheld by elders. If I ever asked I was denied the information. I do know my dad was in his 90's. Once told he was 99. Do not know if this is true? In any event I really believe, we should not dwell on DNA because DNA knowledge is still in its infancy, when it concerns science. Dwell on your own personal lifestyle. Dwell on known facts. The organic body we live in can even under the right circumstances heal itself. During WWII often people did not have the opportunity to eat proper nutritious foods. We know such situations cause stunted growth and short lives. So, lifestyle is important. Less war will help a lot of people live longer. In the USA a lot of commercials are just pushing people to stress about medicine. Turn off the TV and take a walk, watch a sunset develop, read an inspirational story. Make the life you have whatever time it contains a peaceful worthwhile time. Some days I need to take my own advice.  |
