Hot ‘n Healthy

 by Archie

One might, considering the casual atmosphere of our tropical Therian  paradise, tend to let one’s self, become, well frankly,  a bit lazy… 

Here’s a look at what could be either, the disastrous results of an attitude of escapism, or the positive results of a motivated avie, accomplishing something worthwhile!  

Firstly, there is my negative archetype of the “escape” artist. Wanting to escape from all responsibility. Needing, umm, rather “wanting” deceptive stimulation away from disciplined, positive action and into denial of really living and doing. Doing what? Bottom line? Doing the inspiring work of making the world a little bit better. I could perform services, or other creative activities, which are far more stimulating, oh, but then I might have to actually think.  – So is that it? All this escapist stuff to avoid thinking? But doesn’t one have to think pretty hard just escape from reality…? Yes it’s true…so why work even harder? ‘hmmm…Yes the human animal is a very strange thing indeed. 

“Pig” your Poison 

So the typical trap we fall into is just this. I call it “The Vice Grip”. Get a really bad habit and hug it, hold it, feed it your soul, until it simply finishes you off. That way, you can become totally selfish, and completely dysfunctional, dragging, pulling in everyone you know into your vortex of negativity. let’s call ‘em co-dependants. Wreck their lives along with your own. Ruin all your relationships – at home, at work, and ultimately even other homeless bums will want to – not walk, but run away from you. You will have lost everything you know. This of course, is all because of There food. Yes, pigging out on your little mini-vacations in There. 

Over indulgence- (isn’t that a redundancy?) 

You arrive on the beautiful beach, looking brutally hot! People see you and almost pass out from your hotty-ness. Then the cravings come to sabotage you because you actually have no real purpose in life. You could be sitting with your sketchpad designing architecture or fashions, and making phone calls, or emailing clients and associates. You could be being creative and productive. Maybe you’re into writing music or painting hoverboards-  

BUT, OH…NO… 

You start munching popcorn, (There-carbs) burgers (There-fats) and indulging in drinks, more drinks, and are becoming a driveling idiot. Growing a big fat happy-holiday butt, and looking extremely, you know, non-hot.  

Yikes!  

What to do? What NOT to do? Well, don’t eat because your stressed out- uh…because your losing your “slim and sexy” ???? Hello??? You must identify how to apply your creative gifts. (Instead of just being brilliant at self-destructive consumerism) What do you want to contribute to society? Arts? Business?  

Picture this 

Picture yourself in a cool, creative business. Imagine it up and running. You can then identify all the steps in order to do it, and then bring in people to teach do the same thing and guide them. Then they could contribute ideas, and bring in more people, it becomes so exciting, and it just becomes more and more exhilarating!  

Side Effects 

Before you know it, someone will have to remind to eat something once in a while. You will become so pre-occupied with your creative works that you become very slim, trim, and have a burning purpose in life and…hey wait a minute, check it out! You’re on your way to becoming quite the desirable avie! Whoa! Gorgeous, wealthy, and a creative genius! You Rock! 

Enough said-
