Random thought...

Our life is full of meaning but since the moment we are born the definition of us being human beings is diluted with consumerism and by the time we are all 20 we have been exposed through so much greed, hatred, and confusion forcing us to think that we have a purpose in life and that purpose often involves working until the day we die, "saving" money, have a  family and work harder so we can provide more things for them. Unthink is unlearning all of this and re learning the meaning of our own lives. We have the power to refocus our lives and give it more meaning while working less but enjoying life more and in cases even earning more than before. Free your mind with the art of less and become a greater you.

What is Lupus?

Picture source: lawsonblacksfoundation.org/causes/lupus-symptoms

I want to take a moment, and introduce you to a very personal part of my life, a condition my wife has been dealing with for her adult life, Lupus?

I didn't know a thing like lupus existed and neither do most of us, please read and share, this could save your daughter, mother, sister or wife's life someday. 

Lupus is a chronic, autoimmune disease that damages random parts of a person's body, most commonly, women. The organs most commonly affected involve skin, joints, heart, brain, liver, blood, and your eyes. Lupus is most commonly found in women of color (Asian, African American and Hispanic) under 40. The symptoms are horrible and are often much much worse than what cancer patients report sometimes lasting months to even years between flares. Once diagnosed with lupus you must change your life completely to cope with the condition as it never goes away and depending on age, your chances of death can be very high because there is no cure and medical doctors still don't know what causes it or if it can be cure, so the effort is in controlling it. 

Lupus changes your life as it attacks itself and your lifestyle and those around you. But we shouldn't let something as horrible and little known of as lupus get in the way of our dreams. You are reading this because I want to expose the realities of dealing with lupus and how it affects families and what we can do to help ourselves in chasing our dreams or helping others happy a fulfilling life while living with lupus.

Please follow, as I will continue to write and hopefully help everyone who reads.

Also, feel free to share your stories, I would love to have your story on Spotlight :)
