Soda is bad because it is full of sugar and has a high caloric content. Also, the darker colas contain phosphorus. When phosphorus is consumed in excess it can deplete calcium absorption and lead to brittle bones. Its best to stick with water, teas and fruit juices. I eliminated sodas from my diet about 6 months ago and I do not miss it at all.

I think its because we live in a society of instant gratification. We want everything and we want it now. Sometimes we have to slow down, take it easy and take a step back. This helps us to put things in perspective so we can plan and achieve our goals.

I just lost my job three weeks ago. I thought it was the job of my dreams when I first started working. (health care industry). A former employee (who happened to be a friend to my supervisor) returned and all of a sudden my supervisor found fault with all of my work and I was terminated. I feel like I was thrown to the curb like a bag of trash. I am seeking new employment but it is so hard.
