We are mom and dad, who in addition to being parents, do research on healthy lifestyle and cancer. We would like to achieve a healthy, balanced and meaningful life. In our pursuit, we sift the healthy from the unhealthy, the simple from the complicated advice. The blog also includes random musings on topics other than health and parenting.

The bugaboos in our life
Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive. Elbert Hubbard
There is a fine balance between sanity and insanity, healthy and unhealthy, reasonable and unreasonable, psychosis and normal attitude. I would like to lead a healthy and wise life; however, sometimes I am dubious about the advice, and fatigued from the messages that are supposed to keep me safe, informed and healthy.
I visit health blogs and websites daily. Health and purposeful existence are an interest of mine; however, most of the time I feel terrible about the contents I read and hear. The more I know, the sadder I feel. The news is usually an old news, a bad news, or an advice that is “blah” and uninspiring. Frequently, the only good news are the news about new breakthrough medications. Forward a few years, and the same medications seem ineffective.
What I truly would like to find on sites that promote well-being and health is how people obtain a better quality of life by doing something within their power, something that does not require high tech, medications, or lots of money. And if a problem is mentioned, I would like it to be accompanied by at least a glimmer of hope that there is a solution.
Can life be healthy and enjoyable at the same time? What do you think? Starting today - three months after we published our first post - we are opening this blog to your comments.
