To give oneself earnestly to the duties due to men, and, while respecting spiritual beings, to keep aloof from them, may be called wisdom.
Little Changes Go a Long Way
You do not have to alter your entire life to lose your weight loss goal. Little changes can make a big difference. So take the stairs instead of the elevator at work. Park farther away when you are shopping. Go for a daily walk to clear your mind. Swap out the ice-cream for some yogurt. With these small changes you will burn calories and as a result expedite your weight loss!
