Giving Advice...

[B-52 7,113]

I had a Heart Attack about 6 years ago, followed by cardiac Surgery.....pretty serious stuff, many of my peers, ex-classmates, are no longer with us....

I have friends in the same boat as I...some go to the gym everyday, others take it easy and try not to get over worked or stressed....

And I have developed my lifestyle since then.....

Is it my place to tell the active Cardiac Patients they better slow it down or they can do themselves some harm?... OR is it my place to tell the inactive ones to get out there and do some cardio on the treadmill?

Either way, the answer is OF COURSE NOT! Their lives is none of my business....I couldn't show my face at their funerals and face their families if I did...either way...but on the internet people have anonymity and no consequences.....

So what can I do? Not much, except share what I do, and what my Dr. has told ME what I should or not do......NOT be a self appointed expert telling people what they can or cannot do....or how it all works and how it does not work....

I'm not sure what's worse...the people telling other people what to do? or the sheep that blindly follow.....

For me it's simple...I use the "Ignore" feature.....
