The young people who have never been schooled in responsible behavior and others who grow to adulthood still caught in groove of inward adolescence become misfits of society. They continually change jobs because they still believe there is a perfect vocation for them (read: little work, no responsibilities). Or, like many indoctrinated by welfare system, they believe if they are looking, if they are standing on line, they are, in fact, doing something constructive for their owe well-being. Many times they leave family and friends in search of Utopia and, often, they become embittered old people who believe that they were never given opportunity for happiness. Opportunity was always there, right in front of their eyes, only they looked but did not see.

Now this is not to say that searching for one's place in this world is not good. The searching can be done responsibly. But one must remember that happiness can never be found in outward -- happiness is found within. Each of us has a responsibility to be happy. It certainly isn't an easy task. Every day cannot be joyous. We must have some pain or else we can never fully savor delicious taste of success.

It is a privilege and a responsibility to live each day to best of our ability. No one owes us happiness. No one can make us happy but Power to Be and ability to be happy that lies within. We each have responsibility for our own welfare and happiness. It's only way to grow "free" in society.

Omega-3 Fats: These are most plentiful in fatty fish - salmon, trout, tuna.as well as in green leafy vegetables, flaxseed, flaxseed oil and tofu. Lack of dietary fat may also prevent absorption of phytochemicals contained in fruits and vegetables.

According to Kevin Vigilante, M.D., co-author of Low-Fat Lies: High-Fat Frauds and Healthiest Diet in World. "One of most unhealthy things you can do is pour a nonfat dressing on a salad.

"Carotenes (phytochemicals that are some of most potent anticancer antioxidants) bind to fat. If you don't eat any fat within a few hours of consuming carotenes, you won't absorb them. So health benefits of that salad are flushed down toilet," he says.

One of best ways to get "fat" with your salad is flax oil. Here are some of my favorites dressing recipes using flax oil: (NEVER cook with flax oil, it becomes toxic when cooked)

Cyndi's Famous Flax Dressing

1 Cup flax oil 4 T. honey 3/4 t. ginger 1/2 t. pepper 2 T. raw apple cider vinegar

Blend all ingredients and serve. Shake well just before using. You can increase or decrease amount of honey to taste.

This is a sweet dressing; probably why I like it so much!

You can also try these different variations; - Barbeque Dressing - Your favorite barbeque sauce and flax oil - Honey Mustard Dressing:Again, Flax oil, mustard and honey. Mix to taste.

It used to be that there was only one kind of fat - BAD! Now research is showing importance of essential fatty acids.

Not only will those "good fats" help you lose weight, they will help you achieve your health!
