Duck Dynasty and Simplicity

This blog has really little to do with fitness, however, everything to do with health. Health is not just as simple as being in shape and eating right. Our mental and emotional help can play a huge role in everyday life with relationships, to include both personal and professional. So Duck Dynasty??
If you haven't seen this show it about a family in Louisiana that developed and marketed a dog call and became millionaires. I am not a fan of reality TV, however, I like this show. Where other shows, like Real Housewives or Jersey Shore are rule of drama and people always trying to get things they don't have, these fellas on Duck Dynasty spend time telling jokes, playing gags and bickering amongst themselves. Its entertaining and its not at the expense of someone getting hurt. Even those this family is rich, they maintain much of their original lifestyle, Phil, the actual designer of the duck call, still lives in a trailer; they all show gratitude for what they have and they don't stress on the things they don't have. I appreciate that.
In our modern world where there is so much stress to be perfect; the perfect wife, the perfect mom, the perfect student and stress to have perfection; the perfect car, the perfect house, the perfect body; it is nice to see a change and watch these self proclaimed red necks allow themselves to be video taped and laughed at to a wide viewing audience. And if there is anything that can relieve a little stress and anxiety (which will add the pounds on) its a little laughter. If you haven't seen this show, you should do your body a favor and take 25 minutes to relax and have a laugh!
