RESISTANCE IS FERTILE

FUTILE
I’m not a fan of Star Trek, Star Wars, or any wars for that matter, but there seems to be a substantial disagreement on the origin of the phrase “Resistance is Futile.” Apparently, the phrase was popularized by the Bork or Borg in the movie “Star Trek: The Next Generation.” I wouldn’t know, because I’ve never been awake or attentive through an entire Star Trek movie or episode. Someone apparently found a reference to the phrase in an X-Men comic written in 1976, so it seems futile to even try to figure out where the phrase came from.

FERTILE
I’m more interested in the idea or topic that “Resistance is Fertile.” It seems that we are actually witnessing a fertile resurgence of resistance all around us. So, in my mind, “Resistance is Fertile” in so many areas of life.

FUTILE OR FERTILE
I’m not here to draw conclusions, only to provoke thought. But, I think we have to consider our attitudes and opportunities about the topics I mentioned and decide if we want to make the investment in learning more about them. We live in such a connected world where information is available on all of these topics. For instance, I really enjoy getting information from Facebook groups like “Reversing Insulin Resistance” (https://www.facebook.com/groups/reversinginsulinresistance/) and “Lower Insulin” (https://www.facebook.com/groups/198981013851366/) where you will find enthusiasts that will discuss the finer points on the specific topics. And, there are Facebook groups and groups on other social media platforms for similar topics.
I encourage you to go explore, learn, and resist. It may be futile or fertile.

ME
Is resistance futile? Is resistance fertile? I think for me, it is both. But, I continue to resist every day, in every way, so that I can continue to learn and grow. For you, you have to decide.
If I can help you in any way, please let me know.
