Rereading the Bible Bible List

New year, new me! Right? Wrong. This year is all about developing the plans I started last year. So it might be new year, old me! For this first part of the New Year I’m going to focus on re-reading the Bible. I’m starting a self-written plan inspired by a Youtube Video I watched: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uIXzUEwrOg The video took a good look at the data and created a timeline on when specific parts of the Bible were written.

I’m wary of those articles. There’s a line between data supporting claims and data that is created to support claims. I can’t discern that line, I’m not trained.But I’m willing to try a touted food cure. Worst case scenario: nothing happens. Best case scenario: it actually works.


And in terms of depression and anxiety. I sometimes wonder if I am chasing dopamine. Or am I chasing serotonin. Regardless of what I think I’m chasing. I’m relieved that I enjoy green tea. Green tea is listed as a brain food in the following video. I might add it to my roundup of foods. Perhaps you’d enjoy it too.
