GESUNDHEIT.
this post is to health.
this year i have had the misfortune to visit a few funerals, and one thing i have brought from all these is that the fragility of life has never meant more. in fact, i just left one this very night.
sometimes as humans we tend to take our health fr granted. we expect our bodies to recover the bouts of common cold, or the little scrapes and bruises we put it through. we sprain an ankle and then grumble for a while.
but do we actually stop to think about what we have that money cannot buy? there are people out there that may never be able to heal from a blister, or that a scrape causes them to amputate their leg. oh i can hear you go: sure, shit happens, but it'll never happen to me!
well, almost all cancer patients say that. and every person who's gotten a disease. our mind is programmed to a "superman" attitude, one which states it won't happen to me until it happens. by then, it's too late.
so this post is a timely and important reminder to cherish your health.
another reason for this post is that this week, health is being the main concern in Asian countries as the nuclear crisis in Japan, everyone is worried about radiation sickness and cancer. food bans and radiation screening is everywhere now.
i guess seeing the fragility of our own health too can make us a tad paraniod. or maybe just over-cautious.
third reason? i'm sic and i'm just plain tired by it. i mean, i rarely fall sick, like once a year, but this year i've been really fragile. like i keep getting the flu and lots of headaches. it drains your focus, and that sucks when you work, cause it trips me up when i make mistakes.
that said, i guess i should get whatever sleep i can still catch with this flu.
♥ I'VE GOT HEAVEN ON THE INSIDE OF ME.
peace and joy God has set me free.
