Health is wealth. We are always reminded by this adage to take care of our health. Many sayings, reminders, and mantras were imparted to value one's health but in today's fast paced world, we take for granted everything- especially our health.
We woke up early morning to start the day right by preparing for the day's work. We go to our respective workplace with much energy, and after a hard day's work, we go home lowbat.
We enjoy life's simple pleasures until we come to the extent that we spend extravagantly to satisfy one's wants and desires. After a long day's work, we deserve to have a break.
Yes, we need to have a break. Our body always gives us signals to slow down. Slow down on life's circus and magic carpet ride. Though life is not easy, we have to savor every moment and every ride that we have.
As we tread with life, it is a rollercoaster ride. We work day in and day out and working so hard for our goals. We have dreams to pursue, careers to be devoted to, and everything that goes in between. But at the end of the day, are we really happy, contented, and satisfied?
We work hard for our family but do we spend more time with our family? Do we take time, eventhough we have to just give an hour or two to our family? Do we take our family to dinner and have a good laugh? Just a simple dinner out with our family can bring smiles to their faces.
Did you take your mother out for her to enjoy the grandeur and beauty outside of her comfort zone? Did you take time to buy her even the simplest thing that will give her the biggest and the expensive smile on her face? We work hard so much, we get weak and our health may drop, at the end of the day, our vitamins are God and our family!
The moment that we are at our weakest, our family is our comfort. The moment that everything is bleak, our family is our sunshine. Let's not take them for granted.
My friend, as what Mother Teresa said, "go home and love your family". The only cure for any diseases is to go back to your roots, spend time with them, and love them.
Please spend time with them coz it might be too late.
