H) To cap it all l filled the fuel tank up with just N13,500 .
Total cost was N160,000. (Approximately $460 USD)!!!!!!
While on my bed this night, The Sad news of the various people that I had known that are currently demised this year kept recurring in my mind.
I have lost two different Lawyers and an engineer all in their prime (20's, 30's)
I was informed that before their sudden demise they had at one point or the other all complained of one slight symptom of ailments or the other before death struck suddenly.
This got me asking myself:
HOW MUCH MONEY HAVE I SPENT THIS YEAR TO SERVICE MY BODY?
For how long will I keep thinking all is well with my health in spite of all odds?
As we go through life, We go through dust at times, breath in all kind of unhygienic and highly polluted air, drink some water we can't acertain their sources, eat plenty junk foods with dangerous additives and hazardous condiments.
We expose ourselves daily to radiations from our computer and phone without actually paying attention to the negative effect it may have on our general well being.
If my car could gulp over $460 dollars in just one instance just for general servicing and tuning. Then I think I deserve to diagnose and upgrade my system.
At this moment, the question of Who is doing the tougher job, between you and your car now becomes imperative?
Can you remember the last time you went for a medical checkup?..I don't mean having to fall sick and going to the hospital out of necessity for survival, I mean just a routine health check up..?
Can you really say that you are practicing a healthy lifestyle?
With relations to how you take care of your vehicle, What are the efforts that you are making to ensure that you maintain an optimum capacity of your internal body organs?
The Oil Filter of your vehicle could best be seen as your Kidney,
Your Heart plays the role of the Fuel Pump
While the Air Filter could be seen as the Lungs
And your Pancreas, are the Plugs in your body
Your Liver does the Job of the Chemical Filters
Your Bones and skeletal system xould be seen as the Chassis body.
While the eyes are the head lamps.
The legs - the tyres.
And your veins and the intestine are the wires and the hoses of the Vehicle.
When last did you check your head lamb (your eyes) ,Your chemical filter (Livers), Your Air filter (Lungs) and other vital organs of your body?
It could make a whole lot of difference.
Remember nothing could ever be more important than your health.
Health is Wealth
