HEALTH
Functioning painlessly.
When the gears are not
grinding.
Only appreciated when
we lose it.
Using bodily resources
to the fullest.
Ability to accelerate
without conking out.
Smiling inwardly and
outwardly at the same time.
Enjoying the triumphs
of battles won knowing you are losing the war.
All parts of you
functioning more or less the way they were intended.
Steadily striving and
accomplishing despite physical and mental impediments.
A ‘friend’ who takes
leave when trouble brews but nevertheless is welcome back.
- Perhaps one’s
attitude determines one’s health.
- Perhaps each
person’s idea of being healthy is unique.
- Perhaps the more
we overcome the more we can accomplish.
- Perhaps a healthy
mind is infinitely more important than a healthy body.
- Perhaps we all
share attempts to avoid even ignore the same rotting stuff!!
- Perhaps women are
healthier than men because nature deems women more valuable.
- Perhaps the
positive thrust of an energetic mind driven by worthy goals
is effective in overcoming most impediments and threats.
- Perhaps there are
moral imperatives that when heeded help in avoiding
depravity which undermines physical and mental wellbeing.
- Perhaps what you
put into your body AND your mind becomes YOU; perhaps you
are the primary ‘determiner’ of what you become.
- Perhaps nature is
too fickle to be relied on and too destructive to be
trusted; perhaps that is why we seek refuge in a more
powerful Force.
