Health in Time

This is the best and at the same time the worst possible time to talk about this.

Health. How many times have we heard the saying health is better than wealth. But the important question is do we follow it.

3 deaths of people whom i knew, my own aunt hale and hearty passed away at 71 less than two weeks ago and 2 of my friends fathers lost their lives last week. It a sad thing but the positive is that they passed away in peace without causing trouble to others and more importantly themselves. 

The question still ponders, looking at our lifestyle will we even reach that age. Junk food, Inhaling smoke day in and day out, the occasional smoke, or that drink every Saturday night, will take us no where but closer to pain and agony when the fat lady sings. 

Today i went for blood donation and felt giddy as soon as the normal 8 ml blood was removed for tests forget the full 400 ml. Made me feel miserable. This aint the first time i am donating, but this is surely the first time when the nurse had to hold my hand and guide me to the couch which seemed quite blurry and out of my range. To make me feel good and sooth my mental state, the nurse said it happens at times as its too hot and i havent had any food. But then too some where down in my heart i know the real reason for this state of my body. Constantly sweating even in the air conditioned blood bank and loosing my balance on removal of just 8 ml of blood, opened my eyes and its high time it opens up yours too. 

Writing this in good faith for those who really matter to me and just a simple promise to take care of your health and avoid the wrong things which might affect us a little later.
