Health is Everything
Feeling good and being healthy, next to having a loving family and friends, is perhaps the most important thing you can work toward. For those of us who are suffering with serious health problems and disabilities, we understand the value of good health better than the average person.
Disabled people refer to healthy folks as “temporarily abled” because at some point in time, you will very likely develop a problem that interferes with your activities of daily living. Then you will see firsthand how important your health really is and will appreciate even the little things more.
I do miss some of the things I could do at one time. I miss hiking, cross country skiing, ice skating and just being able to do whatever I wanted without question. Now, I worry about even going to the grocery store because I may get weak and have to leave part way through my shopping. So, I don’t go shopping alone anymore, if at all.
Yes, health is everything. So keep yourself healthy, well nourished and “abled”.
