The mother of one of my friends, she eats only healthy food, does not drink alcohol, does not smoke, exercises regularly, does not go out without wearing sunscreen, consults with medical professionals regularly and follows their instructions exactly, she is a little "pervert" who values health too much She is a woman of routine. He is now 76 years old and has recently been diagnosed with skin cancer, spinal cord cancer, and severe osteoporosis.
But the father of another friend of mine, all his life, he did not listen to the advice of doctors, he ate and drank as much as he liked, he did not give up anything, he did not care about getting sunburned, he lived on his own accord, and he is now 81 years old, but the doctors are young. He marvels at his enviably healthy body.
By writing these, I did not want to touch either good habits or bad habits, but I wanted to share that I realized that no matter how hard one tries, one cannot escape from the harm and fate that is inside and inside. I just wanted to show the importance of being yourself, not running away from the inevitable things that we will face sooner or later. My friend's mother, who is seriously ill, said: "If I had known that life would end like this, I would never have followed other people's instructions, I would have lived by myself and by my own will." This is life, none of us will get out alive. Therefore, don't you need to stop treating yourself as an outsider and a secondary person, and live your life as you please. Maybe it will be late tomorrow. I think I need to eat delicious food, sunbathe, do the things I like, be a little silly, and live my unique life.
