It?s just one of those things you ignore. The days tick by and you just expect they will keep on coming; Until
the unexpected happens. I always imagined myself growing old, wrinkled and grey, most likely caused by
the beautiful family (lots of kiddies) I planned on building with the love of my life. I want that so bad it
hurts.
That?s the thing about life; It is fragile, precious and unpredictable and each day is a gift, not a given right.
I?m 27 now. I don?t want to go. I love my life. I am happy.. I owe that to my loved ones. But the control is out
of my hands.
I haven?t started this ?note before I die? so that death is feared - I like the fact that we are mostly ignorant to
it?s inevitability... Except when I want to talk about it and it is treated like a ?taboo? topic that will never
happen to any of us... That?s been a bit tough. I just want people to stop worrying so much about the small,
meaningless stresses in life and try to remember that we all have the same fate after it all, so do what you
can to make your time feel worthy and great, minus the bullshit.
I have dropped lots of my thoughts below as I have had a lot of time to ponder life these last few months.
Of course it?s the middle of the night when these random things pop in my head most!
Those times you are whinging about ridiculous things (something I have noticed
so much these past few months), just think about someone who is really facing a
problem. Be grateful for your minor issue and get over it. It?s okay to
acknowledge that something is annoying but try not to carry on about it and
negatively effect other people?s days.
Once you do that, get out there and take a freaking big breath of that fresh
Aussie air deep in your lungs, look at how blue the sky is and how green the
trees are; It is so beautiful. Think how lucky you are to be able to do just that ...
breathe.
You might have got caught in bad traffic today, or had a bad sleep because your
beautiful babies kept you awake, or your hairdresser cut your hair too short.
Your new fake nails might have got a chip, your boobs are too small, or you have
cellulite on your arse and your belly is wobbling.
Let all that shit go.. I swear you will not be thinking of those things when it is
your turn to go. It is all SO insignificant when you look at life as a whole. I?m
watching my body waste away right before my eyes with nothing I can do about
it and all I wish for now is that I could have just one more Birthday or Christmas with my family, or just one
more day with my partner and dog. Just one more.
I hear people complaining about how terrible work is or about how hard it is to exercise - Be grateful you
are physically able to. Work and exercise may seem like such trivial things ... until your body doesn?t allow
you to do either of them.
I tried to live a healthy life, in fact, that was probably my major passion. Appreciate your good health and
functioning body - even if it isn?t your ideal size. Look after it and embrace how amazing it is. Move it and
nourish it with fresh food. Don?t obsess over it.
Remember there are more aspects to good health than the physical body.. work just as hard on finding your
mental, emotional and spiritual happiness too. That way you might realize just how insignificant and
unimportant having this stupidly portrayed perfect social media body really is. While on this topic, delete
any account that pops up on your news feeds that gives you any sense of feeling shit about yourself.
Friend or not...Be ruthless for your own well-being.
Be grat ef ul for each day you don?t have pain and even the days where you are unwell with man flu, a sore
