HEALTH has always been our greatest WEALTH.

this has always been a cliche. However this cliche needs to be punched in everyone's temple. and specially to me.

as for me, i realize the importance of health when i was admitted in the hospital few days ago.
unexpected.it was something tragic to me.


I was under medication for 4 days and good thing the illness that i had was not something severe. I had a Hi-fever that reached 39.8 degrees. I felt so weak that I could not almost stand with my feet. I had a dry cough.I had headache. I couldnt deny as well the reason why i was advised to stay in the hospital for medication was because I had symptoms of the famous AH1N1 or possibly, Dengue.

Back track, this wouldnt happen if , and only if i wasnt being so paranoid of losing weight.
I had only been eating oatmeals and wheat breads making sure that it wouldnt affect my weight. And it wasnt a good idea. What I was taking were all unhealthy. I had been overdoing physical activities as well, working out and dancing. There was no equilibrium between my food intake and my working out.My Immune System shut down. So then it happened. I got the flu right away from my sister plus over fatigue..

My ears almost got clogged of my father's nag about the things i had been doing while i was stuck in bed with the excruciating dextrose pinned in my hand. I was annoyed. Maybe because I found myself as the loser.
I was hospitalized. I was already unhealthy. What I thought was right was a grand mistake.

Worst is, I was discharged from the hospital exactly on my birthday. The pre-planned birtday bash was cancelled. :(
It would have been the best day. And it would have been a blast.

Reality check, I could not turn back time.

Moving forward, i am learning how to eat the right kind of food. No matter how tasteless the veggie is,and how distateful fish is (sorry Lord) I know it's still edible and it would help me and gain back my Immune System. And i'm also going back to eating 3 meals a day.

It's another lesson learned.
