My brother-in-law died yesterday, it was unexpected. Dave went in for surgery on Wednesday and things didn't go according to plan.
The term gets over used now-a-days but Dave was a legend. Nothing was too much trouble if you needed a hand doing something. He
always had some banter and a smile to offer. He will be sorely missed.
Again it highlights that life is too short. We need to live our lives to the full and experience everything it has to offer us.
That isn't an excuse to abuse our bodies though. I have had many conversations where people justify their poor choices because 'you only live once'.
Most people aren't living - they're surviving their lifestyles. Feeling tired all of the time, being in pain, writing days off to hangovers every week isn't living.
As humans we have evolved to be
adaptable and thrive in our environments, yet many have now got basic human movement function. When you're body works well, you can experience so much more life.
If you struggle to get out of bed in the morning, take that as a hint that you need to start making changes. A little change can make a huge difference to your overall health and wellbeing.
I've said it before and this week has highlighted it many times - make sure you tell your family and friends that you love them and care. You really don't know what lies around the corner.
Holding grudges doesn't help you or harm the other person, they are simply wasted energy that eat away at you - forgive and move on.
