I could hardly believe it! 1 August! The 213th day of the year, with roughly 152 days remaining until the year ends! I was flabbergasted... when did the year go and pass me by? I just wanted to do SO much with myself, my family and friends this year... More than half of its gone... will I stay on planning the year while it runs out on me?
Maybe its my wake-up call, hmm? Time to stop to THINK about what needs to be done, and just DO things... live in the moment? Get things done?
Take for instance the following: Its the coldest winter we've had in South Africa in AGES... even people like me, who don't frequently wear jackets and tops - I'm covering up, looking for my partner at night to cuddle. Even the kids are looking out to jump into bed with us. Not that we mind. #Lovethemtobits! LOL! And I do miss them now that I'm back at work...
Needless to say, cause its so cold (maybe cause I'm on more medication I've been in a while) - its like I'm constantly hungry! Weird - like when I was in my teens... anything and everything... just in order to be munching. Not that I need it - I'm overbese... HUGE! I need all the luck I can to lose weight - and here I wanna add on the pounds...
That's why I have to tilt my hat to all Muslims going through their month of Ramadan. It must be tough! But they're sticking it out - not complaining - which says a lot. As a Christian I feel at a loss for words... How can it be that most Christians can't get along - stand strong - rather we see the slight differences in buildings, what we wear, colours, pastors, ministers, reverends, groups - the list goes on...
We should have learned from our past mistakes... We should also be able to fast for our believe's - on a world wide scale... Shouldn't we?
But what do I know? I'm just an overweight, chronic asthmatic, worrying about an appointment with a lung specialist tomorrow - feeling that the year's been passing me by too quickly!
