being healthy

"Being healthy is the best feeling ever" - Marcille, Delicious in Dongeon Chapter 19

Some people chase a feeling of euphoria ..

But honestly... just being healthy. Is such  a wonderful feeling to have. When no bones ache.. when the heart bears strong, when we can exercise and just enjoy life...

That's good.

back pain... again

Not sure when was the last time I had back shoulder pain... but I got it now again...

Owh the pain.  Such a reminder.

So played Albion online on the phone until 4am on Saturday night. Even went outside the room to charge the phone. Maybe it's the hunching that's causing the tendon or muscles to over stretch...

Played badminton on Sunday afternoon.  Did some jump smashes.. that might have been enough fast movement to tear the muscles...

Inflammation, to isolate movement and heal...

Health, wealth and happiness.

Really without health it is hard to enjoy life.

It's all actually small things that accumulate up.

Habits. Good and bad.

Don't have to go cold turkey on games. It just comes back with a nastier bite. But maybe try to make gaming a time of listening to podcast/audio books and something productive as well. Multi task while doing it.

Mastery comes with practice.

Practice excercises, practice juggling or using the unicycle...

It's fun to learn new skills.

Keeps the mind engaged in something worthwhile

Better than doom scrolling or reaching for the phone whenever one is bored.

Meditate, journal, read the Bible, sing songs, play the guitar

 Learn Chinese.

Spend time with God.

Spend time with family.

At the end of the day, life isn't so complicated.

Someone to love,

Something to do,

A purpose to live for.

"such a beautiful sunny day

Spoilt by your stupid mood..."

Instead say something like

"I know you're upset...

Let's try to make the best of the day..."

Internet full of made up stuff

Don't trust everything you see online.

Not everything on the internet is real or true.

social media observer

The reason why people like to post of Facebook, Instagram or social media...

Is because we want enlightenment.

To be able to view our currentself as a third party. To step outside our bodies and view what activity it is doing. And become an observer to it.

fear

Contrary to the saying that:

Fear makes one risk-averse

A healthy conception or perspective of fear can actually make one take on more risk. As if there was nothing else to loose, or if losing something more precious due to not acting on that healthy fear would be the consequence.

Let a healthy sense of fear drive us to become a better person.

Fear the Lord.

why I am not angry

A revelation when reading the magazine New Philosopher on emotions.

It's not that I don't get angry. Or not have the feeling of that emotion.

But I think I subconsciously fear conflict even more.

So, to subdue flashes of rage and hot arguments or fiery passions... I just prefer to stay calm. And not stir up anything.

This peace, stems not from tranquility or serenity itself, but from the desire to avoid upsetting others. If I am angry, the other person would be sad. I don't want them to be sad because of me.

Hence, I never get angry.

But I still fear.

I fear the other person getting angry.

we exist because God does

Q: how do you know God exists?

Because you exist. And I.

What constitutes us? Is not whom we are our consciousness (or some might call soul). And who has ever seen one before. Yet you believe that you exist.
