Young or old; we're merely mortals

I was at the hospital this morning accompanying my dad for his eye checkup. While waiting, I saw most of the   crowd were old, from all different races.

Then, I saw a bunch of medic people carrying a bed with a patient. The patient's eyes were bleeding and he was unconscious. They quickly brought him inside and waited for his turn as well.

A sudden yet obvious fact hit me. The hospital was not a fun place. In fact, the hospital is actually the saddest, most painful place in the earth. I don't pay visits to the hospital that often, Alhamdullilah and I don't like the hospital. I mean who does, its a place where it determines your health and fitness. Yet again, we can't run from all of it. Afterall we are all mortals; we're bound to die, young or old. 

Watching all these patients waiting for their turn for their checkup reminded me that I will be one of those of people in the future. As much as I wanted to deny it, the truth prevails. Well, youth is temporary, and it made me realized I should be grateful for all the blessings i have now, and should enjoy my youth as much as possible. Go hiking, swimming, get on rollercoasters, meet people & have fun! Probably spend less time on sitting, watching tv, on the internet 24/7( i mean we can still do all if these when we get older). Point is, we dont want to regret when we're in wheelchairs and wearing prosthetic teeth. Be joyful while we can! 

Sorry if this post seems a bit random. I was waiting for my dad and I had to write my thoughts out. Till then! 💖


XOXO
