Eyes opened Wide

Things have seem to continue to slowly go down hill in my family. My mother went from recovering soon from the hospital, to having 20 strokes in a week. She went in with a hemmoraging stroke, only to have conditions that caused her to have clotting strokes also. When we are living everyday we don't think things of this nature could happen to us. Or we are healthy enough for this to not take toll on us, especially if we are young. But we are at a higher risk than our elders. Our habits that we have formed now, will slowly begin to tell on us as we grow older. Our bodies are a temple something we should worship by taking extreme care of, yet we fail to do so by continuously stating we do not have the time to work out, we do not have the means to eat healthy. But what would hurt us to take 30 minutes of our day to walk or jog, or even go to the gym. Especially college students, if we are full time student we can go to the gym or rec center for free. All we have to do is follow a few rules. Even thou you may find it silly or menial-will you be saying that the day you are sitting in the hospital staring down at someone you love, and they could have done the same thing? There is always time its just the matter of you taking the initiative to do so. Don't wait until you see a loved one dying because of illnesses that could have been prevented-live and educate those that you love.
