Day 5: I am grateful for HEALTH.
I am surely not the healthiest person, but I can see (even clearly with my glasses on), I can hear, talk (and sing!), walk, run, jump, dance, breath, taste, smell (at least a little and given how the city stinks sometimes I'm also happy for reduced smelling ability), sense, feel, drink, eat and (most importantly) think. Lately I even got back to being able to sleep refreshingly (which I missed for a lot too much years) and dream! And although I do have some ailments (tooth problems, skin issues, my not-totally-correctly-grown spine and two chronic psychiatric states), I learned to accept these as parts of my life and since I've had loved ones battle terminal illnesses, I came to the conclusion that I can legitimately think of myself as healthy. I consider myself very lucky to
a) live in a country with a mostly working health system where I can go see a doctor/specialist when needed
(*special thanks to doctors and nurses who work in this between-the-years-time and in emergency services all year*)
and
b) be healthy enough to stand on my own two feet and think clearly before I raise my voice.
I am very grateful for that. I wish all the best regarding health to all of you, too!
