One of the many things that people say I take for granted and I have noticed because it smacks me in the face from time to time is my health. I have anemia, and should be taking care of it by eating correctly, also by taking my vitamins. I can truly say that it's been 8-9 months that I have not seen my primary doctor.
Last time I went for a physic, she said that my hemoglobin was too low, and gave me my iron pills. My refills probably ended 5 months ago and I haven't gone back. Sometimes or most times I can blame on the little time I have. I work two jobs basically all day, my first job is 7am-2:30pm, the second job is 4pm-12am.
I shouldn't take for granted my temple, because it's like my mother always taught me, "If you don't take care of yourself, who is?" I have seen the consequences of not taking good care of my health. There are days that I can't get up of my bed, times that I have fainted at my job and in public places. I know I need to make a change ASAP, not only with not going to the hospital and get checked but also with my eating habits.
I am thankful and grateful for my family, that even though sometimes they have strong ways of teaching life and showing love, I know they do it for my own good, so I don't trip anymore as much. I am also grateful for my friends, sometimes friends are the best family we can have. They don't necessary have to be there nor they are obligated to be so, but the ones that stick around and hold your back, is because they love you for real. I appreciate the the punishments of my loved ones, the advice, yelling, ear pulling that they have given me through out the years. Even though at the moment they haven't been well appreciated by me or either have I been happy for them now looking at me, if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have accomplished half of the things I have.
Things that I'm working on and that I'm getting better at is patience and having hope on people's change for good. Before I used to never have any problem on dismissing people out of my life because my patience was low and so was my hope. Now I am simply working on it. I did suffered and cried so much because letting go on people you care about, it's hard. And I was just taking it as a habit. You spoke about me? I didn't ask you anything, I would just walk away and suffer all on my own. Now I have better patience and much better communication and ask a little more to those who hurt me, and even have hope in their change for them to better themselves. I'm not perfect, and I am still not there, but I'm a working progress and I am trying to better my self in every aspect that I can and that is possible to.

And the nature's aroma
might be like a dream.
Sometimes just by swimming
in these blue sea
helps you dream
At times you may
feel like you're flying
in the sky.
Comparing the sea from the
sky at a dark night
is impossible.
You can see the moon,
and the stars
glowing at both ends.
The reflection of all things
you can find at the sea
like a clear mirror.
The best feeling
of the cool wind
running through your body.

The sea and the wind
Feeling the salty wind
might be like a dream.
Sometimes just by swimming
in these blue sea
helps you dream
At times you may
feel like you're flying
in the sky.
Comparing the sea from the
sky at a dark night

Kiara,
ReplyDeleteGood post. Again, I can see you working through some hard, tough thoughts in most recent journals, and I hope that some of the things (the advice) that you write about yourself - is being followed through with yourself.
You seem to be processing a lot in your posts, and that's the point. Keep up that honest effort and keep infusing your thoughts and realizations into your days and weeks.
Go get those pills! Take care of yourself. That's number 1. Your mom is right.
Your poem is very good this week - you went abstract! ...and you did it well! You were asked to write 5 haikus, though, so you're a little off topic. But I like what you wrote. It's very poised, very creative, and very calming on the reader.
