Not to take thingd for granted

No, you're not. Those who don't think they are, are. I don't think anyone can truly appreciate what they can do, how they can move and see and hear and walk, until something happens to make that impossible or difficult. Just simple things like picking up a bag of sugar was very hard for me after surgery. I learned to appreciate the fact that I could do it again after awhile. We cannot know what we will miss the most until it's gone. It's human nature. I sympathize with you. It will get better.

I am sorry to hear about what happened. But I do pray for you getting well real soon! Well we don't have to wait for a major event in our lives in order to see someone's value. As long as we live, we have to appreciate those people who have become a special part of our life. We just have to enjoy every moment that God has given us. It is a good feeling to know that we are loved as we also would. I pray for your full recovery!

For me not every person tend to do it in your life like you need to understand the fact so that thing's would be good and take more herbal medicine it can boast your immune system.

ooh my.. lucky ur okay now..six days in the ward.. lots of surprise visitor eh..thats good. So dont be stressful now..take easy on life..chill ok..? hopefully u will be able to type and do more normal things..like per usual before the stroke.. take care..happy mylotting..

It is true. We should never take things for granted especially our health because it can cost us a lot of money and worst-our life. Stress is so hard to handle and high blood pressure is a traitor and you'll never know when it attacks. It's good that you are better now and that there are people to support you. Just remember to keep healthy. Take care.

hi:) I'm sorry about what happened to you, but that's true, many people may tend to take for granted those things that mostly need to be thankful of, being healthy is one of them, friends and family also, the problem is mostly they appreciate those things when it's already gone. but you're still lucky because God still gave you a chance to correct that. get well soon friend!

I'm sorry to hear about your stroke. It seems that many people focus on what's wrong with their life instead of what is good. For instance I know someone that refuses to work. He/she claims that they are in pain. Everything hurts, their whole body. Said person has been to numerous doctors and they haven't found anything wrong with them. Still the person refuses to work. Whenever this person is around, they complain all the time. I've been telling them that I am tired of hearing about all their moans and groans. They should be thankful for the health that they have because there are a whole of of people in this world a lot worse off. This seems to be a routine this person has down and it is really sickening to observe. Nobody wants to be around this person because all he/she can talk about is how bad and how much they hurt. I'm glad you are recovering. Keep up the exercises and keep trying. Like you said, some people don't appreciate things/people until they don't have them anymore or almost lose them. Take care!

thanks for starting this discussion. many people really do complain about small things when situations can be so much worse. my dad has the worst kind of epilepsy one can have. when i find my self expecting too much or not be thankful for what i have thats when i think of my father. i then know i should be thankful that i don't have to suffer what he has to go through.
