You will Live out your natural life span by taking good care of yourself

It is the know fact that if you were young and full of energy and born with strong body, you will be dead earlier for not taking good care of yourself. This is not the misfortune but you yourself is the party responsible. We won't say it that this person has lived out the natural life span.

The healthy people usually won't pay attention to their health for being healthy since their birth and often leave this world earlier than the people who were born rather weak.

It is an irony that the people who were born weak, eating less, getting sick often and seemed to have less energy does live longer. Its reason is that they abstain from desire to protect own health. Those things seem to suggest that one's life span does not depend on the strength of one's body, but it depends upon if you would control your desire.

An ancient poet of China, Bo Juyi Po said, "Happiness and misfortune is of your discretion and indiscretion" and I agree with this notation.

How can you be so thoughtful. Don't you think? Being young and energetic means you have full of fortune. And you have to realize that everyone of us can't be a king. King needs the guard, cook, sweeper and lots of other people to take care of him. What the world could be if there were kings of all kinds and no mere normal person around? Then there's no meaning you being the king, right? Well, I'm afraid that I may not be able to sleep for this problem tonight. . . .

Stop smoking, smoking is the illogical desire and it develops to . . .

There is an archaic word; "A little patience could have prevented the disaster" If you cannot tolerate your desire it may lead to disaster. It is quite possible to suffer from serious illness for not repressing your desire of drink and lust a little while and it may lead to life time unhappiness.

You may get sick for not withholding from a glass of alcohol or a loaf of bread. If you do as your desire pleases you may be hurt seriously. For an example, it is like a glow of a firefly causes the fire of your resident and it further develops to the fire of you town.

There is another archaic word; "It may seem a bit when you commit and you won't see its further development. But the result may easily turn to the serious as immovable big mountain disaster.

This archaic word is logical. You may have seen so many big disaster has come from a little thing. It is ordinary that a little sickenss develops to a disaster. You must bear your desire.

It is recommended to remember those two archaic words and obey their sayings.

Do I bear? No, I smoke. Being close to 70 years old, I don't see big value of repressing my desire. But to tell you the truth, I worry a lot. My only hope is that I die without any agony. Sometime I imagine the agony of taking breath, the agony of chest pain, the agony of laying down flat on the bed. . . on and on.

It is agony just to think about it. Life is full of unexpected, right? So, a morning my wife find me on the bed not breathing with smiling face, 'cause I had delicious dinner the night before. Isn't it a dream?

Shut your mouth

It is the best to stay away from tall and long talk. It is better to avoid decorative talk. Your inner power would fluctuate with your long talk. Consequently it would hurt your power. It is the way of feeding your virtue not to talk much.

For us Orients, silence is the gold and eloquence is the silver. There was a TV commercial saying "Man drinks this beer without a word". This beer has been Sapporo. Do you know what would happen from this kind of mentality?

Well, ladies are much more talkative. They cannot shut their mouth. They need to talk about it from the start to the end. Or they need to talk just to hear and feel that they themselves are living, right? Don't take me wrong. I am not fed up listening to girls talk. I am not the believer of gender role. But you see girl talks much more than boys do.

After living so long, I currently see it rather nice to be able to talk much. We do not have the power of seeing other persons' mind. If you see anxiety on your friend's face, you have no way of knowing its origin. Is it possible to have the person talk? If you are not accustomed to talk persuasive, you may easily miss the point. So ?
