Magokoro's Weekly Diary

Today I came out to my bicycle and discovered I had a puncture. What a nuisance! But then I thought, "that's all it is....a nuisance" I took it to the bike shop and had it fixed. The hole was patched up and I moved on.

I think it's a pretty good metaphor for life. Bad things happen and we must learn to move past them. To either fix them or put them behind us. Learn from our mistakes. I believe Yoda once said, "The greatest teacher, failure is" 

Now, getting a bicycle puncture is not a failure but it is something to move past. A small hurdle to overcome.

The same can be said of our health. Mental and physical. You can have all the riches in the world but if you don't have a sound mind or a decent physical condition then what is it all for? 

Laughter, family, friends and good health are the true inspirations of life. Stay healthy, drink and eat well, help yourself along the way with supplements. Hay fever season is right around the corner. The time is now. Don't wait for tomorrow. seize the day!
