Home was perpetually dusty as the renovation works continued. We walked around in slippers and stayed within the rooms that were untouched. After a month of eating takeaways, I craved for home cooked food. Finally that happened, after the kitchen was done and the refrigerator could be restored and restocked. Due to a lack of physical activities and unhealthy diet, I gained 2kg, undoing my efforts over the past year. A health check up is also due so I better go back to being disciplined on the workouts.
There's a disturbing trend that I noticed. More and more, I hear/read of seemingly healthy people falling seriously ill out of nowhere. For example, I'm sure most would have heard about people who suffered cardiac arrests while exercising. Within my second degree contacts, there were four occurrences over the past few months. They ranged from teens to early fifties. Some were unexpectedly diagnosed with cancer and three have since departed. Theories related to diet, vaccination and pollution had been suggested. How about climate change? The excessive use of earth's resources caused a vicious cycle of environmental degradation and now, we struggle to adapt. An unbalanced ecosystem creates new diseases, changes weather patterns and tweaks the unseen atmospheric conditions such that the human body can’t cope. Just look up the record breaking temperatures and its consequences. Even in clean Singapore, my nose is mostly irritated whatever time of the day. This month reminded me to stay focused on good financial outcomes so as to leave the working world before an unfortunate event strikes.
