I always say this to people. Have money problems, have car problems, have any kind of external problems but health is one things that we should not negotiate. It’s the one thing that comes unannounced and it has the ability to strip you down of all your “badges of honor.”
I really really loved this, it speaks truly to the human existence.
Beautiful. Poignant. Insightful. So glad your mum is out and that you can appreciate all moments as a result of this. I liked the use of brittle. This really landed. Glad she's ok. And that you're integrating this experience to fully feel the extra in the ordinary of the fleeting moments of life that assimilate to become our experience. Each day truly is a lottery. Thank you for sharing.
Heya! It did resonate with me. You are right, we don't know the value f being healthy until we fall ill. This reminds me of my high school days where the first thing I've learnt was this sentence - Health is not everything but without health all the rest is nothing. We rarely stop to consider and appreciate this. Lovely piece and insightful, too.
This is such a beautiful piece, and truly with every reminder that life is so fragile let it also remind you to live fully with gratitude.Life is fragile, life is meaningless, life is beautiful, life is all these things and more at once it’s scary to know it can be taken at any moment. I’m so glad I came across your article.
May Allah SWT grant your mother a speedy and complete recovery and protect her from all harm.
I loved this post. What a beautiful reminder about how fragile life is, and with the precision and complexity our internal mechanism works, every heart beat feels like a miracle. Indeed, it is Allah who sustains us for as long as He wills.
