Wisdom- inexhaustible, uncorrupted resource

It is strikingly awing how wood ants can devour the core of a building, leaving it exterior looking intact and a gullible prized real estate. Most times reinforcing the foundation when there is a crack in the attic walls averts dangerous consequences.

The same reality happens when lack of self-care gnaws away the viscera, amking the ananlogy “prevention is better than cure” a dose of prudence from life and the body’s built-in designer.

That’s why I treat life and my body, more than ever, with utmost respect. As the saying goes ‘a stitch in time saves nine’. It’s too bad it took a surgical scalpel to make me even more proactive long after the ninth stitch was due and shall I say, overdue. It took a lot of listening to and humble obeying Wisdom to appreciate the mindbodyspirit connection.

When the psalmist sang that ‘though my body wears away, my spirits soars’, he was not joking.

Where there is breath there is life. Savouring the drink from the everlasting Well even without money is like hoouring the age of accountability. Of course, death which I describe in this case as slurping in the strong wine of ‘ignorance-is-bliss’ and sipping the slow poison of injustice is always on the lookout.

Above all, Wisdom is always there to clarify the difference in knowing an ouch and a yauwch!

As long as I am a human being earth-angel, I intend to attend to every breath and each cell and thank Universe for its unlimited viability of available resources. Indeed, that I need on a now to now- now for now basis.
