Health, Hygiene and Fitness

Strange how people often take these for granted; especially me. Stricken with shingles due to my "heatiness", I was unfortunate to be given an O.O.C, with two weeks rest at home. Seems to be a standard procedure for every doctor to give 2 weeks rest for shingles.

Fate has been whimsical of late. If fate ever exists...I do not know whether I should be view it as half-full or half-empty. I think the sheer boredom will drive one to insanity, unless one does something fruitful. 2 weeks of MC+doing Admin work from 8 to 5 until June=time not to be wasted.

Ken Toh asked me recently whether I still thought of the Desert Rose.

At times, when I was blankly staring at the ceiling during BMT. But not as frequent. Not as much. Army really clears your confused, adolescent, childish, ____ (whatever description) mind. My fleeting infatuation is nothing, compared to the love our parents have for us (though the word "love" is general, as there are many classes, such as agape, phileo, eros, etc..more on that in the next topic, if I remember). It pales even much more compared to the love my Father has for me, which lasts forever.

So I told him, "No, not as much.No point thinking of it. Got many things to consider first, no need to rush in this sort of things...."
