#11 What does "Take care" means?

Recently, something terrible happened to me. I'd call it a tragedy.

On last Sunday morning (yesterday), I fainted in the toilet. Yes, by myself. As aforementioned, no one comes to the toilet at friggin 8AM on Sunday. O God I was terrified. I thought I was going to die at the moment.

I was thinking that I might make the news coverpage 'A student found dead in the toilet'. 

Yes, in the process of me passing out I thought of that LOL haha. Thankfully I didn't faint for long, perhaps less than 5 minutes? I regain consciousness by my own and walked away so casually from the toilet like nothing happened ahahaha. Ok I was freaking out! Called my brother because I didn't want to let my parents worried (but he told them anyway grrr, scared the hell out of them)

What happened was, my gastric had just taken a toll on me. My stomach has deteriorated that bad :(

My stomachache was so bad that I had woken up from my sleep and hurriedly went to the toilet while I wasn't fully awaken yet. So that might be one of the contributing factor of me passing out. The pain was indescribable, I felt like crying. It was so terrible that I fainted. Gosh can u imagine how much  pain I was in? Suddenly I'm thinking how painful would dying be gulp.

Sometimes I didn't take my meal seriously. Sometimes, I ate merely just biscuits or bread. Sometimes I don't eat. Especially on weekends, I didn't have regular meals at all. 

And now come to think of it, I had taken this gift from God for granted.  I did not take care of my body well enough. You know how less useful you could be when you're sick? I've been in that phase years ago so why did I just reinvented another sickness. When you're sick, you aren't just being unhelpful to others but worse, you're going to be a trouble for them. Families will be worried at you, your friends would need to take you to the clinic, and etc.

Now I realized, how profound "Take care" means. It means to be in full responsibility of yourself. You need to love yourself, love your body, love your mind and love everything about you.

By loving means - EAT WELL, STUDY WELL, PRAY WELL, LIVE WELL.

Okay, lesson learnt. Not gonna skip any meal again (but at INTI you sure won't have any desire to eat, because nothing is tempting enough!) I don't want to experience fainting again...it was daunting. You felt like you have no control over your body, you were being put to sleep. You had no energy, your body would just deplete like a helpless sloth (LOL why am i giving sloth example again?)
Anyways, I regretted saying "I wonder how does fainting feels like"

Oh well, sakit itu kifarah dosa. And if it hadn't been because of this, I wouldn't bother to take my meal seriously and come to the realization that health is a gift from Allah to us, that we should treasure and take a good care of :')

Ok then, TAKE CARE of yourself, and may you always be in great health, wealth and happiness!

Best wishes,
Syafi.
