Things are better today. I appreciated the comments I got on my “What the F?” post. I agree, yeah sometimes I do probably think things to death. And yes, we all have “those days” from time to time- diabetes or no diabetes. Like I said, writing those posts in my “diary” (blog) made me feel much better. I said that it was good to see my diary again … and I meant it.
I also meant what I said about my martial arts and my health and being thankful for having the physical abilities that I am graced with. I try and maintain that positive outlook all the time.
With that being said and put aside for the time being, I would like to talk about a few other things today. I would really like to hear from you guys. If you don’t have the ability to comment, you should really see about becoming a member of dlife. We would love to have you contribute your two cents in the comment section below.
What types of things do you really LOVE to do?
What are some of your passions?
As people living with diabetes, perhaps our hobbies and true likes are a bit more special to us than a person who doesn’t live with a disease?
No?
Maybe I’m wrong? I don’t want to come across as being conceited or anything, but I feel, (at least in my case) that because I live with this disease, I look at life a little differently than others (/most)?
In other words, when you live life 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with your thoughts constantly on “worry mode” or whether or not you will go into a diabetic coma, or seize/pass out/get low/die ... it has an affect on your daily activities and outlook. In a sense, being diabetic can sometimes affect how much you enjoy certain things.
Do you agree to some extent? What do you just absolutely love to do? Do you think having diabetes, and perhaps living with the knowledge that someday your life may be cut short, causes you to appreciate things more?
Or do you experience the opposite? Do you feel like diabetes won’t impact your life, therefore not affecting how you enjoy the simple things?
Thanks for reading. –Andy Bell
