I am here now beside my bedroom window and looking outside. The rain is falling down, the wind is blowing while the leaves of the trees swaying and dancing. No bird can see because they are hiding and protecting themselves from the rain. What a beautiful magic of nature it is!

While im watching outside some past flash in my mind. Do you believe that I never experience playing in the rain when I was a kid? Or lets say in whole years of my existence. Funny right? Or unbelievable?

My childhood days

When I was a kid I never experience playing in the rain. Maybe I am the only one person that never experience that. I feel jealous to all kids playing and running outside in the rain. I am only watching them in the window and hoping that I can join them but it never happened that time.

I remember when I was a kid, I got sick if I get wet with rain water, I got sick also in too much exposure in the sun. In the other words, I get sick quickly. My immune system is too low. Even it is a drizzle only. If im playing and the drizzle is coming, I can hear my mom shout "Mhy go inside", even in playing outside under the sun my mom will shout too "Mhy come here, go inside". You know I really want to but I cant. I feel like I missed one half of my life. My childhood days are very boring, school and home is my routine. But I have nothing to do about it because If I didnt listen I will suffer a lot and get sick.

Time flies fast and my routine is still the same. Avoiding the rain and avoiding too much sunlight. When I am in my second year in High School I got sick. My mom thought its just a normal sick like I experience before but after a day or 2 my condition got worst. I cant breath easily, I cant sleep, im not comfortable if I will lie down,sit down, if I will stand up or whatever. And I feel pain. My parents rushed me into the hospital because I cant breath. After some medical examinations and laboratories done, they found out that my left lungs is getting smaller than the right one. I was confined in the hospital for almost one week. When my condition is a little bit okay I got release in the hospital. And because I am studying that time its very hard for me. My room is in the 2nd floor of the building and I need to go up and down in the stairs most of the time. Every time I go up and down the stairs I feel like I'm running out of breath. I got to the point where I didn't want to go to school. I want to give up but my mom didnt give up. She always with me going to school and pick me up too. She is the one who carrying my bag and all my school things.She talked to all my teachers to excuse me in all physical activities because of my condition. And I am very thankful for her.I cant imagine the sacrifice she did for me.

After a year of continous drinking of my medicine, vitamins and many more, my condition become better and better. But my mom was more strict to me than before. No more hang outs with my friends, just stay at home. And I accepted that all without any complain.

Until now I never experience to go out and get wet in the rain and I think I will never experience that until I die.Yes thats the reason why I am a health conscious. I am taking care of myself now and I dont want to experience that again. I thought that time was the end of my life. I cant imagine I experienced that.

My gosh........My tears is falling down and I am very emotional right now while Im writing this. Imagine I surpassed that trials in my life. Thank God Im still alive and thanks to my mom who sacrifice a lot for me. My Dad was working in abroad that time. Its hard for her also taking care of me with her own self only. I love you mom....

And to all of us here please take care of your health. Eat healthy food, take enough hours of sleep, do an exercise and love yourself. Dont abuse yourself. I know you can but we are a human only. We get tired and our body get tired too. Let our body rest. Health is wealth. Always remember that. I know many of my readers here always sleep late but please change your routine. Because it can't be returned once it's there.

To ensure good health: eat lightly, breath deeply, live moderately, cultivate cheerfulness, and maintain an interest in life -William Londen
