It can be put under scrutiny - the more you sleep the greater you tire. And I am very tired !

Aimlessly idling in bed or in front of a computer screen for an entire day can be disastrous. And I am in the middle of great disaster !

No respect for time and condition, allowing them to overcome you , can be pathologically distressing. And I am in distress !

The moral of the story is, that, not subjecting your body to motion or any kind of movement fills one with all the negativity that can ever be consumed. How many departments of our very complex but resilient system can fail us in such circumstances is a consequence which we must all face.

For those with energy and youth the understanding of the repercussions is sometimes not forth coming. Understandable. Age is better understood by those that age. Youth actually thinks time is moving backwards for them. Which is why the excesses come in. And in some instances remain.

But as the time taken to traverse that short distance in the home, increases; as the vision blurs on common objects, as our memory plays truant with us, as we start forgetting the reason for entering a particular room or why we have beckoned someone to us, THEN is the time that cometh, with a dark shroud covering us all and pulling us into oblivion, to accept the harsh reality of wasteful age.

A wasted age is a curse for humanity. Not provoking our faculties into a functional mode is a sacrilege. Resigning ourselves to that unaccented fact that the time has come to slow down and step back, is a resignation whose application should never be accepted.

If you push, life shall push you too. If not, be prepared to perish in ignominy..

I wish it not for myself .. or for any self …
