“Morning Nurse!”
“Oh, morning Jon! You’re awake?”
“Yeah, I slept well.”
“You seem very cheerful today.”
“Really? Why?”
“You never greet me. And don’t smile either. You were a dead man yesterday remember?”
“Hahaha… Well, yes, I came back. Let’s just get this operation over and done with so I can get outta here shall we?”
“Sure, I will get the doctor. Please take your breakfast. You must be hungry.”
“I’m fine. I had the leftover egg from dinner. But I’ll still eat.”

I scared a lot of people with my last couple of entries. But it wasn’t about making a dramatic impact or rocking the world per say. It was honestly how I felt at that time. And for a while, I wallowed on and even lost myself in the realms of life and death.
And sometimes when this happens, once the brain gives up, the body doesn’t last much longer. I’m of the opinion its mind over matter. A living body without a soul cannot survive even if stuffed with medication and life support blah blah.
I’m sorry if I shut a lot of friends out. I needed time to myself. Time to grope around, to stand up by myself. Several events yesterday have scarred me deeply, even for life. Here I was, bleeding both physically and mentally and I came to realize the importance of life, the meaning of life, the elixir to survival in the harshest conditions.
God teaches us lessons all the time. You never stop learning in life. Till you’re dead of course.
