Changing priorities and assumptions

--- Quote from: agentmolar on November 25, 2011, 11:29:53 AM ---Having said all of that. Denial of the inevitable demise of our own existence is the one reason we have civilization, progress, technology and generally a working economy. If it wasn't for the poor schmoes who got up and did their thankless and necessary jobs every day, we wouldn't have all the mod cons around us. I think the ethos of enjoying today is an important one, but remember that we owe it to each other and our little ones to carry on with our lives and jobs regardless. If you take the pure nihilist view of life to its extreme, then you might as well not attempt any great task in life as its just pointless. Frankly I would prefer to go to my grave doing something I love to the best of my ability. Friends, family, every one you know and love will leave you at the end. At the end of it all , all you have is your life, achievements and your memories. A life without interesting memories is going to be a big disappointment when you are in your wheel chair in the nursing home.
Yes I am drinking at the moment.

Try not to let the baskets get you down Sally.
What was the diagnosis of the heart scares btw ? Sounds like classic panic attacks to me ( I know how they feel unfortunately.)
And yeah life can be cruel, the world can be cruel and people can be cruel. Cherrish those you love.
libertee:
the heart scares were due to an increase of adrenaline where i was so stressed with stuff going on. With the ME my body doesnt efficiently eliminate hormones/toxins etc so the adrenaline was building up . I saw a heart consultant and had lots of tests and my heart is working perfectly fine ( touch wood dont want to jinx anything ) and my cholesterol levels are so low they are the same levels as a 19 year old athlete (which is all the vegetables/fruit/fish/pulses etc we eat apparrently)
I still have GTN spray but havent used it for a few months now. we have identified the triggers and for the most part they arent in my life anymore so things are chugging along okayish!
Klute:
Good to know the ticker is working well. Sounds like your kepping your distance from as many stress triggers as possible too. Take care.
