We are in control of our bodies
Until we let stress take over
Decompose our immune system
We are in control of our bodies
Until we decided to stress eat
Have a sugar takeover
Heal slower, grow bacteria faster
Lose a limb
We are in control of our bodies
Until we are stressed and need a smoke break
Blood vessels get clogged
Tissues die
Amputee
We are in control of our bodies
Until we need to rest all day and not get out of bed
No stretching no exercising
Have chronic preventable pain
“A body in motion, stays in motion”
We are in control of our bodies
We are in control of our health
We are in control of what we consume
We are in control of our daily activities
We are in control of our bodies

I took my son and niece to Gori, a small town in Georgia where Joseph Stalin was born. They talked me into visiting the Stalin's Museum, the largest in the post-Soviet space. I had resisted going there because I just can't stand the monster and know enough about him, or so I thought.

It can be difficult sometimes to stay regimented, thanks for the reminder that we're in control of how we move and what we consume! Nice poem.
Perfect read for "New Year's Resolutions" time, I'll say.
I try to look after myself and don't stress if I can help it
