Listen to your body :What you don't expect to happen.

Listen to your body :

Hello guys ,i have a story to share with you and in that story there is a moral value or whatever you wanna call it ,which is about you owning your body and about the ability to choose what to do about it ,it's also a story about how your body can respond to you .
That day we were having a nice barbecue family party and i was responsible for cutting and preparing the meat ,with my cousins in the kitchen we were supposed to deliver the last kebabs but we didn't had any meat ,so i went to cut a piece from the sheep leg ,as i took the knife with my right hand and with a rushing motion without paying attention to my left hand holding the meat i cut  my index finger ,it wasn't a serious cut , it started bleeding slowly i took a piece of cotton filled with rubbing alcohol and i put it on my finger .
At that moment my head dozed off ,my head was getting heavier and felt nausea in my stomach ,my legs gave up ,i looked around with half closed lids and the last face i remember seeing is my cousins astonished faces and my uncle coming toward me , i actually fell on the ground , my head hit the closet behind me and in moments every motor function in me stopped my eyes closed automatically ,i saw blackness , my uncle dragged me on the ground and put my legs on a bench and a pillow on my head so blood would pump into my head so i would gain consciousness ,seconds later which seemed hours to me ,i started to feel my legs and i could hear around me ,i started to breath with fast pace ,then slowly i returned to my normal awareness ,sweating profusely they gave me a glass of water mixed with sugar ,then i got up .
The moral of this story guys is obvious ,my body made an urgent call for me ,a call to slow down ,a call to take more care ,be more wise ,and the way my body made the call wasn't the least comfortable,if you guys hadn't encountered such situations in your life good for you ,but as a message from friend to friend ,listen to your body ,get good sleep ,eat well,look into other facets of your life,be it that you're spending too much on some ,or less on others ,physical ,moral,sexual,emotional,spiritual ,psychic ... whatever it is ,take a closer look at it ,and you'll be just fine .

This is all i wanted to share with you guys ,take care ,and see you next time Peace.
