Life is a risk and then you die!

 

So this week has been abit of a crap week, we all caught stupid coughs and colds which is all we had but was enough to make us come to a stop and feel rubbish. Still not 100% but we'll get over it, just remind me never to jinx myself by saying I never get ill cos I only went and did 🤦🏻‍♀️😂😂! At least my immune system is working how it needs to though right!

It's the cold and flu season, we're all going to get something or other and I suppose with us not mixing with people like we usually do and then going back to work and school which for me I love, we're bound to catch things. Somehow, I think this is going to be a long winter 🤦🏻‍♀️ but it's not that's bothered me this morning. My son really struggled to sleep last night, he's a little thinker which in a way is a good thing, he's a smart lad so him learning to think outside a box is good 😊. What's bothered him is the time that he's missed with his family, his friends although he's now back at school and in a way, his Xbox has been his lifeline because he's being able to socialise that way. The media is all doom and gloom and talking about another lockdown, he's thinking he's only just got his grandparents and nana back and I guess he's thinking what if something happens to them that isn't virus related and he's not been able to see or hug them?  You can't live your life by what ifs and maybes but he is right, with everything going off it makes you think, it's hard for us to comprehend let alone children and teenagers.

We do the right the things, hands, masks, distance from people we don't know as best as we can but it's still an invisible risk but isn't that just life in general, one big risk?  We're born, we live and we die, obviously we all want to live and protect our family and friends so they can live the longest, happiest and healthiest life possible but at the end of the day life is one big risk. You can be sensible and do the right things, take precautions but we're still risking it by breathing. We as humans are social people, although they say if you have MS you tend to be antisocial, not me, I like to be around my family and friends and I rest when I need to.

I guess you just need to enjoy the moments whilst you can because there are no guarantees in life right?!
