Life and death have always been a heavy topic, but it is also an unavoidable topic. I still remember when I was a child, adults didn't say the word "death" directly. Maybe the post-90s generation, who is about my age, will certainly hear euphemisms like saying that relatives will become stars in the sky to protect us after they die, or that they are actually "asleep".

Why talk about "death"? This is mainly because too many things have happened this year, such as the death of COVID-19, the death of NBA star Kobe Bryant and his daughter in an air crash and so on. In fact, as long as you pay attention to TV broadcasting and online media on weekdays, you must know many other examples.

"Live every day as if it were your last" and "You never know which will come first, tomorrow or accident", but few people really care. The living will wake up the next morning every day, and then start their own lives step by step, but each has its own way of living. Some people's lives are like perpetual motion machines that never stop working; And some people live like calm water, doing almost the same thing every day, and even have a taste of quiet years. When we are too busy to think or are in a steady state in our daily life, we will inevitably feel that "death" is far away from us, but there are a few things I want to say again.

First, cherish the time with your parents. It has become an enviable thing to find a satisfactory job at home after graduation. Many people will choose to work in other places for a while before returning to China, or simply stay outside. In addition, after marriage, most of the time will be spent taking care of the family, and the rest of the time will be distributed between parents, so generally speaking, there is really not much time left for us to accompany our parents.

The biggest fear is that in case of an accident, it may really leave a great regret. I still remember that when I was in primary school, a public service advertisement for foot washing by CCTV touched almost everyone's heart, so the teacher gave us an after-school homework to wash my parents' feet. Then my mother was particularly embarrassed at night and finally did it once or twice. Many times, the expression of love between us and our parents is very implicit, especially with the growth of age, many people may never say the words "I love you" to their parents all their lives.

A few weeks ago, my uncle died of cancer. He just retired last year. He thought he would enjoy retirement, but it was the beginning of tragedy. He often went to the hospital all the year round and finally died of pain. Many people regret that he has no time to enjoy retirement. But in my opinion, he has no time to enjoy his son's filial piety and the company of his grandparents except not coming and enjoying retirement.

Of course, most people are chronically ill when they get old, but you should think the worst of everything. In case your parents are really seriously ill or have Alzheimer's disease, many times you can only watch them get worse day by day until you can only lie in bed and struggle for the last time. At that time, you just wanted to be with them.

Cultivate a healthy lifestyle from now on. Nowadays, the increasingly common sudden death has caused a great sensation among a group of people, especially those "social animals" in the workplace. Take myself and my friends around me for example. Sitting for a long time, staying up late and eating irregularly are all normal. It is in such a high-intensity working state that I have begun to step into the threshold of 30 years old, and after 90 years of declining physical fitness, I can only remedy it in my own stubborn way, such as removing water from red beans and barley, preventing hair loss from black rice and sesame seeds, soaking my feet with ginger and red flowers, protecting my liver and resisting sugar and blue light ... All kinds of fancy "health-keeping" tricks cooperate with each other and are constantly exported. What impressed me deeply was that Orfila, a "health expert", swallowed various health products in a reality show.

Some people will say, I know it's not good, but with so much work, I have no time to exercise, so I can only eat health care products, otherwise what can I do? Do you want to resign? Of course not. You should really work hard when you are young, or you will fail if you wait until you are 40 and have nothing to do. I just want to remind you that the body is always a capital, something of 1. No matter how busy you are, don't treat your health badly. As for health care products, many are still psychological comfort. Get up and do more activities if you have nothing to do. Even if you just get up to go to the toilet after work, don't forget to exercise your muscles and look at the scenery outside the window. Let's change from now on while we still have a chance.

Third, prepare for a rainy day and leave a good retreat. Prepare for the worst, make the most comprehensive preparations, and prepare the necessary insurance for yourself and your family. In particular, some serious illness insurance, once unfortunately suffering from serious illness, the follow-up treatment will be a huge sum of money, because many drugs are not covered by medical insurance. I believe that everyone has seen crowdfunding in the circle of friends, and the reason for launching it is to raise medical expenses. So don't bother, it is really necessary to know about insurance, especially now there are more and more types of insurance products, and it is easy to step on the pit if you are not careful.

The above three points are what I think we should do when we are alive. Finally, I want to encourage you. As long as we are alive, there is still room for change. Don't mention the word "do it tomorrow" again. There will be many tomorrows. A small step from now on may become a springboard for future changes ~
