I’ve heard ppl say “we’re gonna die anyway so you may as well eat whatever you want.” Or you might’ve heard “life is short, enjoy whatever food you want.” The 1st phrase of each saying is absolutely true. We’re all gonna die and life is indeed short. What they’re not saying (maybe they haven’t realized), is that most ppl who ate whatever they wanted during most of their lives die a different kind of death. So many who’ve made bad food choices for long periods of time end with a non communicable disease, sometimes more than one, and they die. These deaths happen daily, we just don’t hear about them. We just see a death notice in the newspapers or hear about it in the media. Sadly the majority of these ppl die slow, painful, miserable deaths. They suffer for weeks, months, sometimes years before they die. Usually after spending all their money on hospital bills and medication, while love ones pray and mourn for them daily. Having cookouts and go fund me to raise money for their expenses, feeling hopeless, abandoned with long, lonely nights, laying in regret for the food choices they made.
So I agree, life is short and we’re all gonna die. Death is inevitable, but I honestly believe some are premature. Some weren’t called home by the Lord, they chose to go home by eating whatever and whenever they wanted. We’re all gonna die, yes, but we won’t all die the same.
Rip to those that have passed through this process. 🙏🏾.
To those that are still here and walking this path, you already know what the end looks like, you’ve seen it happen to so many others. Some of you have been lucky enough to get a doctor’s warning, some won’t have that privilege. Save yourself, make better food choices. Your family and friends and your future are depending on you.
