Six Months to Live

Through my interviews and research for my new book project, I'm often confronted with people who, God knows, don't have all that long to live. And today, while jogging, I suddenly asked myself: "What would you do if you only had six months left?"

 

You have to keep your body fit and strong at all times

Love your body as you love your soul. You are the one who decides. 

* Your body is your boat, sailing across the sea of ​​life. Guide it with a compass and a purpose so that your boat sails where you most want to be. And you have to keep your boat strong and seaworthy to withstand any weather. 

*One thing is clear, of course. Anyone who doesn't like themselves and drifts through life is simply an ant in the world, running where the crowds are.

* I keep fit and healthy with traditional Japanese Jiu-Jitsu.

 

Replacing the old one

 A person normally has a total of 32 teeth. Food is grasped, chewed, and ground with the teeth. An additional function is the formation of sounds (especially the "s" sound) and, of course, the social function of the dentition.  

Reason enough to pay appropriate attention to your teeth and take proper care of them. The most common disease of teeth and humans in general is tooth decay, also known as dental caries. Hardly anyone can escape this dental deficiencies these days; almost 99% of the population has more or less cavities. 

And yet, it makes a big difference whether I still have all 32 teeth in my mouth or have already lost some due to poor care, unhealthy diet, unfavorable living conditions, or perhaps even accidents. In any case, every bit of tooth left in my mouth must be cared for and preserved. 

Basic dental care is done with a toothbrush.  

Now I would like to encourage you to go to the bathroom and take a look at the condition of your own toothbrush.  

This is because they are often so worn that they no longer do a good job when brushing your teeth. What can you do to keep your brush in good condition for a long time? Rinse your toothbrush thoroughly under running water after brushing and mechanically clean any impurities by briefly tapping the brush on the edge of the sink. This will also dry it faster. 

When not in use, store the brush in a dry container with the bristles facing up. Replace your toothbrush with a new one at regular intervals. Worn-out bristles are bent at the ends, which means they no longer clean as effectively and can also injure your gums. These frayed bristles also provide a larger surface area, which in turn makes it easier for bacteria to adhere. After, for example, an inflammatory condition in the mouth (gum inflammation, flu, or herpes), you should get a new toothbrush. At the very least, clean or disinfect the old brush thoroughly.

 

Lungs - air - breath - and dog poo

Bang! I have just crushed a fly and taken her life. How easy it is to convert from life to death.
When a human dies, often the lungs are involved. The breathing once gone: dead.

Our lungs are hard-working organs. Until the age of retirement, they breathed in and out about 500 million times. The bronchi receive 10,000 litres of air daily.

Of course, throughout a smoker’s lungs, this would be just air and smoke. The lungs of a healthy adult have more than 300 million alveolar cells, which spread out to cover an area as large as a football field.

One question: For example, if a doggy would poop on this sports field. Very close to the goal of
course. The goalkeeper will surely be annoyed by that. What do you do in this case?

Answer: The doggy off the pitch, and the dog pile was cleaned up.

Something similar would be the effect of a cigarette on the bronchi. The smoke adheres to them, and when "the dog is not chased away", the lung will be full of shit soon!
