I live each day indifferently. Get up early and go to work. Come home from work and do a little housework and hobbies. Then get some sleep to prepare for work the next day. I've lived like that for many years. I want each day to pass quickly. But I always regret it after months or years have passed.
Especially when it's New Year's Day. I feel like I wasted my time. It's like dedicating my life to working and making money in a capitalist world every day. I console myself by saying that it's okay. There's still plenty of time. Of course, for me at 25 years old, I'm considered an adult. There is still time to learn more about the world.
The event that marked the turning point in my life had arrived. I remember the events of that day well. After work, I drive my motorcycle home as usual. It had just rained heavily that day. Even though by the time I drove home the rain had stopped. But the road is still slippery. I drive at a lower speed than the standard. But a motorcycle crashed into me.
At that moment, I felt a shock that was difficult to describe. It was only a split second before it hit the road. I made up my mind that I probably wouldn't survive. Images of past memories quickly flashed through my mind. Thank you to my parents for raising me well. Thank you for everything that has come into my life. If possible, I would like to go back in time and do many things, such as
Spend more time with your family. Use your free time to develop yourself. Even if it was only for a short time before he passed out. But that made me realize the value of life.
two days later I woke up in the room
ICU
The front picture only has life-saving equipment. The cordage was all over my body. I felt a lot of pain and numbness in my head. It hurts like something hit my head. I tried to piece together the story of what happened. When I woke up there was no one in the room. After a while, a nurse came in. The nurse said I had been unconscious for two days. He had a blood clot in his brain so he had surgery to take out the blood that had accumulated.
But luckily my skull didn't get hit and it was badly deformed because I had a helmet to help.
Then the nurse went to report the symptoms to my parents. Soon my parents came into the room, feeling extremely happy. A face filled with tears I haven't seen any of you express this kind of expression in a long time. Dad held my hand and pressed it to my face. At that moment, tears flowed from my eyes with gratitude. Even though I couldn't make a sound because the breathing tube was stuck in my throat,
But I am sure that my feelings will reach you through reading the words I speak. Both my father and mother leaned over and hugged me, reassuring me that it was okay. Glad your child is recovering.
After leaving the hospital I immediately took out accident insurance and quit my job. Even though you can take a leave to recuperate. But I would like to take more time to reflect. How long has it been since I lived a slow life? I've always been in such a hurry that I've forgotten some important things.
I live each day with the awareness that our bodies are impermanent. If there is anything that I want to do, I do it as quickly as possible under the conditions and limitations that I have. I don't want to regret the time later anymore. I spend most of my life at home with my parents. Planting trees is a hobby. Every morning I wake up and admire the beauty of those plants while watering them.
Watching them grow every day, I want to thank nature from my heart for creating beauty for humans to admire. From a hobby transformed into a career I sold plants through groups on social media apps and made some money.
What I have returned to doing is drawing. I've liked drawing since I can remember. At that time, my house didn't have internet yet. And I don't like watching television either. Most of my free time is spent drawing. But as I got older, I drew less. There are other things to distract me. both online and social games
In addition, while studying at university, I was very close to friends. The free time available for hobbies disappears.
I have a big goal: to make my parents as happy as possible. Both physical happiness and mental happiness I forgot his importance during my youth. At this time, I would like to return the favor. Spend as much time as you can with your parents before you no longer have the opportunity. I do most of the housework for my mother. I sometimes help my father with the gardening.
I could feel that they were happy as well.
It can be said that the accident was an important turning point that made me realize the value of life again. I am grateful for everything that helped me recover that day. If my life is lost My dreams and happiness would have disappeared as well. Recovering with the body still normal At least it was just a blood clot in the brain.
It does not affect the intellect. This is what I am most happy about, like I have my life back again.
