At any moment...

Your health could change.

This weekend we went to the lake and had a good time - the sun was hot, and the beer was cold. After six hours of being on the lake, and docking the boat - a friend called in need of a tow on the lake. Joe ran down the hill at the cottage, and his leg got caught on a chair - and he tripped and feel on his knee. When he feel down- he keys and wallet flew up in the air, and luckily didnt get lost in the lake. Joe's kneecap poped out of place and Joe was screaming from pain. After the moment passed, a big debate was whether or not Joe needed to go to the ER. He was obviously in a lot of pain, but I guess not enough to pay for help. Joe poped the knee back into place himself and decided ibuprofen would be enough to take the edge off. The worse part of this situation in my eyes, would have been if Joe had to have surgery and laid up for a month. In Joe's eyes, the worst part would have been missing IU's opening game this Thursday. Of course, as life is beautiful - things worked out ok- and actually probably happened for a reason - it gave us time to slow down for a day and just relax. It just goes to show you at any moment your health could change -therefore, thank God everyday for your good health and abilities.
