Health Is More Important
陳豔豔
Wealth or health? Many would choose the former over the latter. In the past, I too would have chosen wealth, but after last winter vacation, I completely changed my view.
“Uncle Li is suffering from cancer. Let's go to see him tomorrow.” When my father told me the bad news, I could hardly believe my eats. Uncle Li has been a good friend to my father for years and had always been kind to me. In the morning, I often saw him wearing his track suit① and doing exercises. He looked so healthy and energetic②。
I continue to hope that some mistake had been made in his physical examination until I saw him lying in the hospital bed with my own eyes. He was very different from the energetic man I remembered doing his exercises.
We were aware that he must be bearing great pain, so we tried to comfort③ him, encouraging him to pull through. He just nodded with tears shining in his eyes. I turned back for fear that I couldn't keep back my tears.
On the way home, I was deep in thought. I asked myself: If money was everything, could it buy health? Of course not. Health is the most important of all.
「詞語解釋」
①track suit(田逕)運動服
