So You Got Sick?

Douse the fire, but prevent too.

So you got sick?

You didn’t care

for your precious body,

but now you do,

what will you do now?

Let me tell you a story

to drive the point home.

You wanted lush vegetation,

but got a scrub fire.

It’s spreading rapidly,

you’re worried.

You need to stop the fire.

read it, the cure,

but prevention is needed too,

to prevent future fires.

Your have to

remove dry biomass,

so no devil gets the chance

to commit arson.

Tighten your patrol,

Prevention is protection.

Einstein said:

“Clever people solve problems,

but wise people avoid them.”*

So be wise,

focus on prevention.

Avoid irritants,

whether accidental or by choice.

Just stay away,

and your fire

will calm down.

Health will return,

lushness will be restored.
