The Irony of Life

Why is it that when one is told to eat healthy, the person manages to eat the food that is prohibited? And why is it that when NO smoking and drinking has been emphasized the urge to do it is irresistible?

Like my sister who has hypercholesterolemia insists she wants Mang Inasal instead of fish.

Or my friend who is diabetic but ate halo-halo with ice cream like there is no tomorrow?

Or my friend who forgets he is an alcoholic and asks for a beer because he just wants to hit the sack and call it the night.

Or somebody I know who can't stop smoking until he vomited fresh blood because he has gastric erosions?

You really have to get sick to make you realize that ... YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE.
