Hence, there is a time and chance for me to visit my grandmother.Going for a field trip to hospital is my one of my favourite trips for soul-searching.You can see how fragile life is,how short life is.Sadness, happiness, love, loneliness and sorts of feelings filled all the wards and hospital compound.We were welcomed by my aunties and uncles who went there earlier.My mum and I went to see her.I was hardly recognized her.She look so old and painful.She was like being embedded with so many wire and tubes on her necks and nose.I did not know where the hell other tubes being inserted in her other parts of body.We were told that, she was being injected with some kind of strong drug to induce her sleeping.I felt so sad and somehow grateful.
We should start creating good nutritional plan when we are young.Watch our diet;Even if we could not resist good food, EXERCISE.There was no short cut to stay healthy.It was a life investment.My grandmother was quite stubborn as she did not follow her strict diet.The stubbornness, combined with laziness can create problems you may regret for your own actions.I did not want myself to in my grandmother's shoes.Even if I died, I hope i will stay the way I am now. Like Marilyn Monroe quoted, "I don't want to get old. I want to stay like I am". And she did.Marilyn Monroe was found dead from an overdose of sleeping pills on August 5, 1962.
Tribute to Norma Jean AKA Marilyn Monroe
Candle in the wind by Elton John
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend never did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe
