Don`t worry choose Happy

  Some years ago, singer Bobby McFerrin released a little song called   ‘Don`t worry be happy’. That little song really greated my nerves. My dad said to me once; Every day, be grateful for at least one thing. This was during a period of my life when I had fibromyalgia, a condition where pain is a constant companion. Granted I didn`t share my condition with my father, I felt he wouldn`t be able to relate. So he said, be grateful for being alive, what I thought, but didn`t say out loud, was, how can I be grateful for being alive when I am in such pain and suffering? I did`t find an answer that day, or for many days after that. For the longest time, I believed that in order to be happy, some external experience or circumstance creates feelings of happiness. For example, if I was in love, I would feel happy. If I had a good job with a good salary, I would be happy. I really didn`t fit in with corporate structures, so I felt very frustrated with the kind of work I was doing, (the medical

Taking responsiblity for ourselves and our health

I cured myself of fibromyalgia. I had fibromyalgia for close to ten years. It`s a debilitating condition characterised by constant pain of the soft tissues, fatigue and brain fog. At the time, doctors were not familiar with the condition, there were no tests or helpful advice, other than anti depressants and sleeping tablets to manage the symptoms. I tried various powders and potions, without success. At the time, I was working at a medical aid administrator, which is similar to the insurance industry, a highly stressful environment.  I read widely on the cause of illnesses and why some people develop auto immune diseases. In time, I became convinced that a condition like fibromyalgia starts with immense stress to the nervous system, such as physical or psychological trauma. This state triggers an auto immune response from the body. If this highly stressed state of being continues for a prolonged period of time, the body becomes incapable of healing itself.

Living a life with meaning

My mother and grandmother were both nursing sisters. And apparently very good ones too, when I asked my family about them. When it was time for me to choose an occupation, I chose to work behind the scenes, in pathology and later on, in medical aid administration. I didn`t know myself when it was time to choose a profession, who does at eighteen years old? Instead of working with people, I chose to work with analysing blood samples and specimens, and later on, with statistical data. It was only years later, having what I consider, a constructive middle age crises, when I felt a need for meaning and purpose, that I started to consider working with people. One of the most influential books I`ve read, is titled Man`s search for meaning, written by Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl. I`ve often re-read this book, it remains an awe inspiring insight as to how his struggles and suffering in the death camps distilled in Viktor a tremendous love for his fellow man. The message of his work is tha
