Canton-i , Queens Bay, Penang

I was with some friends at the Canton-i Restaurant at QB.  I was asked to order the food for all of them and as usual, I ordered some Tim Sum , noodles , congees and some pork and grilled chicken. The taste was very good and the restaurant is very famous and it is part of a franchise group. The restaurant was besides the point.

My friend, M is already  74 years old and he has not gone for any medical checks for the past 15 years. Recently, two of his friends came from Japan to visit him. He told me that one of them has a fourth stage cancer and he was only 60 , recently retired from work.  According to him, his friend is only waiting to die as the cancer is uncurable.

Their visit  wake him up and M went for his medical check a few weeks ago after his friends has gone back to Japan.  He was very happy with the medical result. His Doctor told him that he is 17 kilogram over weight  and otherwise, he is in perfect health. His Doctor's advise is for him to drink a lot of water and keep exercising to reduce his excessive weight.

It is amazing how he can maintain his good health.  He is staying alone while his family is in Japan.  He goes for one night stands to keep his sex life healthy   and perhaps, he has a female companion to take care of him.  He  loves to play mahjung , golf  and watch porns to spend his time.  He drinks and smokes very much.

Life is so strange. Those people who spend their time taking good care of their health , yet their health failed them and or those , who live as well as he can, they live a longer and a more healthy life.  It is so incredible and ironical as well in its outcome.  Life lives in a strange way.

Namaste.
