I did not write this - but WOW does it speak to my heart!!! Worth the read.

Barely the day started and... it's already six in the evening.
Barely arrived on Monday and it's already Friday... and the month is already over... and the year is almost over... and already 40, 50 or 60 years of our lives have passed... and we realize that we lost our parents, friends.
and we realize it's too late to go back...
So... Let's try, despite everything, to enjoy the remaining time...
Let's keep looking for activities that we like...
Let's put some color in our grey...
Let's smile at the little things in life that put balm in our hearts.
And despite everything, we must continue to enjoy with serenity this time we have left. Let's try to eliminate the afters...
I'm doing it after...
I'll say after...
I'll think about it after...
We leave everything for later like ′′ after ′′ is ours.
Because what we don't understand is that:
Afterwards, the coffee gets cold...
afterwards, priorities change...
Afterwards, the charm is broken...
afterwards, health passes...
Afterwards, the kids grow up...
Afterwards parents get old...
Afterwards, promises are forgotten...
afterwards, the day becomes the night...
afterwards life ends...
And then it's often too late....
So... Let's leave nothing for later...
Because still waiting see you later, we can lose the best moments,
the best experiences,
best friends,
the best family...
The day is today... The moment is now...

We are no longer at the age where we can afford to postpone what needs to be done right away.
So let's see if you have time to read this message and then share it.
Or maybe you'll leave it for... ′′ later "...

‘People look miserable before Christmas. It saddens me more than anything – they’re either drunk or stressed to hell’

Oxygen is the mode through which energy is transported in the body cells. When we sit, inactive and wear tight shoes, circulation of oxygen in our feet becomes less and less.

🔈 RHOMBOID MUSCLE PAIN

Each one of us has had muscle pain at some point in our lives. Some people, however, experience worsening and commonly occurring muscle pain in certain areas. Among this is rhomboid muscle pain which is more common and worse than other pain and is one of the most frustrating pains. There are many people who don't know where exactly is rhomboid muscle situated, but they have felt pain in that region at some time or other for sure.
Pain of the rhomboid muscle is the pain, which is present in the upper back region just beneath the neck and between the upper shoulder blades.

CAUSES OF RHOMBOID MUSCLE PAIN
Bending over awkwardly or twisting the body, or lifting too heavily at the gym.

TREATMENT FOR RHOMBOID MUSCLE PAIN
Rest is important in healing of the sprained rhomboid muscle. You should try to relax and rest as much as possible. The tear in the muscle occurs as a result of the body's straining against resistance. Rehab with gentle stretching exercises will help in gradually providing relief from rhomboid muscle pain, but be sure not to overexert. Having a professional massage will also be beneficial and may speed up the recovery process.

EXERCISES

Exercise 1 - Scapular squeeze
While sitting or standing with your arms by your sides, squeeze your shoulder blades together and hold for 5 seconds. Do 3 sets of 10.

Exercise 2 - Thoracic stretch
Sit on the floor with your legs out straight in front of you. Hold your mid-thighs with your hands. Curl you head and neck toward your belly button. Hold for a count of 15. Repeat 3 times.

Exercise 3 - Mid-trap exercise
Lie on your stomach on a firm surface and place a folded pillow underneath your chest. Place your arms out straight to your sides with your elbows straight and thumbs toward the ceiling. Slowly raise your arms toward the ceiling as you squeeze your shoulder blades together. Lower slowly. Do 3 sets of 15. Progress to holding soup cans or small weights in your hands.

PREVENTION OF RHOMBOID MUSCLE PAIN
Always warm up before any type of exercise, as warming up and stretching help in loosening the muscles and improving blood circulation and flexibility.
