2017 was the last time I got sick. It’s been 5 years. Excellent health is the TRUE WEALTH. That is so very true. [14 Images]

I watched “Avatar: The Way of the Water” in 3D yesterday. While waiting for the screening time at the movie theater, I was able to get my second Pfizer booster dose.

Last August and September 2021, I had two Moderna jabs, followed by my first Pfizer booster shot in January this year, which were all to keep myself safeguarded against the coronavirus or COVID-19.

Yesterday, I was initially queried by a doctor and a registered nurse if I was feeling sick. I promptly replied that I wasn’t. With that question, I realized how fortunate I am to be always in the pink of health. After having a scrumptiously healthful grilled chicken lunch and a trip to Starbucks, I felt powerfully energized — as always !

Moreover, I get to sleep very well at night. I never feel any headaches, body pains, and other symptoms of critical illnesses. Fortunately, I NEVER EVER caught COVID-19 as well. Thanks to the BEST COVID-19 vaccines — Moderna and Pfizer — I got. Above all, I want to underscore and I am so very proud to share that I have NEVER GOTTEN SICK SINCE 2017 !

Yes, that’s right. That was five years ago when I was prescribed Vitamin B tablets by my physician because my blood pressure plummeted that time. It was due to my sudden shift in my sleeping time, going to bed at midnight. I then felt weak and that sense of pins and needles in my hands.

Anyway, again it has been FIVE YEARS since I visited a doctor to attend to my health disturbance. Luckily, I am 100-percent proud to say that I have also NEVER GOTTEN HOSPITALIZED nor confined in a hospital for a day or two ! As in NEVER EVER ! Haha !

I’m just so very happy that I’m concluding another year — 2022 — with myself being in the BEST OF HEALTH. I do agree that excellent health is the true wealth and it is certainly a huge blessing.

I hope to reach 100 years old or more. Hahaha. I’m interested to see the future, whether it’s a utopia or a dystopia. I want to see if I was able to ACHIEVE EVERYTHING I WANTED IN MY LIFETIME, which I’m
100-percent confident I will. Hahaha.

My secret to my constantly excellent health? Just be mindful of the toxins and what you put and allow inside your body. I also follow my well-educated parents’ lifestyle and diet, that is why I have NEVER EVER gone wrong, wellness-wise.
