First Day of School

Monday, February 09, 2009

It's the first day back to the field of acquiring knowledge, better known as school. As much as I would like to sound enthusiastic about it, there really wasn't anything to be excited about. The pessimism is largely accounted for by the inability to get a bank loan for an intended stay in Scotland for a semester. That's the first thing that was told to us bright and early this morning. Not really a great way to start the day, let alone the semester.

On the brighter side, I've had a a perfect score of BGLs today. Let's discount the low that I got in the morning. It was 6.4 pre lunch, 6.3 after school, 5.1 pre dinner and 5.9 after the workout at the gym. I love how my numbers look today plus how I've eaten everything healthy. Bread, ban mian at school and a homecooked dinner.

I guess that's how it is with life sometimes. It may not change as quickly as my blood sugars, but there are days where we feel like letting go and others where the sun seems to shine brighter than any other day. I've seen my fair share of the highs and lows of this disease. Many times the bad times would last for a period of many months until a wake up call at the doctor's office or get a period of fantastic numbers after a diabetes camp and getting motivated to get my life in control. It can be mirrored to how we would feel really close to God after a church camp but lose the drive to pray after a few months. Alike the management of my diabetes, my spiritual life has seen many highs and many lows. All I know is that no matter how many low points I get in my spiritual life, God constantly brings me back up again. I'm quite sure He'll do the same for my diabetes.
