Don't worry, I am not down with a heart attack.
Sadly, someone I know was warded into hospital for suspected heart attack. He is not very old...38 this year only. He was jogging when he suddenly felt a very sharp pain in his heart. He exercises quite a bit, soccer, jogging etc. Still... =( Thankfully, he is feeling better already and just needs to see the cardiologist to figure out what's the problem)
I went to the gym yesterday...body combat...full body workout. I enjoyed it, though my heart was racing. But if felt really good working out that way.
Lately, I've been hearing news about people suffering from heart attacks, young people...apparently fit people...and I wonder why. Can heart attacks be caused by stress, anxieties, heartaches etc? maybe because they cause poor circulation in the blood vessels etc. (I am not a doctor haha, so I don't have the answer...but the bible does correlate the condition of a person's spirit with his/her health)
Singaporeans must learn to relax and spend more time building meaningful relationships. With all the depression that's going around, people are more prone to illnesses.
Some insightful verses from the bible:
"A man's spirit sustains him in sickness, but a crushed spirit who can bear?" Proverbs 18:14)
"A happy heart makes the face cheerful, but heartache crushes the spirit." (Proverbs 15:13)
"A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones." (Proverbs 17:22)

i also think the heart is very important. i've heard of people dying from heart break! can you imagine. so traumatising!!
I think that's absolutely possible man. That's why we got to learn not to take things too hard and not cry too much. =)
