what natural blessing do you have?

Maybe it's the wrong way to put but I don't know another way to put it in. I'll just explain. What's the good thing about your body regarding physical health and conditions? Something that stays the same, so you don't really need to worry about your health.

For me, even though I have a big appetite, I'm a naturally thin person because of the faster metabolism or I think I believe which means I don't really need to worry about stroke and heart attack.

I also got a blessed eyesight no matter how much time I spend staring at the screen, I don't have a need to wear any glasses or contact lenses.

I'm quite healthy, so I don't get much flu or anything like that.

Share your opinions.

Massive penis.

...I'm joking. I'm utterly without blessing. It makes life more fun.

Me too, except I have trouble seeing and need glasses.

this is pretty interesting.. well I never get cavities even though I only brush my teeth once a day, and i'm pretty resistant to cold, I can walk outside in a shirt (this is canada) in the middle of winter and it will only start to bother me after 10 mins or so. -20c is about my limit. i also don't catch colds easily.

I'm quite unfortunate when it comes to health, especially genes. The only thing I can think of is that I'm born without wisdom teeth in my lower jaw. There are no roots, nothing. I'll only have to worry about two wisdom teeth when most people have to worry about four.

i guess old people who lost all their teeth have it best, they don't have to worry about any teeth :D

but seriously, how is that a good thing? i dont "worry" about wisdom teeth? it just helps chewing. I remember when I was young and I chewed with the back of my mouth when i didn't have wisdom teeth. it hurt so much. i can't image not having them (even just a pair).

I'm blessed with the ability to sense water temperature. Great for refilling tropical aquariums.

Also, I am in good health right now, without a cold or stuffy nose. That's always something to be thankful for.

Well.. My friends suspect I have plastic organs because I can consume alot of alcohole without becoming very drunk.
Personally I believe it's because i'm part finnish :D

Oh and I was born with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harelip which my mother considers a "blessing". She's christian. :roll:

While I look fine today (lots of plastic surgery) I personally consider it to be more a curse than a blessing.

Most people don't have enough room in their mouths for wisdom teeth, so they end up shifting all other teeth and making them all crooked. Also, very often wisdom teeth will come in all mushy and brown.. :eek:

I'll never have any wisdom teeth myself, and I've also never had cavities. My health in general is pretty good too. I'm a strong person mentally (not prone to depression or anything like that).

My family has a history of bad teeth, and dental complications. At least in Norway, it's common to get your wisdom teeth pulled, whether they are healthy or not. I don't have room for them, so if I had them in my lower jaw, I would have to have them pulled, just like I have to pull the ones in my upper jaw.

This is just the way I saw it. Then I guess I have no natural blessings when it comes to my body and health.

Blessings: 0.

Not born with a special skill... What I know of...

Uhm, I should have died about 18 times as a child, I guess that means I'm immortal :hrm:...

I eat a lot of terrible food, and normally eat very frequently, but I stay thin.

My only downside so far is my eyesight, though judging by family history, progressive organ failure will set in around age 50. For now, I rarely get sick and when I do I kick it fast, I stay strong no matter how lazy I get (and this winter has set a new record, I think), and I've always been a risk-taker and never really gotten hurt. The only time I've seen a doctor for illness or injury was a persistent flu when I was 21 (unfortunately it canceled my 21st birthday).

Still, if there's one thing I'm glad for, it's that I can take a fall--whenever I go airborne, I just tell the body, "Save me!" and it does.

A brain the size of a planet.

Great logic skills.

Very agile.

All of which come from my Aryan and Italian roots.

Heh, one of my natural failings is being a jerk sometimes.

Well that's just rude and untrue.

I'm sorry to be a rain cloud, but just because you are thin doesn't mean you aren't at risk for heart attack or stroke. There are a lot of people (including myself) who are thin, but have high cholesterol - either due to genetics or bad eating habits and lack of exercise. In which case the risk of heart disease is still there. So thin people are not as much of an obvious risk of heart disease as people who are overweight, but that doesn't mean you are safe from it.


Anyhoo, as far as 'natural blessings', I've never had a cavity in my life. Not in my baby teeth or adult teeth - ever. I only brush once a day, floss a few times a week and go to the dentist anywhere from every 6-8 months, so nothing really extraordinary there. Which reminds me... I need to make an appointment...

I guesse it's my ability to sleep all the time everywhere I want. so i can go late to bed and the next day I get the hours I need in math class. :D And I also have a very sensitive nose. I can smell lot of things. (when I'm not sick. lol)

aww man I wish I had that! It's so hard for me to fall asleep. I need like pitch darkness and not a pin drop or my eyes open

Huh..... I have extra pointy teeth for meat! Carnivore!

I have a pretty slow metabolism, but Im pretty healthy. Its pretty easy for me to gain muscle. And every person in my except for one of my sisters and I has depression that they need pills for. Im pretty happy about that. And I sleep pretty light. I need ear plugs most of the time, which is a pain, but i hardly ever sleep through the alarm, and I can wake up pretty quickly most days. (except today >_< )

I guess you can call me blessed. :)

i forgot to mention something... i'm really good at controlling my lucid dreams, ever since I was little. maybe that's one of the reasons because when you're young you have an infinite imagination. I could do anything in my dreams and I still can - no limitations. I can fly as fast as an ICBM.

ICBMs are slow as molasses.
