Red Warning Light

You are driving along in your car, happy as the day is long, when all of a sudden on pops that little red light on your dash board. It is your oil warning light. Now, there are two ways you can deal with this intrusion:
1. Is to cut the wire leading to the light. It goes out and on you go unaffected by that annoying little light...Troubles is, now things will get worse until the car finally comes to a full stop and a big bill has to be faced.
Or, 2. You can put some oil in the car and find out why it is using up oil. Is it just that you have forgotten to top up the oil or is it that you have a leak. Find out and you can stop a major problem occuring. So the Red light is your friend not a nuisance.
If this is so with the car, and everyone would agree it would be silly just to cut the cable, why when we have a headache do we take a tablet and think that it will cure the headache rather than just hide it? Things like headaches indicate that something is out of balance. Now, that might be just that you have been overdoing it, or that you need new glasses, or something else.
Be grateful that the little red light is there in your body.
