Mother Did Tell Me This

Few things in life are as important as good health or more misunderstood. The will to live, constant thought about the world around us, anticipation of the future, lifestyle choices, contribution to the public good, health and vitality are inter-related and dependent each upon the others. Those are human resources and they depend upon family, society and community institutions to cultivate and properly use them. When this opportunity is missed the result can be devastating. Lifestyle is more than a behavior pattern, it is everything surrounding and involving a person that influences, contributes to and causes behavior patterns. Health is more than absence of illness, disease and injury; it is the mental and physical well-being of people, society and communities possessing the capacity and the will to live. These are things dependent upon beliefs and values.
