Health Is Wealth
According to the Concise Oxford English Dictionary, 11th edition, health means no illness or injury; the ability to cope with everyday activities; and a good mental and physical condition. The World Health Organisation (WHO) defines health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and does not only consist of the absence of diseases and infirmities. On the other hand, wealth is defined as abundance of valuable possession.
Having said that, what I mean when I say health is wealth is our state of complete physical, mental and social well-being is our most abundant and valuable possession.
Health is wealth simply because a healthy life is life in all its abundance, joy and fullness. Without health, life would be full of anxiety and fear towards diseases and injuries. With health on our side, life automatically seems to be full of happiness and laughter, and this will actually promote optimism in one’s mind-set. According to research, when one often thinks about diseases and injuries all the time, those calamities will keep coming back to haunt the person. The best way is to concentrate on being healthy and avoid unhealthy activities.
With health and optimism, we tend to see life in the best way possible. Furthermore if we strive for health, there will be others who you will follow, who will be inspired by you to have that mutual objective which is a healthy life. Through this way, you can have many more acquaintances and friends, with more friends, obviously our life would be happier and healthier. Anything that promotes health will almost always start and end with joy.
Imagine a car with a tank full of fuel, the indicator will show that it is full, same goes to our stomach, when we have eaten, we will feel full too. However, the thing that differs from a car and our stomachs is that the fuel in the car, when not used, can be stored for future use. For our stomach, when we store ‘fuel’ in it and do not use it, it will eventually turn to fats
