Health and Happiness - a package deal

Health is a prerequisite to happiness. Without one, the other rarely exists

If I were to ask you this question, “What is your most precious possession?” what would be your reply?

Many of you, I believe, will point to your properties, the real estate you own—immovable properties as they are called.

Some of you may consider gold and silver, rubies and diamonds, the family jewels as your most precious possession.

And yet, I must tell you that there is something far more precious than all these things put together, which is yours and yours alone! I would go one step further and say that to retain this unique possession, you would gladly part with all that I mentioned earlier—your land and money and stocks and gold --and still feel that you have struck a very good bargain!

I ask you to reflect once again; what is your most precious possession? Indeed, life is the most precious of all.
