i agree with you, they used to tell me "don't think at the problem, go out, have a walk", but it's not like your body will self fix or your pains and difficulties fades away if you walk out, and there was no way to make them understand

I strongly believe that good times produce weak and carefree people, whereas bad times produce stronger and more determined people

that's true too, our grandparents were stronger, had more sacrifice spirit, helped each other
