It is better to be poor, but strong and healthy, than to be rich but in poor health. A poor healthy body and a cheerful attitude are more valuable than gold and jewels.
Nothing can make you richer or give you greater happiness than those two things. It would be better to be dead, asleep forever, than to live in the misery of chronic illness.
The finest food means nothing if you too ill to eat it. It might be as well offered to an idol. But there is no point offering food to an idol, it can't eat it or smell it. It is just the same with someone whom the gods has afflicted. He looks at his food and sighs, like a castrated man hugging a young woman.
Health is truly wealth. Thanks for reading... ✌
