A person likes to talk about his illnesses, meanwhile it is the most boring side of his life. - Chekhov
Your spouse constantly complains about her headache? Your colleagues discussed their symptoms of allergy during the coffee break? A stranger in a bar had too much and then confessed he had got troubles with his sex life? Why do people talk about it so much?
Well, because health is one of the most important aspects of happiness. While we do have our good health we do not think about it. We are so busy with this ongoing competition for a better place under the sun. We keep fighting for a better promotion in our company, for ability to buy a faster car and more beautiful house, for the pleasure of having a gorgeous woman.
But think for a minute whether this gorgeous woman will bring you any happiness if you do not have any strength left in the end of the day? Even the most comfortable house will not bring down the constant stress you have had over the years.
Maybe it is better to start looking for your happiness from making sure your health is in good hands? Do not set aside your visit to a doctor just because you are busy with work assignments, as a rule healthy people are more successful. Do not delay taking your medication until you are in a crisis situation; it is easier and simpler to cure disease in the very beginning. Do yourself a favor, start a new habit of taking care of your own health, so you will not have to undergo treatment of various illnesses, which means you will have more time to enjoy the pleasures and beauties of the world around you.
And you might be surprised finding out how many themes for a conversation there are!
