What would you have without your health? Think about that a minute.

Would you be able to pursue a career and a paycheck, the hobbies and sports that juice your systems, the causes that you are passionate

about? What would poor health do to your friendships and your closest relationships? What burdens would be placed on your family if your health ‘bellied up’? Could you achieve your dreams?

Those of us who are healthy take this amazing gift for granted. But how would life change if you contracted cancer or diabetes right now or even if, when you reached your parent’s age, you suffered a stroke or heart attack? Think about how life would change if you were chronically sick, immobilized, in constant pain, or enslaved to medications costing thousands of dollars. Those possibilities would put a serious crimp in the quality of your life, the way you lived, and what you could achieve with your life. ((Note link diabetes to sidebar))

Which means that when it comes to your future dreams and happiness, little is more important than maintaining your health.
