It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n

(Mahatma Gandhi)<\/p>\n

A friend was once asked to ‘babysit’ a show dog.<\/p>\n

The dog could only drink the purest of water, needed to eat on schedule, and required a vigourous exercise routine daily.<\/p>\n

Speaking of the experience afterwards, the dazed dog-sitter told me the strangest part was when the owner returned. The two met at a McDonald’s to debrief.<\/p>\n

“It was surreal,” he confided, “knowing how he fed his dog, but watching him chug a soft drink and eat a Big Mac.”<\/p>\n

Real wealth<\/strong> is available to everyone, but not everyone cares<\/h2>\n

We work every day to keep the bills paid and money in the bank.<\/p>\n

We rarely miss a meal and most of us take on way more calories than we need.<\/p>\n

We dread going to the gym and working up a sweat.<\/p>\n

We WANT to be healthy, but we chug the Coke and eat the breadsticks anyway. Are we mad?<\/p>\n

What is the ‘real wealth of life’?<\/p>\n

Let’s talk about it.<\/p>\n
