Few days back, met two brothers. There was a huge difference in their life styles. Though they were living in same family, got same values but they were very different. One was eating junk food all the time and one was focusing on healthy life style. Healthy one, would wake up early, go for a walk, eat healthy food and drink healthy juices. He was also blessed with lots of success though he had his own ups and downs. The one who was eating junk food and had little spoiled life style, said that “his brother is a health freak” and he was not. I wondered why we have negative labels for people who are doing good. anyway he continued and he hated his brother. Why so? Because his brother had a great body, successful life and everyone loved him.
So was this difference in life style there from the beginning or was it they acquired afterwards. They shared that their mother always talked about healthy food and habits but they got into different companies and there comes a time when we have to choose our own lives. His brother chose health and he chose fun!
Now, my big question was, why hatred? Why jealousy? Because he got everything and you did not! But why do you think he got everything? Is it sheer destiny or something else? Because he gave it all. He focused on having a better life and for that we definitely need a better body. Can you be happy when you have a head ache or stomach ache? What if your body is feeling full of energy and then you feel like more and more things. But for that you need to take care of your body so that it can take care of you. You call him freak, but he has worked hard for everything.
Try living a healthy life and happiness will come along. Because a stressed out body can never give you happiness. Now, let’s take an example, if you have a servant and you always make him work and never bother to create an environment of fun and happiness for him, you do not worry about his feelings, you just make him work. How long would he stay or work and would he be happy working for you? NO! Then why do you think your body can happily keep working for you without nourishing it properly?
He realised the importance of health, started working on it, and started gaining confidence. He felt better, his body felt better, he gained confidence and then he started working on other areas of life. later on he shared that he was scared that if his body would keep falling apart like earlier, how would he be in old age? But he felt better now.
Please take care of health, it contributes a lot for a happy life. Without a healthy body, we can never be happy.
