I’ve been going around in circles for months – if not years. Learning this and that – but today it struck me what is the core of my purpose – Prevention is better Than Cure.
Sounds obvious? It is – but for whatever reason the great majority of people pay lip service to this idea. Thinking that maybe it doesn’t apply to them – and if anything goes wrong they’ll think about it then.
How many words were wasted telling people how to brush their teeth to prevent gum disease and dental decay? – a lot. How many people followed the advice? – not a lot. How many times did I have to listen to pleas to save the last couple of wobbly, calculus-covered teeth which the owner had suddenly decided were worth saving? – -more times than is funny.
The same applies to health. Our greatest asset. This body that we travel with for the duration of our journey in this lifetime. Why be so negligent as to allow it to slip into disrepair before you pay attention to its needs?
Prevention is better than cure. It’s time to shout it out.
