We all have some common aspects: one soul, one mind and one body. The way we take care of our bodies will tell on us when we start to get a little on the uphill side of life. Some people will look and feel great and be ready to take on the world, while some will be broken down with disease and too overweight to really do anything about it.

How we treat our bodies when we are young will have a huge impact on how or bodies will treat us when we get older. While still in your youthful days it would be wise to eat healthy and to get some exercise when you can to keep your muscles in tone. From experience I can tell you that you really need to keep your blood pressure under control for if you don't you risk destroying your kidneys.And let me tell you, dialysis is not a joke. You would also be doing yourself a grave injustice by letting stress get a hand hold on you. You need to get the upper hand on stress and not let things bother you. Worrying about something will not in the least bit help your situation at all. What it will do for you is to put you into the category of having a heart attack! Again, from experience, you don't want one of them either. Getting cracked open to have your heart worked on is no picnic in the park.

Some of the best advice that I know to give you is this, slow your life down, you don't have to live 90 to nothing.It will get you no where fast! Living a fast pace life you will eventually hit a speed bump that will roll you over and over until you don't know where you are. The bad thing is that you may or may not be able to recoup from your little roll.

Believe it or not your health is a fragile thing and it doesn't take a whole lot to break it. While you still have it in one piece take pride in yourself and think for a moment, is your job more important than you health/life? Slow down and smell the roses every once in awhile, you will get to where you will enjoy having a quite time with nature around you and the big blue sky above you. When you get on up in years you can look back and remember these days and how it brought such peace to you. It still can. This never gets too old.

Just remember to take care of your body and your body will wind up taking care of you. Believe me you will appreciate having a healthy body when you get older. Don't take it for granted!
