Mom — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 09:16:38 +0000

Health is an all-encompassing word which comprises not only of your physical well-being, but your mental state as well. To be truly healthy, you should not only concentrate on toning your muscles, but also try to think about things which make you feel good. One of the things which make us happy is seeing our loved ones happy.

Whenever special occasions come up, we rack our brains out, trying to come up with gift ideas for members of our family. We search high and low for decadent birthday gifts for hubby or hi-tech toys for junior.

More than giving our loved ones the perfect presents, what matters is the quality of time we spend with them on special occasions. On your husband’s birthday for instance, what really matters is the effort you put into preparing for his surprise party. Your son will appreciate you giving up work to take him to the mall on his birthday.

In the final analysis, it’s the little things that matter. To be mentally healthy, set aside some time to celebrate special life events with your family. Everyone will end up being healthy and happy.

I am not sure if it’s because of the wisdom that comes with their age, but there is just something about old people that makes it quite interesting to chat with them. Engaging them in conversation is always amusing and has become for me, a stress-reliever.

Last weekend, I took my Dad out for some coffee. It was a date we haven’t had in a long time. Over a frapuccino and some waffles, he told me about whatever dreams he still had for the future. He said he wanted to get some Davidoff cigars online, as he has been spending a huge amount of his time surfing the net, trying his hand at online shopping. I was pleasantly entertained. I once more got my dose of “soul vitamins”.

Long after I drove him home, bits and pieces of our conversation still lingered. Again, I was reminded of his love which endures…through wrinkles and receding hairlines. You should get your own soul vitamins too. Find someone, whether old or young, whom you can share your deepest thoughts with. It’s truly invigorating.
