Health...health what REALLY is health?????? I have thus gone to our trusted website, Wikipedia and I found the defination of health, the REAL meaning of health. Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. So, in short, overall health is achieved through a combination of physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being. (You can see for yourself at:

Do you know(source-

-that an estimated of 33.2 million people on the earth have HIV?

-that breast cancer account for 16% of the woman population?

-that tobacco kills a third or half of those that uses it and currently 22% of the whole population are smoking tobbacco?

-that out of 100 000 births, 400 mothers die?

???????????????????????????????????????

Can you ever believe this statistics????????

SOOOOOO many die due to health problems!!!!!!

Health REALLY gives us a headache! Don't you agree?

Recently there was a jogging boom that happened in Tokyo. I really hope that it can help in reducing the number of health problems. However, will there be a real stop to all these health problems? What do you think?

Anyway, recently I sustained a foot injury during my basketball training. I keep feeling the incessant pain. When I walk there is an overwhelming pain. Now I can't run properly much less walk properly! Anyone, can you imagine all the pain I am going through. If I had not gone for yesterday's training, and agravate my injury I would not have felt this much pain! This proves a point that health really gives us an headache. The minute I did not take care of my health, it proved costly for the suffering I have to go through! I have now vowed to myself that I would look after myself.

Health. Isn't it a really big problem.......
