Take care… of your one and only permanent vehicle…
Yes, I am talking of our precious vehicle… ‘OUR BODY’ that we have received as a gift from The God. In this era, most of the people start their careers at an early age of 20 to 22 to earn the money & doesn’t care much about their physical health.
Eating junk food, working long hours at a stretch, attending parties till late night and remaining in stress have become part of today’s lifestyle in which physical activities like games & exercise don’t get any importance. Some people have the false notion in their mind that just as brand new vehicle doesn’t require any maintenance; our bodies also don’t require exercise, yoga & meditation at this age.
We can replace our bicycles, motor bikes or car in two, five or ten years when they get old or damaged.
But can we replace our body in the same way?
I am not telling you to live life like a monk. Definitely you have the right to enjoy outside world throughly, but at the same time one needs to listen the needs of the body also. Your body is such a precious vehicle which no one can replace or change.
