So simple, spend time taking care and enjoying the presence of friends and family. This will keep you healthy and smiling.
Just stop spending most of your time trying to get more wealth, success, nice cars and big houses.
Health and happiness are not about more things, they are about the people of our lives.
They should be our priority.
