If you were strolling along the beach and happened to kick an old bottle from which out popped an honest-to-goodness genie who told you that you had but a few short moments to ask for any two wishes to be granted in your life-what would they be? Wouldn't it be health and wealth? Aren't those the two "biggies" that most people desire in their life? To have lots and lots of money and to be healthy enough to enjoy it? Truth be told, what good would a lot of money be if you were too sick to enjoy it? The fact is that health, as the old saying goes, is your greatest wealth. Surely you've heard people say things like, "When you have your health, you have everything." We all wish to live a life free of pain, ill-health, and disease, that just goes without saying. But how many of us actually have the good fortune of doing so? When one looks at the actual statistics of who is living life in uninterrupted, pain-free good health and who is not, the numbers show that those who have some sort of regularly occurring health complaint far outweigh those who do not, and by a huge margin.
