Write a paragraph of about 150 word, on the following topic.
The importance of Good Health
उत्तर
Good health is important because a man of health can enjoy great happiness during his lifetime. Without health, we can not do anything in this world. Health is wealth is a common proverb which reveals a very simple meaning by comparing the value of health with wealth. Everyone knows that nothing is important in life than good health. No one can be happy and peaceful without good health.
There is no success in people’s life if they suffer from bad health. In reality, health is more valuable for a person than money because money can not buy good health and happiness intellectually and financially. Maintaining health is not so simple. Good or bad health depends upon several factors including healthy food, environment, lifestyle, sleeping habits, social status, psychological condition, financial condition, and many more things.
