“For some people, life is like arithmetic where you add one to one and you get two. But for me, the Gestalt theory is a more appropriate theory. Think about this: If one is able to take care of his body by shunning away from bad habits, he doesn’t simply end up being physically sound; it’s not enough for him to say, I have a healthy body parts – healthy legs, healthy brain, healthy heart and do on; his totality may even greater because if he is physically healthy, there’s a lot more he can don in life. He can fulfill his dreams and each accomplishment will add on to his initial deposit of happiness. This is where I’m coming from. Just the same, It doesn’t mean that a person who has lost his legs or arms due to accident or operation has become a lesser human being because it’s not just his physical body that makes him a human being. If he learns to move on despite his physical disabilities, then that means he is psychologically healthy and therefore, he can be happy.” Convinced?
