The first is calculated based on our date of birth; the second is determined by the health conditions and the third is how old you feel you are. While we don't have control over the first, we can take care of our health with good diet, exercise and a cheerful attitude. A positive attitude and optimistic thinking can reverse the third age.

Just be who you are

In our attempts to be liked and loved by others , we tried to explore means and ways that made us a different person instead of being truly who we are.
