What about physically healthy - you sound like you're about to have a heart-attack at any second ! Mentally healthy is also NB though.

It would also seem, he taught you how to speak clearly, and explain things in a way,that your not over-boasting. Next time chew gum, hop on one foot, bouncing a basketball, and reading one of his books while talking. Well done Sir Pope!

@Flint1545 If you feel okay then you're healthy.

If you don't feel okay then you're not healthy.

@Flint1545 - I disagree. I know a number of people who have unquestioning fundamental beliefs, and some of them are dullards to say the least. Then I know others who don't have a firm belief in anything, and they are some of the most creative and fascinating people I know.

Also the world is a much more intriguing & brilliant place, when you are flexible in you beliefs, therefore experiencing multiple realities rather than just the one reality tunnel.

And what is mentally healthy anyway?

[Flint1545]

This is a slightly depressing and bitter view of ... well, everything. I say you absolutely need 10s in life (e.g. passion for your work). Otherwise we wouldn't have any Picassos or Dian Fosseys. The world without people like them is boring.

Meh I give this a 5 ;)

[MrErisian]

This is brilliant.

ALL PERCEPTION IS GAMBLE!

There's nothing quite like listening to someone help you marginalizing your own beliefs...
