Plead for Health

            It is said that happiness is not a destination, but a real way of living. Although it is absolutely normal for each of us to aim at bliss, not every single one of us really fights in this respect. We are not fully aware of the importance of our health condition, we seem to take no notice of the fact that health is more than the “lack” of illness.
          This is precisely the aim of our project: to make others see a healthy diet as an everlasting state of happiness. The entire project began from our desire to raise an alarm concerning the significance of “the quality of life”. Thus, what we want to say out loud is that health is more than the absence of diseases, of physical abnormalities. It has a wider signification, on many levels: physical, psychical and social.
          It is that state of welfare, that harmony of our functions. It is a complex notion that proves us that the one who possesses health possesses hope, and the one that has hope has it all. Everything lies in the hands of our reason, in the decisions we make, in the responsibility that we have upon ourselves. We are simply “convicted to freedom”, meaning that we build our own future depending on the choices we make. This way, life is just an endless row of critical-situations in which we decide our own luck, consciously or, more often than not, unconsciously, at a guess, without paying enough attention. We like saying that “we have sufficient time for everything”, postponing the moment when we have to make a radical and ultimate change in our way of living.
          This campaign is not only required, but it is a categorical imperative: we must plead for health. We have to do this in a diplomatic manner. We have to be fully aware of the fact that the advantages are exquisite for both sides: for us – who initiated the project – but also for others who were involved and accepted the fact that even we, apparently insignificant and inexperienced people, can have the necessary will – if not abilities – to help them learn how to do things right.
          Therefore, we are confident about the impact that this project might have, if we take advantage of the fact that pleading for health is a huge door to worldwide awareness. We have the needed will, resources and support to take this problem to an international level, to help people not only improve their current state of health but maybe even to prolong their life spawn, to have a good future. It is quite obvious that the benefits of having a healthy lifestyle reflect not only on the near future, but on the entire life of the individuals and therefore, of the society. The way to reach such a state of welfare is only by working together, as a united community that helps make our future brighter, and how better to do this than by pleading for health?
