Community

We were all created by God to live in community.  We need a family to love and be loved by.  We needs friends to hang with and challenge us.  We need teams that we can be a part of and communities we can be involved in. We were not intended to live in isolation and it is not healthy to be alone.  Often we have problems that we are struggling to solve simply because we don't have a group of friends that we can talk to about them.  So if we are going to regain our health then we need to get some friends.  This is a great way to lower the stress level in your life and stress is having a tremendous impact on the health of our nation.  We spend millions of dollars every year buying drugs so that we can cope, and paying way too much for someone to listen to us talk about our problems.

Here is a solution. Why don't we get on the phone and begin to repair our families.  Let's learn to forgive, and say I'm sorry.  When you have family and friends you have a good reason to get healthy.  Nothing has motivated me to get healthy this year more than the love of family and friends.  We all need a reason to live that's bigger than we are.
