Class-6 English Essay Health is Wealth

EVENTS CONVENT HIGH SCHOOL

09/03/2021             CLASS-6                   SLOT-2 

SHORT ESSAY ON

HEALTH IS WEALTH

 

   “Health is Wealth” means that nothing in life has more value than health. There can be no success without health and thereby no money. If one is not healthy, he/she can’t enjoy the wealth. Good health has more value than money. Money can’t buy you happiness but if you are healthy, you will be happy. To stay healthy we should eat only healthy food and walk every day.

    We should stay both physically and mentally healthy. To enjoy our wealth we must stay healthy. A person without good health, even if he has money; isn’t happy. There can’t be happiness without health. A person with good health, enjoys his wealth, on the other hand, a person with bad health can’t enjoy.

    A healthy person always sees the world as beautiful. An unhealthy person can’t be happy at all. A person in good health can work and make his dreams come true. He doesn’t know what complaining is. He doesn’t complain about life and enjoys it. He is also in a condition to help others. A person with good health and no money is happier than a person with poor health and lots of money. Good health is the key to happiness in life.--
