When are you healthy? Being healthy has long ceased to mean "not being sick. It has become a value, an ideal to which you should aspire. But the tricky thing with an ideal is that you can never quite achieve it. You can always be healthier, fitter, more athletic, more conscious. Is there such a thing as healthy enough?
