    Good food, wine and company




    In 1976, Stamatis Moraitis was diagnosed with lung cancer. He was given less than a year to live by the physicians whom he consulted.

    After more than a decade, Moraitis visited his physicians to inform them he was still alive, only to discover he had outlived them all. All those physicians had left the mortal world by then.

    Moraitis credited his survival to the good food, wine, and company on the island of Icaria (in Greece). He eventually passed away at the age of one hundred and two!

    So, it is proved that good food, wine and good company (I hope all the members have understood what is meant by 'good company') can make impossible, possible!

    That is good. Good food is indeed essential for a healthy life. After seeing this thread, I learned that wine is also good for a long life. Good company always keeps your mind fresh, which will help you have a peaceful life. I agree with that. Without peace of mind, maintaining good health is very difficult.

    There are blue zones around the world where average life span is way higher than other parts of the world. It all attributes to the kind of lifestyle they have and their closeness to nature. No matter how much we try we can't match them because of the stressful, polluted, and hectic lifestyle of today's world. We all are busy chasing our dreams and in the end we all may end up ruining our body and mind. Human body isn't made to bear the unnecessary stress and hardwork. It will surely show its effect in the long run.


    Humble yourself or life will do it for you!

    Stamatis Moraitis at a very old age:
