I have come across this particular saying three times in separate sites in the last couple of weeks and so I thought that I should share it with everyone here. It’s very profound and yet most people don’t pay much attention to its meaning.
Nursery Rhyme. What the River Knows. 1990
The best six doctors anywhere
and no one can deny it
are sunshine, water, rest, and air
exercise and diet.
These six will gladly you attend
if only you are willing.
Your mind they’ll ease, your will they’ll mend
and charge you not a shilling.

I love that, Laurence! I’ve never heard that rhyme. Thanks for sharing – and reminding us!
