dr. Ryu Hasan, Gembira itu bukan Obat

 

Gembira itu bukan Obat

Bahwa gembira itu sehat, iya.. tapi itu bukan obat. Obat itu (diperlukan) kalau kondisi kita patologis. 

Patologis itu apa? "mudah mati". (Ada) ancaman kematian, itu adalah patologis. 

Sakit itu (ada) ancaman kematian, pada saat (sakit) itu kita memerlukan obat. Pada saat sehat, kita lebih memerlukan nutrisi. 

Bahwa gembira itu membuat kita sehat, iya. Bahwa gembira itu sehat ketimbang murung, iya. TAPI gembira itu bukan obat. Sama dengan ASI itu sehat, buah2 an itu sehat, TAPI sampeyan TBC ya gak akan sembuh dengan buah Durian. 

Jadi gembira itu sehat, iya, tapi gembira bukan obat. Bahagia itu sehat, TAPI Bahagia bukan obat. Pada saat orang sakit Tifus negara bahagia pun, tetap memerlukan obat Tifus.

Yeah, being happy is healthy, but it’s not a medicine. Medicine is needed when our condition is pathological. What is pathological? It means being prone to death. When there’s a threat to life, that’s pathological. Illness "carries" a threat to life, and in such cases, we need medicine. When we are healthy, we need nutrition. 

Does happiness contribute to good health? Yes. 

Is being happy healthier than being gloomy? Absolutely.

BUT happiness is not a cure. Just like breast milk is healthy, and fruits are healthy, but if you have Tuberculosis, eating durian won’t cure you.

So ??  Absolutely happiness is healthy, but happiness is not medicine. Being joyful is beneficial for our health, but it is not a replacement for medical treatment. Even in the happiest country in the world, if someone gets typhoid, they will still need typhoid medication.
