                                    We all sacrifice parts of ourselves and our lives for the greater good of our value systems.

                                    Some  people say the meaning of life is to seek happiness. Others think it is  a fleeting and self-indulgent feeling and other human traits such as  usefulness, compassion and responsibility should be the basis of  creating meaning and purpose in…                                
                                
                              
                        
                         
                    
                        
                        
                                                        
                            
                            
                                 
                                                               
                                
                                    It’s official. Non-communicable  diseases (“lifestyle” diseases) are now the leading cause of death  around the world, with developing countries hit hardest, according to a  new report from the World Health Organisation (WHO).

As they make breakfast, gather homework, retrieve  missing socks, apply make-up, hang the washing out, usher the…
