In search of Preventive Science to appreciate what we have, before losing it!!!
Some of the greatest works in prose and poetry in almost all languages is based on those experiences involving personal loss. Majority of these great works in literature reflect the void after the loss, with an emphasis on their regret in not recognizing the importance of what they had. The personal loss could be of any kind; for example, those of near and dear ones, good health, beautiful habitat, pleasant work conditions, positions, wealth and so on. It is difficult to say if a personal loss imparts an important understanding to an Individual which would not have been otherwise possible. The million dollar question is, what can be done to awaken people to value what they have, and do all that is possible to retain them? We probably have to work at a coordinated multidisciplinary level, to explore if we can develop some preventive strategies to stop this from occurring. Increasing such awareness among the masses can have a positive impact on their physical and mental health.
