Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood. According to https://www.mentalhealth.gov/basics/what-is-mental-health

This does not mean burying our heads in the sand… It is taking seriously the biblical principle of… Three things should always abide…even when all is lost.
“, Faith, Hope, and Love” And now these three remain faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13

We must always keep the 3 in our hearts and keep them alive in a world that is becoming seemingly evil and unpredictable. Good shall always Prevail.
