Society should teach us this.

Schools should instill this concept. If it were a pill, everyone would be on it.

I hope you're being sarcastic.

No. In essence this tells people to care for themselves above all. I endorse that. It should be built in to the culture.

Without the last sentence, I’d agree. The last sentence makes it completely demotivating.

It shouldn’t. A pill is generally a remedy for a physical or mental issue. It’s kind of a resolution for the issue. My last sentence equates to every one should do it. I work in Heath care and often tell people who refuse to exercise when they need to that: if exercise was a pill- everyone would be on it. ( it has the same quantitation.)

I was referring to the last sentence of the tweet.

Oh. Ok. Lol. But I’m an older person, who worked in medicine. I always kept “Giving Hope” on my tool belt. I interpret the last sentence as hope. Maybe it’s a strong suggestion but it may be what the person needs.
