Even if you don’t have teeth, which could signs of a health defect, you can still be well and happy. Wellness doesn’t always root from health. Wellness can also root from the happiness and satisfaction of the mind. In the statement, it talks about adapting to change, and I think the expression of this woman shows a lot about how she can cope with her health problems and still remain optimistic in the light of life.
This is a good response to the exhibit statement regarding adaptation, wellness and optimism.
