Are there more important things than work?

The most important aspect of life I think is health, both physically and mentally. You need to be sure that you're in parameters regarding your health, like everything is going well. And especially mentally, since work can sometimes be tiring and exhausting. And you can sometimes work too much, and you reach a mental exhaustion. Besides health, I think family is the second most important thing. Because you can find a new job any day. If you are to leave your current job, you can always find another job, that's not a problem. But family is unique, you can't replace family.

Work is important, and I understand that and I'm fully committed to work. But at the same time, we need to acknowledge the fact that work isn't the most important thing in life.
