They should be strong and healthy enough to provide our bodies with the support needed without weighing it down, while still protecting the vital organs, such as the brain, the heart, and lungs, and enabling us to move in certain directions without difficulty. But once damaged, it would be challenging for us to enjoy every moment of life.
