    Just a thought

    I keep our military and their families in my daily prayers. In thinking about them, I realized that our military folks--especially those overseas now have another concern---the well being of their own families back home---as if they didn't have enough to contend with. Please join me in keeping all of them and their families in your prayers.

    Worrying about your family is more stressful than worrying about yourself----in reality you don't much worry about yourself---it just is what it is

    I guess it's from the nature of my job, But I don't worry about things that are out of my direct control. I guess I am fatalistic in that sense. Stuff will happen or not regardless if I do or don't worry about it. So I don't. I just do what I need to do and deal with it. None of us are getting out of here alive in the end anyways.

    This support for the military is well-deserved. I've been in the audience at USO shows. It brought tears to my eyes to see performers from America doing their thing onstage. That was 44 years ago when I was a lonely hospital patient - who was severely missing his family.

    Your support matters. And, it is recognized. Seriously, well done.
