iv. Sick
Sickness can be a gift of love. Especially certain is the blessing God has given you in caring for your family! We are lucky.
The good part of all this is although I still don't feel like things are under control, at least now I don't always feel like I'm in the "hell-in-a-handbag" mode. I am more confident and less afraid--even when the world is full of unknowns and scary situations.
Positive attitudes are not always easiest. This you well know. So the really important thing to remember is always do your best. It may not change our
own circumstances substantially but it will improve the situations for those who follow.
In a lot of ways that is like enjoying a dessert treat surreptitiously. Infinite pleasure; zero calories.
