[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 27823, member: 3419"] So sorry Marg! Beats me how these things turn into obsessions--and especially what the pastor's point was! Strange. Sounds like you're handling it well. I just read in the paper that a US soldier got a smallpox shot and spread a related virus to his family (wife and son). They are now hospitalized. This is a scary grown-up thing! Yes, there are scary things all over the place. We have to choose to not dwell on them, to consider the likelihood and probability of whatever-it-is happening, and choose to forge ahead and be cheerful. I love the Desiderata of Happiness by Max Erhmann. We read it at church on the 1st anniv. of Sept. 11. " and whatever your labors and aspirations in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams; it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful." Maybe you could find something like that in a children's book for your difficult child... [/QUOTE]
