Seriously. Twisted. World.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself...
Life is hectic these days. The economy sucks, unemployment is bad, government is corrupt, volcanoes are erupting, earth is quaking, tsunamis are rising, tornados are forming, oil is leaking, bridges are collapsing, and I have a blister on my foot. There are many things to fear in the world and not enough good news. With all of these wrong and terrible things happening today, what is there to look forward to tomorrow?

As Franklin D. Roosevelt said:

This is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly. Nor need we shrink from honestly facing conditions in our country today. This great Nation will endure as it has endured, will revive and will prosper. So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.

Today during my lunch break, I found myself extremely nervous while walking past vans, trucks and other large vehicles. Thanks Taliban and Al Qaeda. I had a short circuit and needed to rewire my thinking. I cannot let fear infiltrate my mind and my way of life. As an American, I wanted to point blame. It’s the terrorists fault! The government! The media! No, it’s me…


Surfing the web, watching the news, reading the newspaper, listening to the radio – these vehicles of communication spread nothing but fear. Rid your life of fear. Clear your mind of the paralyzing terror. Read the bible...find God. Amen, over and out!
