      In the scheme of things ...

      Work is not stressful - it is one giant unmedicated nerve ending
      and I could go on and on and on ...

      yet last Friday my brother-in-law was in a very severe auto accident and walked (crawled) away with his life and body intact.
      Saturday I received an e-mail from a former co-worker who is severly stricken with cancer and appears to be losing the battle.

      In the scheme of things - the stress at work is just that, stress at work. What matters in this life is family, and friends and being there for each other in the tough times and in the good times and all the times in between.
      It really is all about relationships and humankind and giving and loving and sharing and .... Good Lord I am rambling and I must be tired ... and you guys should go to bed and stop roaming blogs.

      To be outspoken when truth is under attack, when charity is being bruised, or when important issues of life are at stake is a good and courageous thing. To be outspoken when nothing is at stake except the feelings of someone else is a small and contemptible thing. ~ Lawrence G. Lovasik (The Hidden Power of Kindness)
