FEAR  AND  ANXIETY

You think you’re nervous, you’re  scared?
What about a fly - who flies away just
before someone is about to swat it?

What about the scavenger birds along
the highway? It’s not easy to eat your
supper with 18 wheelers whizzing by.

What about the high school kid with
great chocolate chip cookies and the
lunch room is filled with 150 starving kids?

What about the child in a bomb shelled
city - with snipers and shooters in every
other half-destroyed apartment building?

What about the husband and wife, mom 
and dad, who are both out of work and 
they have 4 kids - who are hungry and...?

What about the 89 year old - in a nursing
home - sitting there near the front door, and 
every visitor seems to be there for someone else?
