naut

it surprises me the number of people that live in fear. or should i say exist in fear because if you are fearful you are not living your life to the fullest.  the saying fear develops from ignorance, but maybe it is just something that we are being fed so often that we become fearful.

i am not saying we should not be aware and careful, but use good common sense.

I think the greater risk of ebola

Is the public panic.  I have a client who works at the sister hospital of Dallas Pres.  While they are concerned, precautions are being taken and they are going about their days pretty close to normal.

Life happens, illness happens but we can't stop living because of it.

And when that type of panic spreads, we're all in trouble . . .

We all have it in ourselves to fear irrationally, but it seems to me

our dear teacher is getting a 21-day vacation and laughing up her sleeve. Sometimes the policies and procedures at a school just stun the mind.

It's really getting crazy out there, isn't it.  Panic is a horrible thing.

And that is about as crazy as the whole thing has become. There is NOT an epidemic in America. Well I wrote my post and I put it onto the CNN FB page ...I blame the hysterics in the media for all the nonsense going on.
