    Great article, Kathleen. Very much along the same lines as my last 3 blog posts. Right now it seems very unpopular to be anything but frightened. How sad. It doesn't have to be.
    God bless,
    Jerry

    So true Jerry. However, I would prefer to be unpopular and contribute to the solution rather than popular and continue growing the problem.

    Thank you for your insights.

    Hi,Kathleen,

    I can certainly endorse your belief that our Higher Power, whether beyond or within us,is what gives our life perspective and meaning. Going beyond current economic fears and health problems and other sources of pain, and learning to look outside the box of panic, whether economic or personal,real or manufactured, can sure save us a lot of wear-and-tear.
    Those who don't learn this will have ample reason to be despondent while remaining unresponsive to the larger, vibrant world.
    Giving in service to others,whether or not you earn a living from that (and why not earn as you teach and learn?),is where it's at. That is the essence of my 17 month drive, from skratch to finish, to rwrite my new book "Conquer Prostate Cancer: How Medicine, Faith, Love and Sex Can Renew Your Life."
    For that matter any author, teleseminarian (is there such a word?) and coach/mentor knows the joy of giving is far greater than the joys of receiving. To put it tritely but truly: To give, is to really live.
    -Rabbi Ed Weinsberg

    Rabbi Ed, I really like your closing comments. To give, is to really live.

    Well said.

    Kathleen Gage
