The stress of everyday life seems to be taking a toll on my loved ones, especially those married ones.  My sister called in tears this morning, her husband packed and moved out.  My son is leaving his wife this week.  Wow.  Money seems to be a big factor in producing this stress.  I have no job, I have no income at all. 

   I suffer from  OseoArthritis in both knees, in the advanced stages.  I live with my sister now.  I have some stress, yes.  Who doesn't.  But tearing away from your family isn't the answer.  It's better to pull together, what better way to prove adversity wrong, than to weather out the storm?
 
  What better way to show how strong love is, what faith can accomplish?  How do you know if you're made of tough stuff if you don't get tested, sent thru the fire, so to speak?  Well, I have my own stresses, for sure, but I also have faith and hope, I believ that things will get better, and so I work to make it so.  I may not have a dollar to LEND, but I have alot of warm hugs, warm smiles and happy feelings and a good ear to listen,  to GIVE AWAY.  I never seem to run out of love, so in that respect, I am rich, indeed!
