Dear Allison:

You are welcome. There is a line from a poem I like very much: “Every one of us has to find a way to live with fear.” No matter what you do, there is going to be fear. Because there is no such thing as guarantee in life (except for the guarantee of death- which is teh one guarnatee that is scary!) – there will always be fear. Got to find a way to live BETTER with this unavoidable, inescapable reality. When your choices reflect your fears- there still will be fear. When your choices reflect your hopes- there will be fear. So fear in any case, makes sense to go for hopes. Best wishes to you. Post any time!
