Peale identified with humanity. So do I. Your neighbors have a select listing of their problems. So do your relatives. Problems are a way of living. Confident living separates "the men from the boys!"It is how you react to problems that will determine the outcome.
Reverend N.V. Peale taught me how to react to my problems. You have a choice to act positively, play ostrich and bury your problems in sand (denial) or to act in a negative manner playing the blame game!
Is your laundry basket full of your problems? Empty it soon!
Some have big problems others have tiny problems. Some worry about the outcome and develop duodenal ulcers. "Worry is rust on the blade of life!" Say you are going in for surgery and your doctor comes in with a rusty scalpel. NO THANKS! LOL.
It seems as we age gracefully some problems haunt us! Our amazing brain is tuned into Channel One. Why not make a list of your problems according to the most pressing issues at hand... then complete the list according to priority?
Humans have all kinds of problems. It is Mother Nature personified! So deal with them. I do. Then your skies will clear.
Finally, the famed Everly Brothers sang a worrisome song "Problems all day long...." I like it. By grabbing the bull by the horns and seeking solutions the song changes to "Oh, Happy Me!"
