The Sky Didn't Fall this Morning

Chicken Little is nearly always wrong. Oh, sometimes she sees things that might cause us to duck but the "Let's all run for our life" fear based infoglut is nearly always wrong.

But I hear you say, What about when she's right? OK. Then she's right. You'll deal with it. But fear and panic over Chicken Little's prognostications are nothing less than bondage and a stronghold that puts you in chains. Most of the time over things that will never happen.

The stock market was supposed to fall off the edge of the earth this morning. It didn't. Even if the Fed hadn't notched 3/4 of a point before the market opened, it wasn't going to collapse.

The news media had everyone (not me) convinced. I was looking for a chance to get LONG.

Quit worrying yourself to DEATH. That's what it is. DEATH.

LIVE. Even if every newscaster including FOX says things are going to heck, they're not. You'll be OK. I'll be OK.

Be Bold Be Strong for the Lord thy God is with THEE!

I said that to a friend yesterday. It's true today too. It's been true for thousands of years. It'll be true thousands of years from now.

What in the world could worry anyone that much?
