This reminds me of Randy Pausch's quote in Last Lecture - we can't change the cards we are dealt with, only how we play with them. As you said, when bad things happen, we have to learn to act swiftly and deal with them, rather than sit around and let it get out of control.

Obsessing over fear has a way of preventing the very actions that can minimize the damage. Thanks for pointing that out. Hey Vin, good to see you.

Interesting! I suppose it's easy to not realize this when you only think in terms of how rarely lightening occurs in your area. It's inevitable that we'll all encounter some kind of serious problem. The best we can do is be prepared to minimize the damage, accept the reality of the situation, and not obsess over fear. Great advice! .-= Vin - NaturalBias´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NaturalBias/~3/ilyUpGFrrVE/" rel="nofollow">5 Ways Competition Can Improve Your Life</a> =-.
