To what goal are you straining? — Seneca.

Most people live in fear of some terrible event changing their lives, the death of a loved one or a serious illness. For the chronically ill, this terrible event has already happened, and we have been let in on an amazing secret: You survive.

You learn to balance your fears with the simple truth that you must go on living. — Jamie Weisman
