All of this stuff AND a friend of ours was diagnosed with a chronic illness recently. Another friend was in a car accident. And of course we are waiting and waiting for a ruling from the court and not getting one anytime soon. It seems like most people we know are knee-deep in worry right now. This is exactly why I think it is the most obnoxious thing in the world when strangers say stuff to random people like, "Smile!" I've had that happen to me so many times, and all it does is make me want to punch the dude in the face and tell him he's lucky he didn't get worse. We're all doing the best we can, dammit! Thanks for your post. It does make sense, and I appreciate it. Oh, it’s so true. All of this stuff AND a friend of ours was diagnosed with a chronic illness recently.
