Days of war and terror are upon the earth. Conflict and unrest are a daily component for some people and countries. How can they/we survive such a situation? Stress and survival go hand in hand and must be handled as consistently as possible. Mentally, the will must be strong, and when it falters, it must be re-united with the inner self for strength to continue. Man has always had to learn to survive. Sometimes not looking too far behind or too far forward is the best path to take. Each day becomes a struggle, yet at some point, the body and the mind must have a rest period, no matter how short. It then can draw on the strength within. This strength can then be shared with others who are more in need.
