Just Tempting Fate

Some local Nashville newscasters and other folks on national broadcasts have expressed fear about going to a movie theater in the wake of the horror in Colorado. We need some degree of sanity and balance in our lives. People must not be afraid to attend the cinema. If you dwell on risk, you will be forever petrified in everyday life. You could be hit by an eighteen-wheeler when you drive to see your grandfather one county over. You could crash on an airline flight on your graduation trip to Tokyo. You could be hit by an automobile when you go to the corner store to buy your gallon of milk or your ground chuck which might have Mad Cow in it. You can not live a fulfilled life worrying about what might happen. There is a Higher Power and we must trust that we are in His Hands.
