    Some things aren't that complicated.

    Many people are flushed, rushed, and razzle-dazzled.

    Stressed out.

    Transferring that stress to others; or as a shrink said to our ego-satiating doctoral study group in the late 70s, "Troubled people tend to be constipated.  That's why they dump on you."

    Stressed out.

    Internalizing in self-destructive ways; or as Mark Hopkins wrote recently, "Last year, across the nation, 38,364 people committed suicide...Research tells us that one in seven of our youth report having thoughts of suicide...The question perplexing the experts is 'Why?'...What is creating the stress that makes suicide a better alternative for the afflicted than living?"

    Stressed out.

    I heard a talking radio head say 75% of Americans take prescribed or non-prescribed/et/illegal meds because they are sooooooo stressed out.

    The diagnosis and prescription aren't that complicated.

    Troubled people are not that intimate with Jesus.

    People get better when they get closer to Jesus.

    Jesus promised, "Come to Me, everyone who is weary and burdened, and I will take care of you."
