Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

I wasa crazy busy today helping my daughter out with her two boys, then rushing home to take care of my son's one year old.  Luckily, both experiences went smoothly, and I take such delight in the children.  It also keeps my mind off worrying about my older daughter, who is now trying to switch medications, which is risky and painful.  My prayers may be helpful, but imagining scenarios is not.  Don't know is also the way I handle the coronavirus news, because there is no consensus and the theories are confusing.  We don't have enough information, which is why we should be cautious.  But the will power to be cautious is eroding, and governors and officials won't be able to persuade people as well as they did in the beginning.  I pray for sanity and reason, but a lot of impulse and fear is driving people.  I understand, but we only thought we had any control over our lives.  We really never did.
