Having just been through an experience (angiogram) that I’m not anxious to repeat, I have some things in my life I’d like to examine.

For instance: My eating habits and lack of exercise have been known by me to be less than optimal. I’ve been hearing eat less, exercise more, for many years. Good sound advice that nobody tells you HOW to accomplish.

On the good side, I’ve already quit smoking and seem to have survived it’s effects relatively unscathed.

On the bad side, I’m currently dealing with a great deal of stress.

I have an incredible and understanding boss, and he helps me where he can.
I don’t know if he can do enough to de-stress my current position. I hope he can, I hope he does, because I LOVE my job. I also love the people I work with, they are some of the best in the industry, bar none. An incredibly talented and decent bunch of folks. I am proud to call even the worst of them my friends.

If I have to live under the current stresses, however, I may just have to try something else for a change. I can make a LOT more money doing the same work with the same stress, or make the same money with almost no stress, but longer hours.

I have come to a crossroads. I must decide where to turn next. It is not an easy decision but it must be weighed against my health and longevity, and the things it can afford my family. God grant me the wisdom, as you have in the past, to make the right decisions.
