Perspective
Today was one of those perfect spring days. After work, I went to a local haunt (a teahouse) and got me a light dinner, a pot of aged tea, and an Old Rasputin. There, I wrote a lot of notes about a story I'm working on (patience, grasshoppers - I'll link it when it's done), which counts as my daily foray into fiction.
And I worried about the swine flu... not in the slightest.
You have a much higher chance of getting hit by a truck on the road than you do of dying from the flu (with notable exceptions). It's right to take precautions but... Jeez, people, get some perspective here. The everyday dangers we face are enough to deal with, without compounding it with media-induced panics.
Not a lot of point to living if you're going to live in fear. |
