Two Perspectives

Next Week I've got a big week next week and a stuffy nose and deep cough tonight. I need to be able to function in seven days, and my eyes hurt, can't focus, feel so very tired. My husband is ill, his mother, too, and I need to be here to care for them, to see them through. But they can function even if I desert them. They can. I know. I'll be worthless there, needed here. Should I make arrangements not to go? I feel so powerless, so inept, so unable...

Next Week Things look kind of bleak right now but it's temporary. I'm medicating my cold, taking care of myself, getting rest. I've prepared for the conference, have worked things out for the house. Maybe it's not the easiest week for me to go but it will all work out. I don't have to borrow worry from next week. I cannot control that, can control very little, but though I'm powerless I have a Power who wants what's best both there and here.
