Everybody's got some kind of burden.

Jack’s Winning Words 3/6/14
“Everyone has his burden; what counts is how you carry it.”  (Hugh McLeod)  Heavy backpacks carried by children can lead to future back pain, according to a chiropractor that I know.  Heavy purses and billfolds carried in the back pocket can also cause spinal problems.  But the quote is really about carrying mental burdens.  My friend says that mental stress can lead to physical discomfort.  A song advises, “Take your burden to the Lord, and leave it there.”  What has worked for you?    ;-)  Jack
