Everybody has issues. Life wouldn't be called what it is without them. It all boils down to how we handle them as they come. In the case of yours truly, I get my own share of it from time to time. More often than not thankfully, I have been able to take jibes and even laugh at it at my own expense. There are times, however, that the stuff I face is just so daunting that I can't snap out of it. In this case, I try to look at people who are worse off than I am and then laugh at their predicaments (though not necessarily in their faces -- unless I'm really in a really chronic situation). Suddenly, my own world of issues is a much easier burden to handle.
