It is everywhere you go. Stress seems to follow us through the day and it is often hard to shake it. From the stress that comes to us at work to the stresses of our home lives, escape seems impossible. People seem to incessantly worry about everything. There are those that will find something to worry about if there isn't something already there. Stress is sometimes a killer. It puts an undue strain on our hearts.
