I have traveled all over the world since 1982 and now am finding more anxiety about things that never were a problem before. It is sort of like when I learned to drive it was exciting and a lot of fun. Then I was hit a couple of times and slowly realized how dangerous it really was to drive. Now I am very anxious about driving and it seems to be getting worse.
When I look back and think about the trips I am amazed that we even thought it would be possible. Maybe the media makes the bad news seem so much closer and more important than it really is???
