So we have to understand that the kind of thoughts we have, the amount of stress we have in our life

affects us spiritually but it also affects us physically. How many of you agree with what I'm saying here today?

Okay. Now it's good to sit there and agree but let me just be plain and say

I'm doing this so you'll make a decision to make some changes.

If you want to relieve some of the stress in your life just slow down.

If you're taking notes, write down slow down and maybe you should make four, five, six, ten, twenty signs

and put them all around your house, slow down, slow down, slow down, slow down, slow down.

Amen. My family teases me although it's really not funny, it's just part of my shows how I am.

I'm always ready for the next thing while this thing is happening.

And so when I'm half the way home from wherever we're coming home from, I get my door keys out.

I'm ready to open that door when I get there.

And my daughter takes me a lot of places and she says mother,

would you please wait until I park the car before you open the door and try to get out of it?

And I don't know why I do that but I've got my hand on that door handle.

I mean let me take some, I may be nothing else but I'm ready.

One time I wasn't paying any attention and you know we rent cars here and there and we rent a lot of white cars.

The car they drive me in at home is a white car.

So one day I came out of a restaurant in St. Louis and there was a white car there and I got in it.

Well guess what, I got in the car with somebody who knew me.

From televisions, freak her out.

And I was like, ah!
