My father (a minister) told me that a man had once sought his counsel. He had been involved in fraud, and this had landed him on the front page of a newspaper. My father asked him, "What was on the front page of the newspaper last week?" The man couldn't remember -- he had no idea.
OBSERVATION: It was certainly rather serious, that he got on the front page of the newspaper for fraud -- but there are times when it is worth remembering that one is dealing with a storm in a teacup.
