It's not worry; it's concern.

When asked if he worried, Michael Collins, command pilot for Apollo 11 answered: No! It's concern.

Collins' clarification was significant to me prior to June 3, 2014 and has been ringing in my ears since then. It's concern, not worry! What human being is not concerned about one's health and overall well-being? Who among humans is not concerned about one's family and friends, their health, well-being? Ultimately and by virtue of being human, the health and well-being of one's community, country, the planet and all of life should be hailed as a quality to be cultivated rather than medicated. Reflected in our relations with each other is the mentality and thus the values of corporate think!

It could be worse! We could have capitalist profiteers, supplying their army from the rank and file of the indifferent, the unconcerned, stay in business, and then we will all celebrate from our graves--the best health care system in the world.

But there will be war and war and more war!
