Anyone seen a copper car?

It is interesting what life brings us.  This past Sunday when I was working at church my purse was stolen from the nursery and along with it went my car (err Justin and my car).   After the initial shock and anger, I realized that it wasn't that big of a deal.  By the time the police came, I was laughing about it...in a I can't believe this happened but thank God no one was hurt, at least its only a car kind of laugh.  I had just gotten the car, so I was used to not having one.  In truth it wasn't until I realized that my favorite blue sweater was in the back seat of the car that I got pissed and even then that passed pretty quickly.  
This has put a lot of things in perspective for me.  If I don't stress about my car and purse being stolen (yes, it is a total inconvenience and disappointing but everything can be replaced) than I should not stress about the other things in life that have had me worried.  So this is my new theme on life!  Stress less!  Worry less!  I read once a saying that goes something like this: "when worry comes knocking at your door, send faith to answer and you will find that there is no one there"  This is what I am trying to do.  
Once again, I am writing ridiculously late and I need to get some sleep!

PS on a side note I had my first Sign dream! Other people in class have said that they have started dreaming and signing but I had not until just the other night!   I hope that this becomes more of a fixture in my dream world!  it makes things a bit more fun :)
