Yesterday one of our chickens had gotten sick, so we killed it. I was doing an online search trying to figure out if it would be okay for us to eat a sick chicken. It was a really big bird and I hated to see so much meat go to waste. Doing my online search all sorts of things came up. One was an article that caught my eye. It was about a young girl in America who went out to eat at a restaurant, ate chicken, and then got sick. She then later developed a disorder that prevented her from absorbing nutrients from her food and will be on IV nutrition for the rest of her life. She blamed it all from eating chicken at a restaurant that might not have been cooked well enough. The article went on to discuss all the problems that you could have if you ate chicken. It even gave really grose details of how the American poultry industry sprays Arsenic on the chickens and how much Arsenic Americans consume each year from certain products. This article tried to scare you into never eating a piece of chicken again, for the possibility of illness or death.
Now when it comes to Not eating a sick chicken, that can border common sense, but there are other things that we can apply to the What If statement. I started thinking about all of the other things in the world that try to scare us. The news media is especially bad about playing on people's fears of ... What If. I believe that each person should use common sense in certain situations but also not let dramatic What Ifs stop you from something, especially when it is the right thing to do. There are many situations in my life where the What If statement applies. It can apply to many different people in many different ways. But What If... You turned your What If statements into something positive. What if, I.....
I encourage you today to Have More Faith, Let Go of some of your negative What If's, and Do What you fully Believe is Right, According to God's will.
What are some What If Thoughts that you have been thinking about... Please feel free to comment below. I would love for you to share your thoughts. :-)

My name is Joe Pinzone and I'm casting an international travel show about expats moving abroad. We'd love to film in Tanzania and wanted to know if you could help us find expats who have moved there within the last 15 months or have been there for 3-4 years, but recently moved into a new home. The show documents their move to a new country and will place the country in fabulous light. The contributors on the show would also receive monetary compensation if they are filmed. If you'd like more information, please give me a call at 212-231-7716 or skype me at joefromnyc. You can also email me at joepinzone@leopardusa.com. Looking forward to hearing from you.
