I know everyone's probably feeling stressed. Christmas has come and gone, but credit card bills are lingering on. So this test can tell if you're stressed or not. It's so simple, but it really does work.

~~~

The picture below has 2 identical dolphins in it. It was used in a case study on stress levels at the Mayo Clinic and later at Fletcher Medical Center in Burlington.

Look at both dolphins jumping out of the water. The dolphins are identical. A closely monitored, scientific study revealed that, in spite of the fact that the dolphins are identical, a person under stress will find many differences between the two dolphins.

The more differences a person finds, the more stress that person is experiencing.

Look at the photograph under the cut and, if you find more than one or two differences, you may need to take a vacation.





So...stressed or not? :oD

You're welcome, Helen. I thought it was hilarious.

Sorry to hear you're so badly stressed though. You need a vacation!

My life is a vacation. LOL!

The stress is mainly about our daughter and her family and they're money problems. i.e. they have none. She's trying to find work she can do from home with her old job. Things are looking up in that area right now, so please keep your fingers crossed for her. =>}

You can just never stop worrying about your "children". =>}

Unfortunately, her job paid very well and his does not. He works all the hours of a day and week and more, yet has a very low wage. There is no justice in this.

Thanks very much! =>}
