Another home invasion was reported on the news. Mary Ann, who was a nervous person by nature, felt a hundred-fold more nervous! She looked out her window into the darkness, and imagined seeing dark shadows lurking in her yard. Frightening images flooded her mind! Her hands began to shake as her heart started pounding! Should she get a gun? Should she set up a camera outside her house?
Ding! Ding! Ding! She jumped! It was her microwave letting her know her food was ready! At the same time, the "ding" sparked off an idea in her head, like a light bulb. Home Security!
Mary Ann rushed to her laptop. She typed in something, and the website Best Home Security lighted up her screen! As she read on, she felt her nervous heart calming down. Suddenly she felt the power to protect herself! She walked over to the microwave and took out her food, and ate it slowly. Instead of spending time worrying about the possibility of being a victim, she had taken positive steps to protect what was hers.
