Default Don't Worry, Be Happy

Worries are basically fears. Everyone gets scared, but we all handle fear in different ways. Sometimes, it's easier to dwell on a fear than to do something about it......

God, grant us the...
Serenity to accept things we cannot change,
Courage to change the things we can, and the
Wisdom to know the difference
Patience for the things that take time
Appreciation for all that we have, and
Tolerance for those with different struggles
Freedom to live beyond the limitations of our past ways, the
Ability to feel your love for us and our love for each other and the
Strength to get up and try again even when we feel it is hopeless.



Also: we can learn from all experiences (and perhaps that's why we have them), and even though some are painful to go through, we should be stronger and wiser because of them.

Default Re: Don't Worry, Be Happy

I try to keep the attitude that life is too short to worry, however I am only human so worrying is one of my flaws- well more being a stress bunny- I'm not scared of these things as I think life throws things at you that you just have to deal with but you can worry about the unknown- playing out a million different scenarios when at the end of the day you often have little control over everything in your life and things are never quite as bad as you imagine it to be (touch wood).

But i worry about the following;

Loosing my family- inevitable and part of life but i worry about my mum alot
Money/security- note why I am here sorting out my future security
Being a failure- note why Im a workaholic.
I worry about my house not being immaculate at all times - the OCD in me - I am a perfectionist and can't stand things to be out of place- to the point I have got up in the middle of the night to put random things in the right place. I try to fight the urge but alas i cannot.

I believe you can only do so much, what is meant for you won't pass you by. Money comes and goes, at the end of the day if you have your health and people you love in your life your as rich as you need to be- everything else is a bonus. Inevitably life will be kind and cruel to you, worrying won't change things but making the most of good times and getting through the bad times as best you can isn't a bad way to live.

I guess this may come back to the 'glass half empty, glass half full' way of thinking. There are those who worry that if they had or hadn't done such and such a thing, things could or would have been better. Seems to me they're always looking back (and we all know that hindsight is a wondrous thing - it has 20/20 vision for one thing).

Then there are those who are, perhaps relatively or even very, happy with the decisions they've made with they're lives and don't particularly worry if things may have been different and/or better if they hadn't made those decisions and get on with their lives and look forward to new opportunities.

Personally speaking my glass is always half full ... and if it get's any emptier than that it gets a refill - it's either time for a top up or time for a new adventure.

Cheers!

that is exactly what I needed to hear, right now, KC. Thank you.

Funnily enough, I worry about worrying because it's at that point that I've lost sight of how things just work out - maybe not to plan or to your liking, maybe better, but they will. That uncertainty worries me, up until the point where I say "sod that for a game of soldiers" and do something about it.

We're fortunate that in reality, we don't need to worry about fundamental things like not being able to feed your family, not having a roof over your head or not having access to basic services. It's a question of perspective.
