SOMETHING TO WORRY ABOUT


"Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength."

Corrie Ten Boom, 20th century author

This suggests we should just put worry aside and deal with problems as they arise.

I wish it were that simple.

But we can reduce, if not eliminate, much of what we do worry about.

It's well worth the effort.

I WORRY ABOUT THAT


"When we have nothing to worry about we are not doing much, and not doing much may supply us with plenty of future worries."

Chinese proverb

For most of us, most of the time, the problem is not having nothing to worry about but rather too much.

Or at least so we think.

Take away that not worth worrying about and the list grows considerably shorter.

DO YOU CARE?


"I don't care how much you know until I know how much you care."

Unknown

A bit motherhoodish but still a valid point, particularly when you consider all that one could be expected to care about.

In the best of circumstances not a short list.
