Re: Worry

I worry about people...
Those masquerading as "normal"

Even on here.

Yes you are correct, the illusionist is easily spotted, best avoided, viewed with interest and nothing else.

An empty vessel masquerading as substance.

Making sense of 'life' ? impossible

Re: Worry

Wot, Me Worry?

A worry gene is implanted in my DNA
It predisposes me to attacks of anxiety!
Each new day is greeted with a frown,
What problem will disquiet my breast today?
Will World War 3 eliminate the human race?
Or a meteor hit my house before I break my fast?
The news bulletin provides an endless worry opportunity.
Earthquakes, floods, interminable bad news items
To add to my already overfull lexicon of cares.
I find a lump in my bra, PANIC, OH GOLLY GOSH!
Relief as the large crumb of toast is revealed!
The day rolls on, no major disasters to report,
Then why is my face still puckered with concern?
I am worried because I have nothing to worry about!!!!!!!!!!!

RJG




I am a born worrier, I am always concerned about something. Most of the photos of me as a young child show a worried frown.

Re: Worry

I think if they could remove the part of the brain that causes worry we would probably all live longer, I probably would have enjoyed life a bit more.

I have this saying: There's no point in worrying a about something because next week you will be worrying about something else.

Unfortunately, I don't always stick to it.

Re: Worry

I worry about people close to me... I also worry that I worry too much

Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.

Re: Worry

When you think about what you worried about last year, you got through it!
If you're worried about something now, next year it will be gone.
I think the saying about things that don't kill you, make you stronger is very true!

Afraid I have to disagree with that.

Sounds great, but it all comes down to one's programming.
If the foundations have not been installed then it simply won't work.
