The Nature Of Worry

Christina8

It's such an incessant thing

Worrying about everything

 

Not living in the moment

Not letting your spirit sing

 

Borrowing trouble from tomorrow

Doesn't help us today

 

Try to be fearless and that

worry just might go away!

        What a Friend we have in JESUS
        All our Pain & Grief to bare
        What a privilege to carry
        EVERYTHING to GOD in PRAYER !

        Thanks for sharing and caring CHRIS ~ Life does try us from day to day and I know (from experience) how important a CAR is in the USA ! In the UK things are close enough to walk or cycle and we have great local BUS SERVICES and 50% of UK families don't own a car ! My experience of the USA is that because over 85% of Families own a car ~ bus services decline ~ nobody walks and it is dangerous to cycle ~ SO A CAR becomes a NECESSITY not a LUXURY ~ so I do understand ! FOR EVERY 1000 People in the USA 910 Cars CANADA 662 Cars UK 519 Cars ~ In LESOTHO (South Africa) where some of my extended Family help with a Mission & Prince Harry runs a Project there are only 4 Cars per 1000 people ! Those I have met are very happy in a CAR~LESS SOCIETY ~ Both my sets of Greatgrandparents ~ never owned a CAR ! I know these stats don't help but it does show how dependent we have all become on TECHNOLOGY and by doing so we are destroying the PLANET with Global Warming ~ Deforestation ~ Sea Level Rise etc ~ What annoys me is that Trump is blind to all this and America uses more fossil fuel and produces more CO2 per capita than any other Country ~ You should all push for AL GORE to be President in 2020 ~ OK Sorry for the rant ~ We are praying for you 24/7 ~ Tus Hermanos ~ Angela y Brian @@@@@@@

          Thank you for your wonderful reply. But I must add I don't have buses or any other form of transport. Small town, remember? (but not small enough for bikes) Thanks for the prayers--prayers for you both as well!!! Christina

            Thanks CHRIS ~ Its 12:30 pm here I/m in my PJ's but just turning the machine off ~ Pleased we touched base ! Yes that is on of the things we notice in the USA no local busses and too too much reliance on the CAR I blame HENRY and his MODEL T ! The reliance on the CAR (almost one per person) and too many elevators is one of the many causes of obesity in the USA ! Obama was a much better Role Model than TRUMP ! every Blessing for tommorow ~ you could get a scooter now that it's Spring again ! I had a Lanbretta when i was at UNI great mobility and park anywhere ~ we have to wear helmets in the UK and I wear a riding hat on my BICYCLE and cycle clips to keep my trousers out of the chain ~ OK ~ Abrazos de tus Hermanos A & B @@@@@@@

              I always appreciate your kind reply! Thanks very much!

              We should always live in the moment and treasure each one of them. We can not change the past but if we live in the moment we may be able to ease the future.

                Thanks for your wise advice Andy! I appreciate the reply!

                A beautiful inner writing
                May you turn the worry into something amazing
                There's nothing you can't do it just takes stages
                Never forget you're as awesome as your words are 😉

                • Christina8

                  As always Dan, you bring a smile to my face with your kind reply! I really appreciate you bringing that smile to my day!

                  • Poetic Dan
