Don't worry - it's a waste of time!

I have known a great many troubles, 
but most of them never happened.

~ Mark Twain ~

Worry is one of the most useless emotions. How many times have you worried about something that never happened? And how many times have things happened to you that you could not have imagined would happen? If something is going to happen, it's going to happen.  And if it does, you'll have to deal with it. So why worry about something that most likely will not happen? How much of life are you missing out on because you are so focused on the thing you're worried about?

So what are you supposed to do if you're not worrying? Live your life!!  Be happy!!  There is a time for everything. If it's not a time to be sad, don't be sad. Stay in the moment. I love what Eckhart Tolle says about this. He says that everything that happens in the future, happens in the now. So anything you're worrying about will happen in the now (if it's going to happen).  So, what's going on in your life now? Is it the thing you're worrying about? If it isn't happening now, let it go and enjoy what is going on now. Enjoy watching the sunrise, the beauty of a sunset, or the sounds of a little baby. And stop worrying!!
