The Future I Worry About

Can I say EVERYTHING?!! I am a worrywart and those who know me will agree. I worry about everything and anything and not just about the future.

I like to have everything laid out for me, good or bad. Knowing beforehand seems like a good idea but is it really? The unknown is scary and not knowing makes it worse. However, having a crystal ball is not going to make things a whole lot better I think. In my case, I would know what is coming and go CRAZY!

Worrying about the future was a daily thing but now I say whatever comes my way, I am fully capable of handling it. I truly believe that we are strong enough and capable enough of dealing with whatever life throws our way. There is so much strength within us and we haven’t tapped into half of it! Think back to all the times you thought that what you had in front of you was impossible and that it was too big and nothing you do could make it better. Well, you’re still here having slayed that monster.

I hope the future will be kind, it will be filled with abundance and it will bring the man of my dreams into my life but if one or the other doesn’t happen, that is alright too. I’m not putting all my eggs into one basket as they say and if it doesn’t go as planned, I will deal with it at that time.

Worrying is for the birds and that applies to the future as well!

  1. I read your reflections on worrying about the future, and I completely relate. It’s interesting how much our minds can dwell on the unknown. Your perspective of handling whatever comes your way is inspiring. It’s true that we often underestimate our own strength.

    I also hope the future will be kind to all of us and filled with opportunities. Keeping an open mind and not putting all our eggs in one basket is a wise approach. Let’s embrace the journey ahead, whatever it may bring!

  2. Thank you. I do think that we underestimate our own strength and it is an incredible force within waiting to be tapped when life throws us those lessons that seem unfathomable and impossible to overcome. Thank you again and have a wonderful Sunday.

  3. Im 80. and my husband is 81. We are both aging well in some spots and not so well in others. Mercifully we seem to be aging differently so that together we constitute an entire human being. No canes, no walkers. My main concern is which one of us goes first?

    1. The truth of the matter is that one of you will go first, it is seldom that both go together. The other thing is that when it happens, hard though it may be, you will learn to adjust. Thank you Judy.
