I may need to write this down to read at such times. <BR/><BR/>"We just don't worry about that". <BR/><BR/>Here's one of my favorites that I keep on my quote wall at work: <BR/><BR/>"If worry had the power to help, I'd worry 24 hours a day and I'd ask you to help me. But it won't."AdriansCrazyLifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04463022076036044242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-12312826300569923012008-10-03T00:28:00.000-07:002008-10-03T00:28:00.000-07:00very insightful. it seems we are facing similar d...very insightful. it seems we are facing similar dilemmas. (see my latest entry). so ill give you the advice i am giving myself (and trying my best to take!)...take a deep inhale. exhale. none of it matters. none of it's real. (by it, i mean all that is external). so as you are saying, let it go. focus on what is real. your true Self. the one universal lifeforce that we all possess and share.<BR/>namaste!<BR/>evaEvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07710718860137094581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-9863253774553790022008-10-02T17:21:00.000-07:002008-10-02T17:21:00.000-07:00Hi, Kavi!I like that.

And I'll bet it works. Pick up anything you wrote about in high school.

I think there are lots of worried people around at the moment and we have to take personal responsibility for what we can control and then just throw our hands up and say what will be will be. <BR/><BR/>However, I think now is the time that we should all support one another to in more ways than we may ahve done before. Whether that means just more inspirational talk like your post, a helping hand, some ideas to cut costs, whatever. I read the other day of this tip that a woman uses when she worries. If she cannto solve the problem immeditately she writes it on a piece of paper and puts it in a drawer. Every week she goes back to the drawer to relook at whats there and sure enough a lot of the peices of paper she can toos because the worries have resolved themselves. Great post and wise grandmom too!Lillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14597193176450931002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-83787416568119226122008-10-02T08:32:00.000-07:002008-10-02T08:32:00.000-07:00I guess i read something around 'circle of concern...I guess i read something around 'circle of concern' and 'circle of influence' ! While we can be concerned with a whole world, we perhaps can have influence over a limited set ! <BR/><BR/>And the chap with blinkers on for 30 miles...i agree with you : let him go ! <BR/><BR/>As your gradmom said : we dont worry about that !!Kavihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11426040093753611098noreply@blogger.com
