Fear has been such a major driver in my life. Something I clearly came to heal in this lifetime.
I tend to embrace it as my friend and that is shrinking it massively. if I think, it was fear that stopped me leaning too far over the edge of cliffs, fear that stopped me doing a lot of idiotic things. You could argue common sense as well. Who knows.
And I worry about things, I worry about the future, I worry about the past, I worry about the now. It's very normal ...

Oh, honey, no it's not....we are made to believe it is!
Even the weather man tells us to "worry" about tomorrow or "Don't worry its not
going to rain today."
It is programmed into the subconscious mind, so it makes people actually
Believe it is normal.
If there was one thing I had the power to do it would be to encourage/convince people to not worry.
"Worry is like a rocking chair; it is a lot of effort but doesn't get you anywhere."
And if anyone trusts Jesus' instructions, he says...Do not worry...Be not afraid....
Fear not...give me your burdens.
Paul says, Be anxious for NOTHING.
These are words I finally followed...like for a week or two years ago...and ya know what?
The world didn't end and I had less stress and everything always worked out somehow right down to "Where are my car keys? Now don't stress just talk to God...You find them for me, Lord"..and
Voila!
Cast your cares

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

Once a person experiments for a week, then it becomes 2...of simply catching
The mind when it has thoughts of fear and dread and worry....you realize how much power you have to control these stupid thoughts and how much happier you were.
I have been doing this now for many years. I also say it as, "I completely and totally trust
In my Father, Lord, God Who is everywhere and wants only for me to be happy and free and be with Him."
But that's me. I don't want to necessarily get all spiritual on anyone, I respect
Atheists and agnostics...we all have our path...but let it be fun and worry free for Pete's sake...
All the Masters clue us in on that.
Try for just a week to watch how worry creeps into your thoughts and just say, "NO WAY."
"(Not today, I know where you have lead me before it its a spiral of depression or to a stomach ache and no sleep....and that never got me anywhere!!! I'm done with your antics!!")
...Mr. Mind or Devil or lower ego self trying to take control...you are not the controller of ME!
It's a battle....at first...

Wonderful advice. Thank you for this. I do my best not to worry also. Sometimes being accused of you just don't care. My response always was no I care, I just choose not to worry because in the end it works out anyway. No point of worrying it is not going to take the problems away. More than likely it will make them worse and leaves you feeling ill.
