Reflections


Worrying is like the motor when the car is standing still:the motor gets hot,the parts wear out,fuel is wasted and you're going nowhere.


Life is hard by the yard;it's a cinch by the inch.


We teach others how to treat us;we teach by permitting.

((((((((((((((Angel)))))))))))))))),


I'm really worried about me not worrying worrying enough! I mean I should be doing all this worrying because I have too.  I mean if I don't worry about everything who will? I worry about that too! I then I worry about the person doing the worrying for me! I mean what if they don't worry enough for me?  That makes me worry about them.     NOT!


A little worrying is okay, too much is paralyzing.  Not gonna do that!  Gotta keep on moving! 


Thanks for the reminder and chuckle.


Live strong,


Karilynn
