Should I Worry?

Looking back ,I’ve often thought I was a worrier and they say that to worry is bad for your health.

However,I think my worrying did me good,it was like a pre-emptive strike on life.

I can remember in my teenage years sitting  an exam, thinking this is a disaster ,I’ve done it all wrong and quickly redoing my work,scribbling out and fixing it as best I could.Weirdly I got a really good grade.Other exams I’ve thought I cracked it and I failed miserably.

I still worry about people I know and their health, I worry about my health,I worry about money,I worry about the dog ,the possibilities are endless.

And should the worse happen, perhaps my pre-emptive thinking will  ease the pain.I don’t think my worrying is a waste of time.I think it’s a way of working through a problem.

  1. My friend, your kind of worrying isn’t weakness—it’s your strength in disguise. It shows you care deeply, think ahead, and want the best for yourself and others.
    And the fact that it’s helped before? That’s proof it’s part of your way of winning quietly. Keep being you—it’s working.
