Worry is a Waste of Time

“Predictability is an illusion,” I heard recently. For example, if I asked you “what is 1 + 1, you would say 2. But is it always 2? One pile of laundry plus one pile of laundry equals one. So, 1 + 1 does not always equal 2.” We are all individuals. Our behavior is unique. We are unique. So, why do we worry so much about predicting what will happen if predicting outcomes are not certain. Let it go people. Be curious and enjoy the world like a child. Do children worry or do they just go along without thinking about the outcomes or trying to control the outcomes? No, they just play. What if we treat the world with curiosity and with an attitude of let’s just see what happens? What if we choose to have fun every day and in every place we go whether it be work or school or cooking supper. Turn up the tunes. Dance a little. Let go of decisions or having to decide. Just go with the flow. Be in the moment and don’t think about 15 minutes from now or tomorrow. You’ll have less stress and live longer. :)Matthew 6:26-34 NKJV

Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. – But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. – Matthew 6:26-34
