We live in a world of worriers. Today people worry about everything from the coming of an apocalypse to what they want to eat for dinner. Worrying has unfortunately become a normal part of everyday life and is generally just accepted as a typical part of society. I personally am the queen of worrying, and I hate it. I am the type of person to completely over-analyze and over-complicate absolutely everything under the sun, no matter how ridiculous it might be. I do not mean to do it, it just happens, but I am sick of it.
I have come to the conclusion, however, that nothing good ever comes from worrying. It does not solve any problems, and there is really no point in doing so. Often times, I find myself worrying about things in which I cannot change. But why? All I am doing is creating unnecessary tension within myself. As for scenarios that I can change, instead of worrying about them, why don't I just change them? Easier said than done, but life is not supposed to be easy.
So, as I go into 2017, I am not going to worry about what may lie ahead in the year to come. My head is held high, and as each new challenge is thrown at me, I will face it head on. There are going to be times where I will need to accept that things are out of my control, and as difficult as it might be, that is exactly what I will try to do... because what's the use in worrying?
