Worry: Praying for What We Don’t Want
To say I don’t worry, at all, now that’s a lie. But when I heard this,
Worrying is like praying for something we don’t want.
It was a recircuitry for my brain.
“I worry about you, that’s my job.”
Why though? Is it your job to have anxiety for me?
Caring for and having concern at times for the people I love when they make certain choices, I do that.
At the end of the day, it’s your life, though. No amount of worry will make the situation better.
It’s just suffering in my mind, twice. Yikes.
Resuffering, definitely not something I need. About a situation that may, or may not happen.
Maybe it will happen but maybe it won’t and I certainly don’t need to suffer twice.
Is worry actually a sign of care?
It isn’t some neon light that shows me that you love me. In fact, it does the opposite.
