I do believe this is an appropriate time to post this "teaching" of the concept of "WORRY". As this New Year is upon us, many people make the so called, "New Years Resolutions". Yet within a few days or weeks thay have been forgotten. Without perseverance and inter-strength they are destined to fail as soon as the thought entered your mind or the words were spoken.
I ask you to say to yourself upon waking this New Years' day, "I will not WORRY about anything today". Consciously hold this thought throughout the day, when concerns manifest themselves enter your everyday life. Say this to yourself everyday of your life until it becomes an automatic part of your Being, a habit.

Worry
The word itself is an odd word to speak, just speaking it complicates the mouth. Try saying it, slowly, concentrate on the movements required just to speak this word.
Worry, seem to be an ever present part of the Human Condition.
Worrying, I have found, occupies most peoples' minds on a daily basis. They worry about money, the biggest concern for most, worry about health, your family and friends, the mortgage, whether someone likes or loves you, the wellbeing of the children, business, school, the list seemd to be endless.
What if I tell you, "YOU NEVER HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ANYTHING".
A concept from the Ancestors and taught to me as a boy. Would you believe I have never worried about anything in my many years? I know there will be doubters out there, let me tell you a Story.
Should a situation or a person cause you to be concerned or worry. Your first reaction, seems to be , is to worry about it. THIS IS TRULY NOT NECESSARY.
First of all THINK ABOUT IT, honestly, look deep within yourself. Ask yourself, what can I DO, MYSELF, to change this situation to make it go away or no longer be a concern. Should you find in your mind, NOTHING YOU, YOURSELF, can do to change the problem or situation to make it go away, FORGET ABOUT IT, what ever it is, it is COMPLETELY OUT of YOUR CONTROL, it is going to occur. OR, you could WORRY about it. Worrying is not a healthy thing, Physically, Mentally or Spiritually.
I have found when people get to worrying about something, in their minds, this problem grows bigger and bigger, real or imagined, the more time they spend worrying about something that is completely out of your control it grows greater, in your minds.
So, if there is nothing YOU can do to improve the situation, JUST LET IT GO, FORGET ABOUT IT, all things work themselves out over time. You will find when you worry and in your mind it becomes greater, when this problem manifests itself in your life, it is generally NOT as great a problem as you may have thought it would be, because worrying enlarges problems in your mind.
Worry, what a destructive mind set.
WORRY, WHY?
Think about!
