My worrying is misguided in that it only serves to frighten me, make me afraid of the unknown and cause me to take a very cynical view that nothing will ever change. When these feelings and emotions begin to arouse, I have learned to begin to channel and redirect them into the places where I can have significant impact.

What's the use of worrying?
It never was worth while,
So, pack up your troubles in your old kit-bag,
And smile, smile, smile.

If something worries you, check it out. Do what you can, take care of what you can, and then let it go. At this point, having done all you can, worrying about the issue doesn't do you any good. You could be using that energy in other ways to help you feel better.

JANICE CORSANO

CHAD LEJEUNE

JAFREE OZWALD
