Worry is Absurd (if you think of all that can happen)

Nothing but what you get from first impressions. That someone has insulted you, for instance. That -but not that it’s done you any harm. The fact that my son is sick -that I can see. But “that he might die of it”, no. Stick with first impressions. Don’t extrapolate. And nothing can happen to you.

Or extrapolate. From a knowledge of all that can happen in the world. - Marcus-Aurelius

If you are going to worry than why limit yourself. Worry about everything that can happen. Then start worrying about a meteor that could fall tomorrow that hasn’t been announced to the public.

Worry is weakness

Aimlessness-is-a-vice

Aimlessness is a vice, and such drifting must not continue for him who would steer clear of catastrophe and destruction.

They who have no central purpose in their life fall an easy prey to pretty worries, fears, troubles and self-pityings, all of which are indications of weakness…

from As-a-Man-Thinketh by James-Allen
