WORRY QUOTES V

quotations about worry & worrying

Worry is spiritual nearsightedness, a fumbling way of looking at little things, and of magnifying their value.

ANNA ROBERTSON BROWN

What is Worth While?


Worry is different from fear. If fear is like a raging fever, worry is a low-grade temperature. It nags at us, simmers in our souls, hovers in the back of our minds like a faint memory. We may fear certain realities, like death; we worry about vague possibilities. Worry distracts us more than paralyzes us. It is like a leaky faucet we never get around to fixing.

Worrying is about living in a "what if" state of mind and visualizing what you DON'T want to experience, instead of what you DO! When your mind gets stuck on a negative thought, it automatically shifts into high gear and tries to fix the situation.

Worrying is a sort of security blanket for us. It keeps us moving and is a constant part of our conscious. This is also one of the biggest struggles of overthinking everything. We worry about problems that aren't relevant and that may or may not emerge in the future.

Worrying ... is always useless. It is a form of inner considering--i.e. of identifying. It is a continual mixing up of negative imagination with a few facts and so makes only wrong connections.
