Daily Word Vitamin: WORRY Of course there will always be dilemmas in life that need our attention. However habitual WORRY is driven by fear based thought. When facing a dilemma what helps us most rather than hinder us is to deliberately decide to change gears, shifting from WORRY into prudent concern. Prudence is a beautiful Latin word that simply means caution. Like the yellow traffic light prudence encourages us to slow down, take our time and take care. Concern is a word that also has Latin routes derived from the term to mingle together. Both of these words prudent concern involve love, wisdom, connection and self care. So next time we catch ourselves getting drunk on fear, immobilised with WORRY, prudent concern is like a good sobering strong coffee, its our solution. A few keys reminders to help make the U turn away from WORRY towards prudent concern ... Is there a yellow light of caution we can bring to the situation through our actions or words that could be said or done to help slow down chaotic fear? Are there words or actions that could be said or done to reassure connection, support and love are available? Sometimes if were alone just remembering that WORRY wont keep the bad stuff from happening tomorrow, it just removes any enjoyment of the good stuff around us today is important. WORRY doesnt take away our troubles it just takes away our personal peace. So with our week before us lets decide to replace any WORRIES with prudent concerns remembering it serves no purpose WORRYING about things we have no control over for there is nothing we can do about them ... and WORRYING about the things we do have control over just keeps us immobilised. WORRY causes depression rendering us frozen in fear. Prudent concern allows us to show we care, do our best to any dilemma and conserve our peace of mind and self respect. Happy Monday, lotsa love Cynthia
