We cannot enjoy life
if we spend our time and energy
worrying about what happened yesterday
and what will happen tomorrow.
If we are afraid all the time
we miss out on the wonderful fact
that we are alive and
can be happy right now....

Stay where your hands are has always been a guiding post for me.
Worry steals life like nothing else.
