"It’s a jungle out there Poison in the very air we breathe Do you know what’s in the water that you drink? Well I do, and it’s amazing People think I’m crazy, ’cause I worry all the time If you paid attention, you’d be worried too You better pay attention Or this world we love so much might just kill you I could be wrong now, but I don’t think so!"
Worrying is the mental distress or agitation resulting from anxiety, usually coming from a place of anticipatory fear (terror) or fear coming from a present threat (horror). With more understanding of the situation, worry becomes concern, the recognition of a future outcome that could be troubling, without necessarily having fear in that outcome.
"So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 28 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 29 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field... will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?"
Worry"When this flood blocks the road I am worried more by my soil getting washed, than by getting late to reach my destination."
Worry"My mistake has too often been that of too much haste. But it is not the people’s way to hurry, nor is it God’s way either. Hurry means worry, and worry effectually drives the peace of God from the heart."
Worry"He who climbs above the cares of this world, and turns his face to his God, has found the sunny side of life. The worlds side of the hill is chill and freezing to a spiritual mind; but the Lords presence gives a warmth of joy which turns winter into summer."
Worry"Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 31 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.32 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 33 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. 34"
Worry"Why art thou troubled and anxious about many things? One thing is needful — to love Him and to sit attentively at His feet."
Worry"The wound is the place where the Light enters you."
Rumi"yes is a pleasant country... love is a deeper season than reason"
E. E. Cummings"true lovers in each happening of their hearts live longer than all which and every who"
E. E. Cummings"What concerns me fundamentaly is a meteoric burlesk melodrama, born of the immemorial adage love will find a way."
E. E. Cummings"Who made you glorious as the gates of heaven Beneath the keen full moon? Who bade the sun Clothe you with rainbows? Who, with living flower Of loveliest blue, spread garlands at your feet? God! let the torrents, like a shout of nations, Answer! and let the ice-plains echo, God! God! sing, ye meadow-streams, with gladsome voice! Ye pine-groves, with your soft and soul-like sounds! And they too have a voice, yon piles of snow, And in their perilous fall shall thunder, God!"
Samuel Taylor Coleridge"Unchanged within, to see all changed without, Is a blank lot and hard to bear, no doubt. Yet why at others Wanings shouldst thou fret? Then only mightst thou feel a just regret, Hadst thou withheld thy love or hid thy light In selfish forethought of neglect and slight."
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
