The things you worry about are the things that are important to you.

Sometimes we pretty up worrying by calling it “concerns” but we usually know when we’re just worrying.

We imagine that all of the important things in our lives are high minded: faith, family, career, or health.

And our concerns about those things at least make sense.

Sort of.

What’s the bigger question is being afraid of things that really, really shouldn’t be important to you. Things you can do nothing about. What strangers (especially online) think of you.

Stuff like that.

The bottom line: worry is a pointless emotion. Do everything you can, and then trust things will work out. They usually do.
