Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow. It empties today of its strength. So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s troubles are enough for today itself — Anonymous We all are habituated to worrying all the time. Aren’t we? In fact, worrying has become our second nature today. In our day-to-day routine, whenever things do not go the way we want or expect them to be, we immediately start worrying about the consequences. The main reason for this is our fear for untoward happenings. For example, suppose one has to reach office for a 10:00 am meeting, but on the way to office, the car gets stuck in a heavy traffic jam. As the clock ticks, one starts fearing if one will miss the meeting and be at the receiving end of boss’s anger. All this while, his/her heart beats faster and one starts sweating in anxiety. Now, hold a minute and just give it a thought as to what is one going to achieve by all this? Would worrying or shouting at others get us any faster out of a traffic jam? Hence, if one is in a difficult situation and one can do something about it, then it is better to act rather than worry. But there are certain situations in life where we cannot do anything. Under such circumstances, if we learn to calmly accept situations, then we would be saved of mental agony and criminal waste of time and energy. Calmly accepting the situations in life is not resignation. It requires knowledge of the real nature of this world and all that is happening in it. We must understand that this world is like a vast drama stage upon which all of us are actors playing our individual roles. Each actor has a distinct role, which is fixed. Hence, if we learn to look at this world and at ours and others actions as a spectator, then we would not be affected so much by the events in the world and around us and remain detached. Whilst keeping this knowledge in mind, when we come into relationship with others, we remain free of any kind of attachment and emotional burden towards them, thereby being detached and in constant awareness of our spiritual identity, which is that of a soul. So, don’t worry about things that don’t worry about you.
