I always have been a worrier and time has not really made this any better. When I was single I worried about being on my own, when I was no longer single I worried that I might miss being on my own, now I am single again I worry that I am not worrying about being on my own.
I worry about being overweight, so I went on a healthy living kick and lost 3 stone, I now worry that I am too thin and worry because of this worry that I will put on 10 stone to compensate. I worry that Jess will not turn out into the genius I hoped for (as if) I worry that my expectations are too high, I worry that this thought might create low expectations for her, I worry that I will just be happy whatever she does because this will prove I stopped worrying about the most important person to me.
I worry about living in the UK, I worry about crime, pollution, noisy neighbours, quiet neighbours, inflation, tax, work, love, family and stress. I worry that if I was not in the UK I would miss crime, pollution, noisy neighbours, quiet neighbours, inflation, tax, work, love, family and stress.
I worry that if I had nothing to worry about I would be worried that something bad was about to happen and the longer it didn't the more worried I would get. I worry that I am getting old yet worry that I am not yet old enough to stop letting all the things in life worry me. I need to stop worrying it is as simple as that, I need some strategies but I worry they might be the wrong ones.
Does this worry you?
Oh dear, John! It is a bit worrying ;)
