Worry
If anyone had asked me if I was a “worrier” a few years ago, I would have answered with a definite no. I have always considered myself one of those optimistic people who unfailingly see the glass as half full. I still do.
However, when I listen to my own words carefully, I realize that while I don’t use the word worry a lot, I actually do worry – quiet often. I hear myself using phrases like: “I hope….; What if….; I don’t think we should do that because….; I’m afraid that if….; I’m concerned….; Every time we try to do that…. Not words that reveal a very trusting heart.
To read the rest of this post please visit me at Laced With Grace. I will be there bright and early monday morning.
Blessings,

Linda,
Thank you for your sweet comment on my post. I am headed over to Laced with Grace right now to read more about worry. Lord knows that I am guilty of that from time to time. I see my cup as half full too which is saying alot for me. Especially since I come from a very long line of worriers.
Blessings, Joanne
"Concern" is great substitute word for worry, isn't it??
