A Word on Wednesday: Worry
People warn not to worry, yet concerns continue and mount without seeming end. These concerns amass to draw attention. If one is careless, the attention becomes worry.
To worry is to torment oneself with disturbing thoughts; to torment with cares, anxieties. To worry is to trouble or plague.
It is likely true, then, that no good can come from worry. Worried sick and sick with worry result.
Consider, then, worry’s antonyms — comfort, reassure, and trust. Also, if you get tired of worrying, you can always find some work to do.
