You are afraid. You are anxious. Bad things may happen to you. You can get fired. Your spouse may divorce you. You may die this year, and will die eventually.
We are not sure why bad things happen, when they will happen, and what it is that will occur. Why get worked up worrying about it in advance? Why fill your heart with dread and terror until, foreboding and unhappiness taint your whole worldview, until you are continually uneasy, scared, worried and losing much self-esteem?
Be calm. Talk to God. Love yourself, and others as you love yourself. Be optimistic. Be calm. Be at peace. Be strong. Be courageous. Be willful, to work your way through whatever comes, and deal with it with resilience, patience, logic and activism. You can do this. You will come through this and emerge changed but victorious on the other side.
