Don't Worry be Happy!

Do not be anxious about tomorrow for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. How often do we worry about what the following day will hold and how we plan for the next holiday, the next meeting, the next match and yet surely all the pondering will not influence the result.  Indeed tomorrow has so many permutations and concerns that it will surely be filed with anxiousness.  Our task is to ensure that what we do today matters, or at least has the potential to make a difference somewhere in our sphere of influence.  Some have truly important tasks in life like surgeons and presidents, others to be the best mom or friend in a situation, for some it is the call to be teachers and mentors and business men of stature and influence.  To each I suppose is given their own worries and concerns for such is the nature of life.  But without trying to get too philosophical, it remains then that knowing that tomorrow's anxiousness will be taken care of by tomorrow itself, surely we owe it to ourselves to live outwardly and boldly and be men and woman of character.  We can replace the anxiousness with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness and self control.  We can afford to take a step into something with confidence and not feel afraid of mistakes and their consequences.  We need to try above all to make the day count and enjoy doing what we have been tasked to do.  It may not be that glamorous and it may only be for a season or time in your life, but while you are doing it, focus on doing it to the best of your ability.  Whether you are on pension or in the heat of a boardroom, the outcome should be the same, to reach the end of the day satisfied that you have endeavoured and toiled not in vain, but in happiness and peace.
