I’ve always loved the song Hands by Jewel. It is a beautiful song and to me, seems more timely than ever.  So many of us are worried about what is going to happen to us – will we lose our jobs, can we pay our bills, what happens if I get sick?  These things can happen, and they may not, so you end up worrying about things that never take place.

I am still in the hospital and I am scheduled to go home instead of a physical therapy rehab.  I have my moments when I worry, “I don’t feel ready, what is going to happen to me?”  But I can’t keep my focus there.

We all know that whatever you pay attention to expands.  So you have to keep your focus on what you want.  I have to keep my focus on what I want – being able to walk out of the hospital and be able to take care of myself.

So for all of us – I am putting a YouTube version of Jewel singing, Hands to remind us:

“Not to worry ’cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these”
I won’t be made useless
I won’t be idle with despair
I will gather myself around my faith
For light does the darkness most fear”

I would like to hear your comments and experiences with worry and fear and how you deal with it.

Remember, “We are never broken.”
