All is Well
Wednesday, March 25th, 2009“If I could tell the world just one thing, it would be, we’re all OK.”
Jewel
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.”
