You just have to laugh

Notice some of the things in your life that you worried and worried about, that turned out to be trivial, insignificant, or even completely fabricated.

Also, notice some of the things you did not worry about at all, never saw coming, and never thought to concern yourself with, that either challenged you or surprised you in ways that completely rocked your world.

Our minds trick us into believing our thoughts are an accurate assessment of what will impact our lives, when really, they are often just stories built from limited information, old fears, and a desire to control what cannot be predicted.

The truth is, we are not nearly as good at forecasting our lives as we think we are, and it turns out we aren’t meant to be. We are meant to live in wonder, awe, and curiosity of the unfolding. And to laugh at how we make it so hard to do soemthing so simple.

What if you were able to find a little freedeom from worry by finding some humor in our humanness?
