My mom gave me this little wall sign a few weeks ago. She knows me. I am a worrier. I tacked it on the wall next to my computer so I can look at it every time I am working.
Worrying is carrying tomorrow's load with today's strength - carrying two days at once. It is moving into tomorrow ahead of time. Worrying doesn't empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.
-Corrie ten Boom
What a great quote. I'm a worrier too and people remind me all the time that worrying never solved anything.
It really doesn't June Piper-Brandon, it just distracts from the "Now". But I am really guilty of it. -Kasey
My mother loved Corrie ten Boom who was in a concentration camp for helping Jews during WWII. What an inspiration and a great quote for you to live by.
Kasey what an awesome message and how nice of your mom, now in all fairness it is easier said then done.... the good news is it keeps you razor sharp:))Endre
Morning Kasey.
What a great message so early this morning. Got to get me one of those, to put on my wall
Good morning Kasey. I think you Mom was right. No sense worrying but planning is another thing.

Your Mom was right, Kasey. I call it "borrowing" trouble. And I'm always telling my clients it's not worth worrying about something before we know that we need to do so.
Thanks, Kasey. I could use this near my computer as well. Wise words of wisdom.
Your Mom is wise and that is a great set of words to look at each and every day, I tend to worry about tomorrow as well.
Kasey, your mom knows you well, and what a great saying. We all need this on occasion!
Lynnea Miller I read Corrie ten Boom's book, "The Hiding Place" when I was a kid. She's always been a respected woman in my family. -Kasey
Endre Barath, Jr., it is easier said than done for sure. That's why it needs to be up on my wall as a reminder. I struggle with worrying... -Kasey
James Dray it's definitely a wall-worthy quote. I need the reminder, that's for sure. -Kasey
Wayne Martin, she sure did. Thanks for stopping by and commenting! -Kasey

Nina Hollander I often try to talk myself out of my worrying ways. It really is a bummer to spend so much time and energy on something that is out of our control. This quote is really a good reminder. -Kasey
