Worry

Worry is a strong feeling of anxiety. When things trouble your mind, it is obvious that one will be worried. People get worried about a lot of things, it could be what to eat, where to stay, what to sell,  how to sell and many other things. It varies from person to person. 

Life worries

Everybody is not treated equally by life, some are happy while some are sad. The happiness will not be forever likewise the sadness is not staying for life. God has designed the world in that pattern, some will smile today and cry tomorrow while some will cry today and laugh tomorrow, some will cry today, cry tomorrow and still cry after that and at the end laugh, some will laugh today, laugh tomorrow and later cry after. Life isn't in full support of anyone, no matter how comfortable you may be, you will face difficulties that will surely get you worried. 

Rich people have a lot of things that they get worried about from time to time. The poor also get worried about things too. 

Clerics, monks and other religious related people get worried also, they are human beings with special duties. 

The able are worried and the disabled get worried too.

One thing I will want my readers to learn from my article is that, not everything that get you worried will be solved, it's two or three dimensional it is either solved, half solved or unsolved.

When you get worried unnecessarily, fear will get you, it will reduce your thinking and make you inferior, you will see things harder than your mate. 

Worry and anxiety are twin brothers, they are harmful to mental health and physical health. 

Fear of death

Death is inevitable, every soul shall taste death, some people get worried unnecessarily because of death and thereby meet their grave untimely. It's normal to plan with death so that we live a life restricted from sins and bad things.

The holy books preach on death and inform us that death will knock on everybody's door. The books explain how we can live our life perfectly with the mind that we will die one day. Almighty God wants us to live a sinless life in a God fearing pattern then he holds our death dates to himself. Death is enough a sermon for those that think and sensible.

Don't be worried of death, live a better life

There lived a man during the crude life, he was tagged the name "if you don't die today, you die tomorrow". He was given this name because he always end his conversation with that phrase, family and friends believed he was Bewitched by his grandmother, who happens to be a witch. Personally, he say those words out of fear, he started saying this when his wife died five years after their union. He love his wife that he can't sleep without seeing her. He believed that life is a pure vanity, everything will finish only God will remain. Sometimes he will be working in his farm and be singing 

"today will sleep, tomorrow we will die.. what is the essence of life…. life is so for me….. but you cannot understand….. life is so for me but you cannot comprehend" 

He lived like a beggar, he decided to eat with the money he earned, he didn't have any property because he was worried about death. What is the essence of buying worldly things that will not follow you to your grave? 

Other people are buying things, spending on their children and living a comfortable life. He only sent his two children to farm, he fed them on available foods, they were maltreated with the food and water they drink. They look fragile compared to their mates from other families.

One day he decided to sell his house because he is getting old and he claimed that his remaining time will be less than five years. It will be better if he quickly sells off his landed property to eat and drink. He sold everything without leaving any property for his children to inherit after his death.

Two years after he sell his property his first born was seriously sick, he need medical attention, at first he was reluctant to take him to the hospital, when they get to the hospital, the boy was diagnosed with cancer of the skin, they need to take him to higher hospital for treatment and the money needed for the operation and other medical bill was above one million Naira. He shouted at first and told the hospital management that his child will not die now and he has no penny to give out. He carried the boy to a native doctor, he prescribed some leaves for him to use on the boy. After two weeks the other one fell sick with the same illness, and they both died of improper treatment. The man lived for another twenty years sound and healthy, Everytime he went out, he would see his children's friends who were doing good and living a happy life. He regretted his actions and changed his preaching.

We should live like we're dying tomorrow (so that we stay closer to God and avoid sin) . At the same time we should also live like people with longlife (so that we will be kind to people and do good because whatever we sow we shall realize).

Do not get worried, don't be anxious, be excited….
