Default What types of things do you worry about??

Typically I am not a worrier but will worry about things out of my control...economy, the wars, plane crashes, etc. Everyday things do not bother me because they are usually things I can handle.

What do you worry about and why do you think you worry about it?

Do you worry b/c those things are out of your control?

The only things I really worry about are
1. my aging parents' health
2. my dog's infected eye
3. if I'll ever do anything important with my life

I definitely worry about things that are out of my control...after 9/11 I was afraid to fly so I took flying lessons and I conquered that worry.

Sorry about your dogs eye Is it serious?

Be strict lola! Be strong and strict. I don't know how many times I've told you this but society these days is messed up, as it has been in the past with slavery, racism, holocausts, man hating feminists, and gay bashing.

Have a nice day

I worry about growing old and looking back thinking I did not use all of my potential.

I also worry that I'll never be able to buy my first business.....

We've gone to a specialist for the dog's eye (doggie ophthalmologist?! wow). We've done a bajillion tests. Does not appear to be improving. Hoping she doesn't go blind.

Lola, have faith in what you've taught your daughter and just let her know you'll always be there for her.

About the plane bit; just remember the pilots want to be able to walk away from the ride as much if not more so than you.
