STOP THAT STRESS


A lot of we live a stressful life, question is why are you so stressed? A friend of mine once asked me, “Why stress yourself and one day you will die?” Crazy and stupid but there is a point there. Many of us are stressed with things that we do not have control over. The world is ending, why should I care? Stop living other people’s lives.
Ever heard of the guy who jumped out of the window when he had his daughter had had an accident? He wanted to rush and save her but he realized his office was at the seventh floor, he also remembered he didn’t have a daughter, he wasn’t even married. The name he had heard wasn’t even his. Luckily he fell on a lorry ferrying mattresses and lived. This guy was stressed up and was in his office thinking deeply.
For quite a while I lived my life always stressed that my girl was giving attention to her friends, who are guys, more attention than she was giving me. This has given me great pains for so long but I asked myself once, what if she was not talking to me? What if she didn’t love me? What if she decides to walk away right now? There are so many what ifs there.
Stay Calm
This made me realize that I was worried about something small while I was still getting the love I needed. The stress could have ruined me. Now I sit here thinking, ‘Why are people so stressed when they could just let go?’
Stop thinking too much and maybe your stress will subside. Stop with the ‘what ifs’. Look for new ways to do things and stop thinking of the past. ‘Tis all gone, you did what you did. Forge on forward and just let your heart rest. Live simple and according to your means.
For those who believe in prayer, let this be a call to pray. Pray every day and God will help you overcome stress.
Love You All.
