Worry Serves No Useful Purpose « tinybuddha.com

How did it serve me to turn the unknown into a catastrophe before having proof of anything?

If you worry and nothing’s wrong, you’ve wasted precious time. If you worry and something is wrong, you’ve still wasted precious time.

Reminds me of a great quote, which I'm trying to re-type to the best of my ability:

"Ain't no use worryin' 'bout things beyond your control, 'cause if they're beyond your control, ain't no use worryin'. And ain't no use worryin' 'bout things under your control, 'cause if they're under your control, ain't no use worryin'."
