you may well be correct -----

but, that just makes us weak --------

strong beings know that those things that are 'worries' ----------- they are nothing at all that you can do anything about

you find what you CAN do something about and you DO it -

the only defenses in this are ---- the basic hygiene things and keep stress to a minimum ---------------- stress is the number one risk ---------- the 'actual' number one risk in opening one up to pathogenic attack

so - sitting down and worrying about things one has zero control over is the dumbest thing one can do

here's the prescription --

take a big dose of 'don't care' -------------- put the worries in the bin

break out the Billy Connolly old shows -------- watch Mr Bean -

bonk your brains out whenever possible

worried about the future???????????????????

what, pray tell is the point? -- the future is going to be what the future is going to be

in december - we were all worried about bushfires ----------- no one knew or suspected that by April (or the end of April when it really gets real) - that you wouldn't be allowed to go out and there's nowhere to go anyway

here's the lesson - we have absolutely no bloody idea what life will be like by next week - let alone next month let alone by the middle of Oz winter

so - all worry does is give you stress --------- the world is going to be a different shape by the end of the year --------- but, the potential number of different shapes is high

imagine if this were a war --------

what would a smart and wise person hope for?????

then, just do the same

So if someone doesn't know where their next pay check is going to come from, or how they are going to re-stock the grocery cupboard or pay the electricity bill or the next payment on the car or to pay for the dentist for Joahhny's toothache, the solution for them is to simply take,

..."a big dose of "don't care"".

And when a frustrated, despairing husband turns on his wife and slaps her when she asks, "What are we going to do for money?", she should simply say "Meh, don't care."

And parents of a child who commits suicide after months of feeling alienated... they should just say "Don't care."

And when the crime rate rises because people get bored/desperate, and families are terrorised by home invasions and car hijackings, then "Oh, well... don't care".

Bloody pussies.
