Worry
WORRY IS WIDESPREAD and is a universal problem...
It is not limited to any one class. The poor and rich, the cultured and the unlearned and both the young and old worry. We worry about how to get money, and, once we have it, we worry about how to keep it or perhaps spend it. We worry about what we have, and we worry about what we do not have. We worry about what we have said and about what we have not said. We worry about what we have one and what we have failed to do. Some worry because they are not married, while others worry because they are. We worry over troubles both real and imaginary. The disturbing events of the world, the insecurity of our jobs, the unstable economic situation causes much worry. We worry about the body, and we worry about the soul. We worry about life, and we worry about death (Garland Elkins).
