Getting rid of worry! (Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, Chopra)

     I learned a long time ago that when we feel guilt we are living in the past and when we are worried we are living in the future.  The present time cannot exist when we are feeling guilty or worried.  Chopra says in Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, "When your attention is in the past or the future, you are in the field of time, creating aging."  He continues, by asking, "At this instant, where are the past and future?"  His answer is, "Nowhere."  The present moment is the only moment that exists.  If you are still not convinced think of it this way, the past and the future are only mental projections.  That's it.  In other words, we are missing the present moment, the only real moment. 
     When I worry about the future it impinges on my present.  Plus, what good does worrying do anyway?  When I worry it's usually the worst possible outcome, when in reality the worst usually does not happen.  Why do we do this to ourselves?  I think it's a way of protecting ourselves by preparing for the worst so we can handle it if it happens.  I think this is nuts.  Why prepare yourself for the worst when you can prepare yourself for the best?  Then, if it is something really bad, know that God will not give you more than you can handle and that you will have all the tools you need for whatever situation comes your way.  Now, that's refreshing.  Good bye worry...Hello today!
