Have I been writing a lot about anxiety? I feel like I may have, but it could just be that I am feeling it a lot lately and that’s why I think I talk about it non-stop, including here. I think last time I talked about social anxiety, which is nothing new, but this overall feeling of anxiety has been lingering now with me for two months…I think.
There are changes coming for me and it is not a bad anxiety, just uncomfortable. This will all be a little vague right now, especially that there is still a lot of unknown to me and man, that is uncomfortable. I like planning; I like knowing everything that is coming my way. This can be a helpful trait to some ends, and it can be very limiting in other areas.
If I chose my path in life, it would have limited me so much. I believe everything happens for a reason; I believe the universe decides my fate. My favorite expression: We plan and God laughs. I cannot mess with whatever the universe has in store for me, but that also does not mean I can sit on my hands and just wait for things to come. A friend reminded me of this today. I need to take action, and that’s always the pisser because I question every action I take – Is this right? Is this best? Am I trying to control things? Yada, yada, yada.
But this post is titled ‘Sunday Funday,’ which I only did to trick people into reading it. If you think it is about football, you read. If you think it is about anxiety, you don’t read. Just what my thoughts said, so I am sorry. I did not mean to be deceiving. To make up for it, here is a “fun” cartoon about anxiety, and life, I think folks can relate to. Go Bears!
