I once saw my friend who seemed to be in deep thought some time back and I asked him what was he thinking about? One thing I have learnt in my 22 years of life is even if the face brings itself to lie, the eyes will never lie. My friend said that he was thinking of the huge workload awaiting him on monday morning when he goes back to work and that was a cause for concern for him. My friends and I told him to take it easy and enjoy the weekend till he went to work on monday. I guess worrying is part of human nature.
No human can escape from this disease-worrying. Mothers worry about their children's safety. Children worry about their parents. Parents worry about their employers. Employers worry about their buisnesses. Students worry about their studies. Worry knows no age.It's very easy to dish out words of advice like not to worry and the preacher himself have difficulty following what he says. Most of the times, it's true.
I used to dislike Sundays years ago as the next day was schoolday and it was a day where I would constantly worry about the following day which would be monday blues thinking of the glorious weekend which I had just enjoyed and looking forward to Friday and hoping times flies as fast as possible when it was Monday. It was worse when I went to army as I had to go to my unit on Sunday night and it was one of the shittiest Sundays of my 2 years as I was constantly worrying about going back to my unit as I hated the dull and monotonous lifestyle which will await me. I used to envy my friends who went to their unit on Monday. Once, I was done with my national service, my sundays have improved tremendously.

However, that does not mean that I have stopped worrying at all. My worrying has taken on a new dimension in the form of exams, quizzes and deadlines. The only thing we can do is hope for the best and live for the day. This might perhaps improve our worry levels.
