Everyone I talk to these days seems to be stressed out about something whether its classes, friends, a new haircut, or what have you. The only thing I can say in response is, “Don’t worry!” Some stress is natural because it motivates people to fulfill their responsibilities, but too much stress is self-inhibiting because it keeps people from thinking clearly about a problem. The trouble is that many people get caught up in a few things that are not exactly as they would like and then they fret. It is very difficult to prioritize what is important and what is not sometimes but it is important to keep calm and remember that life will continue. Robert Frost once said, “In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: it goes on.” And that is the truth.
