Well put, the major cause of our worry is our inability to control the circumstances we find ourselves in. Uncertainty is one of the primary facts of our lives. We seek security, yet in reality we have little control of what happens around us, thus our lives are filled with insecurity. Many of us, when faced the barebones fact that we have so little control of our lives try even harder to gain control or wonder what we’ve done to deserve the circumstances we find ourselves in. As you point out, we are not omniscient nor omnipotent.

I can sympathize with the temptation to worry and the stress this brings during hard economic times. But one thing that this recession has taught me like no other before has been that the origin of worry lies in our desire to find all the answers introspectively within ourselves to remove uncertainty from our lives. Failing to find them there, we fret.

So, the solution?

Don’t look within you for the answers to uncertainty, as if we were omniscient divinities. Look elsewhere. This begins by knowing our limitations; being humble.

I think all of us have lots to do and are busy working and work hard to achieve –that’s part of what can divert us from the joy of life–we get caught up in the “now” and forget about the broader aspects of life that contribute to making life worth living. I too love what I do and work hard to excel, but in the struggle through this recession I lost sight to some extent that life is joyful and that work, no matter how fulfilling, isn’t the sole or even main purpose of life.
