Does Anyone On Here Feel Uneasy About What The Future Holds For Them??

I have learned to live one day at a time. I am 70 but don't look or act like it. I wear bright colors because it boosts my mood. Even with all the pain, I try to do something nice for someone each day...especially if I am out and about. I do a gratitude prayer every morning on the patio and I don't worry about what is going on in the world. I wish my husband wouldn't because it eats him alive and he gets so angry. Sometimes, its very hard to live with. I am a glass half full person and I can't say he is a glass half empty but he is always worried about the future, even though he has worked hard to take good care of us. When I start to slip I remind myself that this is the only day I have and do I want to crowd it up with negative thinking and worry and that usually helps. Getting out for a walk in nature always helps, even though, sometimes its only 15 minutes. My motto is anything is better than nothing.

Being 81, I am concerned about my future. My son and husband have both passed on. I have a loving and very busy niece and a few really good friends. I still live in the same house in an active retirement community. I just wonder how it will all play out. I don’t think about it very often, I’m mostly in the present moment. But when it comes up in conversation, it’s hard to not think about it. But, hey my friends, we’re Warriors all! We can do whatever comes up! 🥰

Sometimes if I have a flare up but I know it will pass. I live one day at a time and try not to worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow will be what it will be. Positive thinking really helps. Also whatever I have no control over I put in Gods hands.

Sometimes, but I try to think about here and now. Cuz, thinking that way makes me anxious. God bless!!
