Parenting children often brings up a stream of worries. I wonder if there is something encoded in our DNA where worry=love.
A worry box is my physical container for the stream of worries that surface. I have a little ceramic box where I place brief written slips of my worries. Once recognized and placed inside the box, I attempt to detach from it. I let the Worry Box worry for me.
Opening the lid today, I picked one out at random. I was pleased to find that a particular Worry, with a capital w, had not come to be. I felt uplifted. I'm smiling as I write this.
