Worry and Stress

{Post: 266/365}

trying to remember

not to forget

that to worry

and stress

causes me

more worry

and stress 

and keeps my 

worry and stress

circling the drain

swirling and whirling

like a tornado

with only hurt and more

worry and stress

as a result

trying to remember

hakuna matata

and NO worries

NO stress

 but for me

it's hard

Hakuna Matata

hakuna matata

it means

there are no worries

in Swahili

it is a phrase

the muse and I share

when he reminds me

not to stress

to breath

and not to worry

to be happy

when he says it

i smile

because i immediately

begin singing

Hakuna Matata 

in my head

and thinking...

"it's a problem free

philosophy"

but it WORKS

because then I try

NOT to stress

and NOT to worry

but rather 

to breath

and to BE

in the moment

in the now

without the worry

AND with THE JOY

you know

it's a good idea...

don't worry

be happy!
