why worrying is a waste of time...

Hello, SR folks! I just wanted to give you an update on my sister. I was reminded today why worrying is a waste of time and energy. When she didn't write me back last week, I was sure that she was backing out of her plan to go to a rapid detox center, but she wrote me today to say that she has traveled to the center and will be admitted tomorrow. So all that worrying, anger, fear, anxiety I was feeling...what a waste of time! Of course, even if she didn't go to detox, it still would have been a waste of time. Today I was given a happy reminder that I am not in control of her addiction, and all the worrying in the world won't change that. I'm hoping for the best but trying to keep myself grounded, too. I've been very productive at work this week, and doing things I enjoy in my free time. Feeling positive! Thanks for your support!
