It is something that we all think about now and then, but sometimes I think about it a lot. This happens when I don't know what to do in the future or the near future. I feel sometimes lost in the thoughts and the thoughts begins to worry me more and more. I don't know if I am over doing it or it is something normal with most people, but sometimes I wish I could see my future so I can relax or change it.

That makes the two of us; I also worry so much about the future I wish I would be given a glimpse of it so I can prepare. But then I also learned that worrying over something that is yet to come with the probability of not happening is pointless. It's like I'm always walking in eggshells because I over-anticipate a lot of things that I tend to enjoy the moment. I still worry, but I tend to just leave it all to God. His will be done.

It would be nice if we could look into a crystal ball and be able to get a preview in what will happen with us in the near future. This might help us to decide a lot about the things we might do today, but again what will the point be if we all the time know that the future might bring us. I guess sometimes it is better to leave something unknown.

It is okay to think and be prepared for the future as we will be going to that direction. But just don't overdo it. The present is more important. Concentrate more on the present because your future will be the effect of what you are doing at the present.

Yes the present is more important then the future and that is something I agree with no doubt. If we worry to much about the future then we will not enjoy the present and it will pass us by without us realising it. The future is something mysterious to us and that is why we might keep worrying about it all the time from time to time.

Haven't you heard "Whatever will be will be"? Nah....most of us will think about it once in a while unless we are really not interested in our own lives. Sometimes, you should do some planning and work towards it. Even if you do know the future, and it looks bright, will it motivate you or will you just relax knowing things will be fine. Maybe if you relax, the picture might change for all you know.
So be very careful what you wish for.

Yes I think I have heard this before and also just flow the stream :) We can't see our future so why worry about it, but it is nice to know that one will not end in a worse shape then you are today. This way you can be prepared for it. Anyway we can't really do anything about but take it one step at a time and hope for the best.

I am not worry about present or future. Because I know future is in Gods hand and present in our hand so enjoy present and leave future on God. May be I will die in future by accident or by any disease but I not worry about it.

I worry a lot about my future. What worries me, is that if I could get married, would I find someone who will love me. Stuffs like that. But I just realized recently that I will no longer take life seriously. I mean-- come what may.

I think that we worry about this too as we age. The pressure to start a family before we get to old and to find the right one to share our life with. This is also something we all worry about. We can't know if we will be with the same person all of our life without any trouble that might end it. So come what may ;)

I do think about the future, I think what I will do in the future and how successful will I be in future. I want to have a good future and so does everyone. So it is ok to think abut the future and every human being thinks about the future. Don't over do it. It is common in every one and if you are doing good now to make your future, then there shouldn't be anything that should worry you. Do what you have to do now so that you don't have to worry about the future and you are confident that your future is bright. Your future depends on your today, so don't worry about the future which is in your hands. Start doing right.

It is true. I don't want to keep thinking about the future and forget the present. It is the most important for us all that we live the present. I don't like wasting it by just thinking about the future, but as you said we can't help it. I guess it is because of the social pressure from our society and family that we have to do go in the future.

According to a research, being a worrier can leads to stress-related factor of having migraine or headache. Eventually, it is also seen in myofascial pain sydrome. Majority in the population have this condition, it is troublesome for people to do their responsibilities. For such reason, we need to find time for relaxation.
