Here is a list of what worries people in today's society.

After reading along, you may begin to notice how much we worry, and that maybe we should all step back and relax once in a while.

You may even start laughing at how stupid this all seems. Or you may find this overwhelming at first. Depends on the individual.

Heres a list of the many worries and fears many people have:

GENUINE WORRY:

ANOTHER WORRY (no judgement):

GENUINE WORRY:
Worried about your children having no education

ANOTHER WORRY:

(is eduation better than no education...)

GENUINE WORRY:

ANOTHER WORRY:

Continued:
Worried about your countries government
Worried about another countries government
Worried about bombs on the train
Worried about bombs on the bus
Worried about bombs in your school
Worried about bombs in your shopping centre
Worried about that suspicious white guy
Worried about that suspicious middle eastern guy
Worried about too many immigrants
Worried about not enough immigrants to fill jobs in your industry
Worried about skin cancer
Worried about not having a tan
Worried about being Right
Worried about being Wrong
Worried you sleep too much
worried you sleep too little before you go to bed
Worried about change
Worried that life is too much of the same

As you can see... We worry alot. But, with common sense I think we can easily solve which problems are really worth your attention.

Give yourself a break every once in a while - where you can take yourself away from this stressful life,just for a couple of minutes, and relax.

Oh and another worry:
*worried about which worries to worry about.

See there we go again!

I personally think we should go to war with Canada over their deep religious extremism.

Does anybody here know how Canada got its name?

The Newfies really like the way the United States of America could be easily identifed with the three letters USA, so they decided to come up with a three letter name for their country too and grabbed a scrabble bag. The first letter they picked out was C ey, the second was N ey, and the third was D ey.

It was named after that company that makes soda pop, Canada Dry.

They droped the Dry because that sounded stupid for a country.

But there are some countries that are dry. So they could name themselves Dry if they wanted to.

Why did we call ourselves United States when we were colonies? Shouldn't we have called ourselves United Colonies?
