STRESS-CAN IT BE MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING?

Everyone has stuff. Things to do. A life. How we handle the daily stresses can make or break a good life. There can be a competition of who has more and who is more stressed. But sometimes can it be- much ado about nothing? Everyone has to get up in the morning and has a routine- less stress. Keeping items topped up in the home so there are no midnight jaunts to the supermarket, although it can be fun periodically to shop at odd times! Meetings where just about everyone has diverging opinions and there is no consensus! Why don't they listen to me, I Know I am right????  One cares about dinner and the other one does not. Strategies when life is getting into a tizzy to step back and decide- is this stress really worth it! Is it really stress or just my reaction to it! Having too much to do can tip the scales! Parents with young children have many daily activities just to get through the day! Waiting for major events to finish! Looking forward to some good times but take effort to make them happen! Stress can be self induced. Busy, busy, busy- have to run! So much to do! Then they could be a time in one's life where there is so much less to do. Do you ever hear people talk about boredom and being idle, wanting to be busier! Wanting the stress back! Oh well, much ado about nothing! A Shakespeare play- perhaps time to reread it and take another stab at the topic! Or just cruise through the day with the light being the return home to reflect or not!
Or think about a favourite lake and sail away on your favourite sailboat!
